According to [Philippine Daily Inquirer], with the next Miss Universe pageant rumored to be taking place in Costa Rica in December, just over half a year since the last competition was staged in the United States, the Miss Universe Philippines (MUPh) organization announced that the country’s representative to the next edition of the global tilt would be crowned in September.

Reigning queen Rabiya Mateo’s successor will be chosen from a field of 100 delegates, who will be named on July 19, after a grueling three-day virtual interview session with applicants from all over the country.

On Aug. 31, MUPh will release the list of 30 delegates who will participate in the live coronation ceremonies on Sept. 25, at a venue to be announced later.

When the Inquirer asked Mateo how she plans to spend the remainder of her reign, the Ilonga educator said, “I still want to continue being an ambassador for education.  The job doesn’t stop even if the crown is no longer on your head.”

MUPh designated her as its ambassador for education shortly after the coronation ceremonies held in Baguio City in October last year.

According to [Philippine Daily Inquirer], Mateo said she hopes to still use her influence “to reach out to more people.” She said she found a company in the US willing to sponsor 200 laptop units to help underprivileged schoolchildren cope with the demands of online learning.
