Meet the official candidates for MVW 2013 – Miss Hong Kong 2013 – Rehana Seljan

To get the candidates for Miss Virtual World 2013 known a bit better I asked all of them the same 7 questions. I thought to follow the challenge it is always great to know a bit about all the ladies before and see who you wanna give your love and support to

The lovely Kay Fairey helped, to translate the japanese into english so we all can read the answers

So, meet Miss Hong Kong 2013, Rehana Seljan…

WM: “Please introduce yourself and tell us about your personality and tell us why you entered MVW 2013.”
RS: ” ・天然ドジっ子で、おっとりとした性格。マイペース。
・大きなチャレンジをしたくてMVWにエントリーしました。
・わたしは日本人ですが、父が子供の頃まで中国籍だったので、ミス香港になることができて、大変光栄に思っています。                                (I tend to be a blunder and quiet/composed.  I entered MVW because I wanted to test myself with a big challenge.  I am Japanese by nationality but my RL father had a Chinese nationality during his child days and had later changed it to be Japanese, so I feel very honored that I have been chosen as a finalist and was able to become Miss Hong Kong.)

WM: “What do you think will be the best thing about taking part in this contest? What do you think will be the worst?”
RS: ” ・良いと思っている点: 自分へのチャレンジが出来ること
・悪いと思っている点: 時差の関係で生活時間が不規則になること”
( The best part, I think, is that I can face a big challenge and the worst part is that my RL time will be messed up because of the big  SLT time difference.)

WM: “Some anonymous people say this competition is rigged. What are your thoughts on this?
RS: ” ・名前を明かして、堂々と発言すればいい”
(If they have issues, they should voice them with their name and not complain anonymously.)

WM: “What qualities do you have that make you the perfect MISS VIRTUAL WORLD?”
RS: ” ・自分の世界を持っており、また、それを世界に発信したいと思っている
・チャレンジャーであり、MVWのチャレンジを楽しむ心構えを持っていること
・SLにいる色々な方と知り合えるきっかけになると思っている”
(I think I will make a perfect Miss Virtual World because I possess a world of my own and I have always wanted to express myself to the world.  I am a challenger and I am actually enjoying the challenge given to me by this pageant.  I also think this will be a great opportunity to get to know a lot of people from various parts of the world so I am totally enjoying this experience.)

WM: “What type of personality should never be chosen to win MISS VIRTUAL WORLD?”
RS: ” ・チャレンジを良しとしない人
・他人を貶めたり、卑下する人”
(People who I see unfit for the title are people who do not really enjoy challenges and also those who envy others, become jealous or defame them.)

WM: “What do you hope to gain from your experience in MVW 2013?”
RS: ” ・今まで無理なことだと自分に言い聞かせていたことからの解放
・自分に自信を持つ勇気を得たいと思っている”
(I wanted to make this a proof to myself that I can accomplish things I never thought was possible.  I think this pageant will give me courage and confidence.)

WM: “How would winning this title change you?”
RS: ” ・自分自身に自信を持つことが出来るようになる
・より自分以外の人に心を配れる人間になりたいと思う”                                                                                                                                                 (I think it will change me mostly by giving me confidence.  With that confidence, I wish I could become somebody who can think about and care about others around me at all times.)
