Anna is a civil servant and passionate advocate for the environment, particularly the importance of recycling and how it negatively impacts our world. Her personality and passion for the environment is what differentiates Anna; she says this influences how she thinks, acts and speaks. Anna says that she hopes to use the Miss Universe Singapore platform to call for greater efforts in the segregation of waste at domestic and corporate levels for recycling to be more effective.

“I am a strong advocate for greater efforts in recycling. On average, about 7.39 million tonnes of waste are generated per year but only 50% of it is being recycled,” Anna explains. “At this rate, the Semakau Landfill, Singapore’s only landfill, will be full in 10 years time. What will happen thereafter?”
