MAN OF THE WORLD CONQUERS PH STAGE!

With 27 contenders competing for the coveted title, Man of the World, a prestigious male pageant, is sailing to the Philippines for the seventh consecutive year, targeted at promoting education through the theme Masculinity with Responsibility.

In the centre of Quezon City, each delegate pulled their movements while showing off their national costumes with beyond-the-line stories. Few of these narratives were driven by the tradition; others came from respective deities, rituals, or the rich biodiversity of their nation. However, they are all rooted in their goal to share their cultures on a global scale.

“On behalf of Prime Event Productions Philippines Foundation Incorporated and the Man of the World organisation, I would like to thank everyone for supporting our pageant every year,” Mr Carlos Morris Galang, President of Prime Event Productions Philippines Foundation Incorporated, expressed his gratefulness for each individual who devotes attention to the pageant year after year.

In a similar vein, the Honorary Chairman of the 7th edition of Man of the World and Chairman of the Board of Judges, Ms Jamila Paz, also left a message stating, “I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Sir Carlos Morris for entrusting me with this role and for giving me the opportunity to be part of a platform that celebrates not only physical beauty but also character, purpose, and global advocacy.”

Three of them triumphantly carried sashes as they took home the main award, Best in National Costume: David Granda from Ecuador (Gold), San Thar from Myanmar (Silver), and Sittichok Panitloedtewa from Thailand (Bronze).

It is critical to bear in mind that male pageants are about more than just a person’s appearance or physical attributes; like women, they have their own purposes, which consist of advocating for their fellowmen and championing causes they support. The wealthy perspectives that arise from their minds and travel deep within their souls are at the rear of their bodies.

In a few days, one of them is going to take the crown and title at the much-anticipated coronation night at SM North EDSA, Skydome. Their spirit will endure and live forever with the names and colors of their home and the brotherhood they formed, regardless of where they belong, whatever the languages are, and how diverse the traditions are.
