Gadis Jelita Dari Sarawak Larissa Ping Dinobatkan Sebagai Miss World Malaysia 2018

Dia baru saja berumur 19 tahun tapi Larissa Ping kini perlu menggalas tanggungjawab yang berat setelah menjuarai pertandingan ratu cantik Miss World Malaysia 2018 di Kuching hujung minggu lepas.

Anak jati Sarawak ini telah mengalahkan 11 orang lagi peserta untuk mendapatkan gelaran juara, mahkota, trofi, wang tunai sebanyak RM30,000 dan hadiah lain. Wow, meriahnya!

Tapi hadiah-hadiah ini sebenarnya datang dengan pelbagai jenis tugas dan kewajipan yang berat. Salah satunya adalah mewakili Malaysia di pertandingan Miss World 2018 di Sanya, China pada 8 Disember. Woooh, scary!

Larissa juga perlu memainkan peranan sebagai Duta Pelancongan Sarawak untuk tahun depan, menurut Menteri Pelancongan, Kesenian, Budaya, Belia dan Sukan Sarawak, Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah.

“Saya yakin yang menerusi acara berprestij ini, anda akan boleh membantu mempromosikan negeri Sarawak di persada dunia serta ecotourism negara pada masa yang sama,” katanya kepada Larissa di majlis tersebut.

Nampaknya Larissa berpotensi untuk berjaya kerana dia juga telah diberi gelaran Miss Photogenic dan pengiktirafan Top Talent di acara yang sama tempoh hari.

Jom kita tengok komen wanita muda ini yang ingin memperjuangkan maruah dan hidup orang asli di Sarawak.

I know my life is about to change, but I pray that it will be for the betterment of myself, my family, and most importantly for my community. There’s so much more for me to learn and improve, but I am certain that with the Lord’s guidance I will be able to make it through to deliver the best. I have so many people to thank personally because I have had a team that was not intentionally made, but people just came to offer help to prepare me for the competition. It was indeed a rollercoaster ride but I cherished every single moment being in the competition especially because the organizers (Creative Team Lab) did an amazing job to make sure all finalists were well taken care of. Huge thank you to Sarawak Tourism Ministry, @carlingtoday @kullehgrasi @meejord @ennettefaith @andyphephotography @kelvinchan89 @caithlllin_ @punguborneo @oziebalannyaring @bridgettaja @seanwongzw @smythwong @bjarnewong , @pitnapatdesigner (my dress designer!!!!), @orengji (my make up artist!!!), @boymaurice (my hairdresser!!!), @salondepelo , Mdm Ing Ing, Dr George, all crews, all my family members and friends who flew all the way, and the rest of you who were constantly giving me your endless support. You know who you are. I hope all of you will continue to journey with me as Miss World Malaysia 2018. I apologise for not being able to reply every single one of you but know that all your well wishes and prayers are all I need. God bless!

Praise the Lord. First photo I would like to post as Miss World Malaysia would be this. God gave me parents who are perfect role models to me and they are the ones who have made me who I am today. All I want to see is to put a smile on people’s face especially my parents, and I dedicate this winning to them. ❤️ Thank you mum and dad for being my biggest supporters and my strongest backbone. Here’s to a new beginning, and more lives being touched. Amen.
