Intellectual people from every field economic, political and social came and taught us about different facets and increased our knowledge. We were taught about presenting ourself, communicating and public speaking skills. It makes a big transformation within us. No other training could have matched the diversity of training even in Miss World or Miss Universe contest.So that is how we changed and transformed.
