Obeñita now holds the country's second Miss Intercontinental crown, after Karen Gallman in 2018.

During the Q&A portion, she was asked f speaking English is important for Miss Intercontinental.

"As an ambassador, I don't think that speaking a specific language is very important here in Miss Intercontinental or any pageant at all. As long as that woman is a woman of power and grace, commitment, and intelligence," she said.


Mexico, England, Seychelles, Canada and Colombia are among the runners-up, in order.

Last July, Cindy won the Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental crown during the Binibining Pilipinas coronation night held at the Araneta Coliseum.
