International talent and event agency Beam Artistes proudly presents the inaugural edition of MR NUSANTARA, a one-of-a-kind male pageant that brings together the best of Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia in a dazzling celebration of heritage, style, and talent. In future years, other nations from the Nusantara region are expected to also be included.
This was announced at the delegates’ sashing ceremony and press conference which was held at the Centrestage in Sungei Wang Plaza this evening.
For the first time, 36 contestants from the three (3) neighboring nations in the Malay Archipelago will compete on the same stage, vying for both national and regional glory – Malaysia and Singapore will be represented by 15 contestants each, while Indonesia will see the participation of 6 delegates.
Due to unfortunate circumstances, a fewer than the initial number of delegates will be representing Indonesia.
In mid-March 2025, Beam Artistes announced the candidates representing Malaysia and Singapore through their official social media platform, Instagram - @beamsearch.my & @beamsearch.sg ; while the candidates representing Indonesia were announced via @beamsearch.id.
Just prior to today’s arrival, some of the delegates from Indonesia were dealt with an unfortunate blow by a certain Indonesian agency, causing their dreams to be sacrificed. This unfortunate incident has resulted in a major drop in the number of participants from Indonesia. The organisers of MR NUSANTARA feels blessed that a small number of delegates still managed to make it here, to proudly represent their beloved country Indonesia despite facing external interference.
In his welcome address Samuel Seow, CEO of Beam Artistes & founder of MR NUSANTARA shared, “MR NUSANTARA is more than just a competition – it is a celebration of shared heritage and unity across the region. We are thrilled to bring together these three nations in a single spectacular event, showcasing the pride, talent, and spirit of the Malay Archipelago”.
“Just as the region has faced significant challenges in the past, the first Mr Nusantara has also faced and braved its challenges,” he added spiritedly.
“The format of the competition had to be changed too but like they say, ‘The show must go on.’,” Seow concluded.
The competition’s pageant week begins today with the arrival of all delegates in Kuala Lumpur and will conclude with the grand finals on 29th May 2025. It will be effectively run based on international pageant criteria.
From the 36 candidates, a delegate from each country will win the title as MR SINGAPORE NUSANTARA 2025, MR INDONESIA NUSANTARA 2025 & MR MALAYSIA NUSANTARA 2025.
These 3 titleholders will then battle it out through a thrilling twist in the competition, whereby the coveted title of MR NUSANTARA CHAMPION will be decided purely by online voting, making this the first pageant of its kind to fully empower fans in shaping the final outcome.
The stakes are high, as the winner of MR NUSANTARA will walk away with a prize package worth USD 80, 000 in cash and prizes, and which also includes a brand-new car.
The grand finals of MR NUSANTARA 2025 will be held at the classy Galaxy Banquet Hall @ HGH Convention Centre in Sentul, Kuala Lumpur, with guests being served scrumptious Malaysian food.
The organsers hope all of you will come and support these talented delegates irrespective of their countries, as they embrace the spirit of ‘Serumpun Nusantara’. The organisers are also thrilled to announce that sensation Malaysian girl group DOLLA will be gracing and performing during the grand finals.
