In a move to find the perfect ambassadress to herald their advocacy, Miss Asia Pacific

face, physique, and grace.

The much-awaited pageant season officially kicked-off with the Press Presentation on 

September 18, 2018 at Conrad Manila Hotel. The event was attended by their board of 

directors, guests from the media, and the pageant’s VIP sponsors. In the coming days, 

the candidates will be going through a series of major events namely the National 

Costume Competition, Swimsuit Competition, Evening Gown Competition, and Talent 

Night and will be culminated by the Grand Coronation night on October 4, 2018 at the 

Newport Performing Arts Theatre in Resorts World Manila.

Last year, Brazil brought home the crown for the first time in Miss Asia Pacific International 

history. With her undeniable good looks and confidence when addressing an audience,

The 25-year-old stunner, Francielly Ouriques, was a strong contender from the very start 

of last year’s season. Since then, she’s been working hand in hand to forward the 

organization’s advocacy to foster love and appreciation of cultural, physical, spiritual, and 

personal diversities.
