In the top-three question-and-answer round, contestants were asked what issue they would address and where they would start if they had only one year to create meaningful change for Vietnamese women.
Quynh Anh said she wanted to use her voice and influence to support disadvantaged women and children, giving them opportunities to express themselves and live with greater confidence.

She proposed organising classes and workshops on performance skills. The aim, she said, would not simply be to train models but to help women become more confident and willing to express themselves.
