During the final Q & A, the top five were
asked the same question “ If crowned Miss Bohol 2024, how would you encourage
local communities to actively participate in the conservation efforts of Bohol
as a global geopark for the benefit of future Boholano questions?”
Ms. Tentativa’s response “ I'm gonna convince
the community tonight, right here, right now in the Miss Bohol stage that the
designation of Geopark is very telling of the undeniable beauty of Bohol and
the rich culture of the Boholanos so let's all be committed because this is us,
this is our culture and we should be proud so that we can all be aware and
unanimous in showing the world the beauty of Bohol and ensuring the
preservation for the next generation and for the rest of the world to enjoy.
Daghang salamat"
