She also got resounding cheers when she answered the Facebook question for all five finalists which asks ‘What is the greatest contribution of your country to the entire world?’
“I believe that my country has been an example to be followed for the rest of the countries. We are a persevering people no matter what [obstacles] we have in our way, and we continue fighting for that which we want to accomplish… We are leaders in many different matters and I am quite proud to represent that before all of you,” she answered.
