BALAYAN, Batangas — Pride and cheers filled the streets of Balayan as Prince Jefrey O. Hernandez, a distinguished BS Business Administration alumnus of STI College Balayan, returned home on November 3, 2025, after winning the prestigious Masters of the World 2025 pageant held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia last October 20.
Hernandez, who previously earned the titles Mr. STI Balayan 2006 and Mr. STI Philippines 3rd Runner-up 2006, as well as the STI Philippines Distinguished Alumni Award in 2023, was warmly welcomed by his alma mater and the local community through a vibrant homecoming parade.
The motorcade started at the Balayan Government Center, passing through Poblacion, and returning to the BGC, where hundreds of residents and students gathered to celebrate his international victory. Adding glamor to the event, the STI Balayan Queens & Kings — John Cedric Ardina, Denisse G. Atienza, Kim Tyrone Cruzado, Suchi Kaye Lim, John Reyn Espina, Czarina Buenaflor, Ali Desilos, Chady Mae Carenan, and James Carl Villalobos — joined the parade to show their support.
Excited STI Balayan students lined up in front of the school, waving flag lets and cheering as Hernandez’s convoy passed by, expressing pride for their fellow STIer who has brought international recognition to the institution.
Aside from his pageant achievements, Hernandez is also a successful entrepreneur — the Owner and CEO of Royal Prince Aesthetic Slimming Center, which now has 12 branches across Metro Manila, Cavite, Laguna, and Batangas.
On his facebook page, Prince thanked STI Balayan for its unwavering support and the love from his second family, sharing that STI Balayan is part of his success.
The celebration not only honored Hernandez’s global achievement but also inspired students to pursue excellence and is a testament to STI’s motto, “Be More.”
