Miss Trans Global 2020 Mela Habijan, who talked about diversity and inclusivity, expounded on how talented and diverse the LGBTQIA+ are in terms of skills and talents.

She says, “I am here as an LGBTQIA+ advocate telling people that being trans, being LGBTQIA+ is beautiful and we can do so many things. We can be whoever we want to be, we can be in politics, we can be in engineering, we can be in tech like Globe. We can be anywhere. All we need to have are opportunities.”

She also encouraged aspiring content creators to not give up on their dreams.

Nadine says, “Don’t give up on your dreams because it’s all about timing. I almost gave up on mine. A couple of years later, things started to turn and my dreams started coming true, so, minsan kasi, hindi pa yun mangyayari ngayon because there’s such a thing as the right timing. If it’s not the time for you yet, it only means that you’re not yet ready for what you’re about to receive.”
