In her day job, Wenanita Angang sifts through large volumes of data to extract meaningful insights and communicate those insights to stakeholders, but in the months leading up to March 9, 2024, she carved out time to prepare for the 71st Miss World Festival in India.

Wenanita won Miss World Malaysia in August 2022. However, due to several issues, there was no Miss World 2023 pageant; the next international pageant was held in March 2024, officially called the 71st Miss World Festival.
