Megaworld International

Grace, purpose, and pride in Filipino heritage filled the halls of Alliance Global Tower in Uptown Bonifacio, Taguig City as Megaworld International welcomed three outstanding Filipina-Australian beauty queens for a special collaboration. Held at the company’s headquarters on 36th Street corner 11th Avenue, the visit was more than a courtesy call—it was a celebration of global Filipino identity and a powerful content partnership that bridges communities across continents. This special event, held on May 7, 2025, marked a collaborative content initiative led by Megaworld International, in line with its mission to bring the Filipino dream closer to kababayans worldwide. The queens participated in a marketing shoot that showcased Megaworld’s signature lifestyle concept: Live, Work, Play, Learn, and Invest in the Philippines.

A trio of empowered queens

Leading the visit was Ms. Karenza De Leon, crowned Miss Philippines Australia 2024 and currently serving as Miss Universe Philippines – Camarines Norte 2025. Her elegance and strong advocacy for Filipino identity made her an inspiring ambassador for cultural pride and investment in the homeland. She was joined by Ms. Kiara Prieto-McCarthy, who holds the titles Miss Charity Queen Australia 2024 and First Runner-Up in Miss Philippines Australia 2024, bringing with her a voice grounded in purpose and empathy—values that align with Megaworld International’s own initiatives in community building and global engagement. Rounding out the royal trio was Ms. Amelia Martins, the spirited and delightful Little Miss Philippines-Australia 2024 and Little Miss Charity Queen 2024, who at just a young age represented the next generation of global Filipinos embracing their heritage with pride.
