Our very own Ahtisa Manalo nailed it once again as she now secured her place as a 3rd runner-up at the 74th Miss Universe pageant. Every ounce of effort, from preparations to her performance on coronation night, has truly paid off.

Locals are still proud and grateful for Manalo, who fearlessly raised our flag high and shone brightly on the global stage, representing the vibrant and radiant side of the Philippines amidst adversities.

Ahtisa's poised and confident presence throughout the competition was consistently illuminating. From her national costume to her final walk, she embodied the brilliance, hospitality, and grace of the Filipinos.

Thank you, Ahtisa!
