She has won a cash prize of P10,000, jewellery set worth P8,000 from Malaika Gemstones and project money of P50,000. She beat other 13 finalists from seven different RADP settlements. Mompoloki Rachocho from Zoroga in the Central District was crowned the first princess while 22-year-old Morelo Sango from Khwai in the Northwest won the second princess title. Rachocho won a cash prize of P7,000 while Sango walked away with P5,000.

It was a tight competition from the onset, but Baarkath outlined her intentions to win the title from the beginning by impressing the judges during the traditional attire segment.
