Read more about her below.
I would like to welcome all those who follow Miss World around the world and in particular my fans to the Miss World 2012 competition. My name is Atong Demach and I proudly represent South Sudan, a newly independent country in Africa (only a little less than a year old!). I am 23 years old, excited and honoured to represent my country for the first time at Miss World and proud to stand for Beauty with a Purpose – all of us who will compete stand for the values of humanity, the beauty and strength of women in our world.
I am from a town called Bor on the river Nile, am studying translation at university at Juba also on the river Nile, and aim to be involved in helping all needy children while I also hope to help work towards protecting our precious environment.
We hope you will enjoy following us on our journey and please support me on mine!”
Atong is in her final year at university studying translation. Her future ambition is to help children have a better future through improving their education and environment. Hobbies include singing, playing basketball and writing. Atong describes herself as a simple, loving and caring young woman.
