A Historic Milestone in the 55th Asian Bodybuilding and Physique Sports Championships
In a stellar showing at the 55th Asian Bodybuilding and Physique Sports Championships held in Kathmandu, Nepal, Team Malaysia made headlines, amassing three gold medals. Among these golden triumphs, the most groundbreaking was Philomena Dexclyn Siar's victory, making her the first Sarawakian woman to clinch an Asian bodybuilding title.
Rising Star: Philomena Dexclyn Siar's Path to Victory
At 40 years old, Philomena Dexclyn Siar is far from a newcomer to the sport.

Notably, this win was not just any win; it was the culmination of years of unyielding effort.
More than a Win: Philomena’s Emotional Quotient

Already planning her next steps, she is intensely focused on the world championships in South Korea this November.
