Best Actress in Distinctive Int’l Arab Festivals Awards 2022 hails from Baguio City


Baguio City, Philippines – The newly awarded Best Actress in Distinctive International Arab Festivals Awards 2022 is a beauty queen-turned-actress from the Summer Capital of the Philippines.

“Nothing ever beats the feeling of winning something for your own country because of your own hard work,” she added.
