    #TARAMAGPARUL AND #TEAMPH FOR THE WIN! Maggie Wilson (left) and Parul Shah (middle) receive the check amounting to US$100,000 from HK Ang, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Sony Pictures Television Networks Asia.

    The Filipina beauty queens arrived first at the final pit stop in survived challenges in six countries, 12 cities, and over 12,000 kilometers to beat out 10 teams and claim the US$100,000 cash prize. Malaysian beauty queens Chloe Chen and Lee Yvonne were hot on their heels in second place while Filipino celebrity couple Rona and Eric “Eruption” Tai finished third.

    THE WINNING MOMENT. Watch this video to relive the emotions as Maggie and Parul head for the final pit stop.

    The finale saw all 3 teams racing through Bali, Indonesia where they had to assemble a penjor, a Balinese symbol for devotion, climb a panjat pole, search for a lobster trap in the middle of the ocean, and relive each and every pit stop of the race in the form of coconuts.

    “It was such a relief to win because the money can help my family, especially my Dad who suffered a stroke. He taught me to never give up in life and I did this to prove that no matter what life throws at you, never give up,” said Parul.

    This makes it two straight wins for the Philippines at The Amazing Race Asia, with Richard Herrera and Richard Hardin winning it all during season 4.
