Mr. Kiribati on the other hand is an aspiring sign language interpreter and will work with TAK to advocate for tourism awareness to the deaf society in Kiribati and in tourism source markets.
The event was also attended by the organizing committee of the Kiribati pageant and major sponsor of the event, the Shipping Agency of Kiribati (SAOK).
