Miss Universe Organization (MUO) part-owner Anne Jakrajutatip has paid tribute to the beauty of the Philippines through a series of photographs featuring reigning queen Sheynnis Palacios posted on social media.
Palacios is seen wearing an intricately beaded gold “terno” gown in various poses, with different scenic spots in the Philippines as her background. They were posted on the Thai media mogul’s Facebook page early morning on May 10.
“[MUO] would love to honor the nation of Thousands Islands, The Philippines, by creatively promoting the great tourism places through the love and emotion of our titleholder in the graceful collective photo album,” Jakrajutatip posted on social media.
She also wrote the captions “One of the Best Restinations in the World, The Philippines,” “Love to visit your respected nation, The Philippines [Philippine flag emoji],” and “Great places to visit in The Philippines [Philippine flag emoji]” as Jakrajutatip shared Palacios’ photos featuring Boracay, Cebu, Palawan, Bohol, Batanes, Camiguin, Siargao, Dumaguete, Coron and Siquijor in the background.

Palacios had just wrapped up the Philippine leg of her Asian tour which also took her to Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and China. She was in Manila from May 1 to 7, then proceeded to her next destination, India.
Jakrajutatip did not accompany the reigning queen in Manila, who was instead joined by MUO Vice President for International Relations Mario Bucaro and Vice President for Global Partnerships Olivia Quido-Co, a California-based Filipino beauty entrepreneur who is also the president of the Miss Universe Skincare and Spa.
The Thai magnate had previously visited Manila with then-reigning Miss Universe R’Bonney Gabriel in May 2023. The reigning queen stayed longer to help crown Michelle Marquez Dee as Miss Universe Philippines.
Bucaro had revealed at the 2024 Miss Universe Philippines Sponsors Night at the Manila Hotel on May 6 that MUO will return for the national pageant’s coronation night on May 22. But he did not elaborate any further on who will be back, and whether the party will include Palacios or Jakrajutatip.
