Top 6 Questions and Answers
Miss Venezuela: What action have you done to influence and inspire others?
Answer: The action I have done for my society with my experience is through education and love for the children. I think that the most important for the next generation are love and education.
Miss Colombia: Can you tell us about a successful woman who has inspired you to be here tonight?
Answer: The woman who inspired me is Shakira, our Colombian artist. She has received a lot of success through discipline, and perseverance for all her intelligence. She is the woman who has inspired me because she is from Colombia, me too. She reached her dreams through hard work and dedication and I want to be just like her.
Miss Brazil: If you become Miss Charm 2023, what will you do to connect and promote different cultures of the world?
Answer: Culture is my passion, as a commercial pilot – culture is my no 1 interest. Coming from a well-traveled family, having lived all over the world across five countries. The way to promote culture is to unite people. There is a universal language and we must engage in learning and breaking the language barrier. It is one of the most difficult things we have when it comes to promoting culture. It will be my way of helping not only culture but education and the youth. Breaking those barriers to engage everyone. Thank you.
Miss Philippines: What is your definition of Miss Charm?
Miss Charm is someone who looks beyond the difficulties in life and works hard to overcome them. I grew up being told that I would never amount to anything because I belong to a poor neighborhood, a poor family where I had no parents. I have worked so hard for the last seven years to become Miss Philippines and I have worked hard to be the next Miss Charm 2023. Thank you so much.
Miss South Africa: What is sustainable tourism and what is your solution to maintain and develop sustainable tourism? Answer: Xin chào Vietnam! I believe that sustainable tourism is about all of us trying to find ways to balance our nature but rather decrease the negativity about tourism. Secondly, we also talk about diversity such as different cultures. Therefore we need to be able to sustain so that when we get together it is all becoming unison because each and everyone sitting here has something to share and if we all combine our cultures, we do something to embrace.
Miss Indonesia: Nowadays the world is more open than ever, what is your solution for acculturation without the concept of cultural appropriation? Answer: I work as a content creator who promotes culture and tourism. The one way to get out of cultural appropriation is to give credit to what does not belong to us. There is admiration behind different cultures we want to give appreciation for but giving credit is always one solution. Thank you.
Top 3 Final Common Question asked to all the finalists.
Final Question: Every morning when you wake up, what do you think is the meaning of life? What are you living for?
Miss Indonesia: I live to be a blessing to others, I keep that in mind each day. I work to dedicate my life to teaching languages to children in an orphanage because I believe that by being a parent to them, I guide them. I could leave a legacy for them in a better future. This legacy is something I want to continue if I become the next Miss Charm International. Thank you.
Miss Philippines: The meaning of life is to be of help to one another, it is all about putting the community first before oneself. I learned this growing up as an orphan, I started to learn this more from being with Vietnamese people tonight.

I hope with my success here tonight, they see themselves in me and believe in themselves because of me. Thank you so much.
