The 24 year-old stunner from Iloilo City, who has been making a buzz with her recent photo shoots, is already in the United States of America for the pre-pageant activities.

In an ABS-CBN News report, Rabiya was quoted to have said, “Sa mga kababayan ko sa Pilipinas, nandito na ako ngayon sa Los Angeles. Pinapangako ko na gagawin ko lahat ng posibleng gawin para maiuwi ulit natin ang korona sa bayan.”

Armed with grace and confidence, Rabiya hopes to bring joy and pride to the country as she tries to duplicate the recent success of beauty queens Catriona Gray and Pia Wurtzbach, who won the prestigious international competition in 2018 and 2015, respectively. The Philippines also took home the crown in 1969 (Gloria Diaz) and 1973 (Margie Moran).
