Vietnamese representative Mai Ngo delivered a powerful impression with her confident bikini performance at the Miss Charm 2025 semifinals.

Held with the participation of more than 30 countries, the Miss Charm 2025 semifinal featured hosts Hong Dang (2nd runner-up, Miss Universe Vietnam 2023) and Alana Deutsher-Moore (1st runner-up, Miss Charm 2024). Reigning Miss Charm 2024, Rashmita Rasindran of Malaysia, also joined the judging panel for this year’s competition.

As the host country’s representative, Mai Ngo stood out in all three competition segments. Born in 1995, she impressed not only with her performance but also with her composure and commanding presence on stage.

Aside from Mai Ngo, nearly 40 contestants from across continents showcased their ideal figures and natural charm in a collection of swimsuits designed exclusively for the pageant.
