14th Mister International contestants depart for Manila, Philippines
After a 3-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 14th Mister International competition is all set to take place in Manila, Philippines.
Over 30 contestants from across the world are now heading to the host country to compete for the international title. New countries to debut this year are Albania, Cuba, Laos, and Sierra Leone.
Following the sad passing of its founder Alan Sim, the Mister International organization announced that the upcoming show must go on.
An official statement read: "Mister International is a global brand built by the vision of our founder. It is his dying wish to preserve the vision and its noble cause for the next generation."
Mister International 2022 is scheduled to be held on Sunday, October 30 at the New Frontier Theater in Cubao, Quezon City where the longest-reigning Mister International Trinh Văn Bao of Vietnam will finally relinquish his throne.
