There is no word on when and where the next Miss Asia-Pacific International pageant will be held. The last Miss Asia-Pacific International pageant was held in Guangzhou, China, in 2005. The next pageant that was supposed to follow it in 2008 was postponed due to lack of sponsors and participants.
Suzette Hernandez of Batangas was the 1st runner-up while Sharon Grace Angel of Lapu-Lapu City was 2nd runner-up, Ms. Photogenic, and Mutya ng Pilipinas Top Model of the World. Angel will compete in next year's Top Model of the World. The date and place have still to be announced.
