THE Sangguniang Panlalawigan passed a resolution congratulating and commending Dr. Ellen Poyaoan-Santos for winning the title Elite Mrs. Universe 2022 in the recently concluded Mrs. Universe Pageant held in Sydney, Australia on December 4, 2022.

Resolution No. 968, authored by Third District Board Member Vici Ventanilla cited that Dr. Poyaoan-Santos, 46, who is from Barangay Bliss-Pagal, San Carlos City, bested 50 candidates from all over the world  to win the prestigious Mrs. Universe Pageant held at the Grand Pavillon, Rose Garden in Sydney.

In that pageant, she also garnered special awards, namely Mrs. Universe Official Ambassador, Best in Advocacy, Best in National Costume and Best in Talent.

The Mrs. Universe Pageant was organized by an Australian-based entity that seeks to empower, engage and inspire women of all cultures and background.

The resolution acknowledged that Dr. Poyaoan-Santos made her province and country proud by winning the Mrs. Universe pageant.

The resolution was awarded by the SP to Mrs. Poyaoan-Santos when she called on the SP during its regular session last January 16 presided by Vice Governor Mark Lambino.

Before accepting the resolution, Dr. Poyaoan-Santos said although the Filipino representative to the Miss Universe beauty contest in New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S. did not make it in that pageant, she was able to bring home the title of Mrs. Elite Universe on her own.

In San Carlos City, Mrs. Poyaoan-Santos is continuing her advocacy of empowering women by giving them livelihood so that they can earn income to boost the earnings of their husbands, and scholarships to students. (Leonardo Micua)
