It was not only Bea Rose Santiago's beauty and grace which bagged for her the Miss International crown for the Philippines but also her wit and eloquence which was reflected in her heartfelt speech during the finals night (check out the complete list of winners HERE).
The top 5 candidates were given 30 seconds to answer the final question "What will you do if you win Miss International?" and here's what Bea Santiago said:
"The whole world saw how my country, the Philippines, suffered. The agony of my people was felt. But one by one, country to country came to help. I would like to thank all the nations that helped my country. In our darkest hours, you have opened my eyes and my heart in how important it is if we all just support each other. If I become Miss International, I will uphold international camaraderie to sustain the spirit for symphaty and to continually share the message of hope. I believe that whatever calamity may come to us, as long as we have each other, there will be hope. Thank you."
