After more than half a century left stumbling through the beauty pageant wilderness, Miss Universe Myanmar returned to Myanmar in 2013, giving pageants a popularity boost which hasn’t waned since.


But with local talent now leaving Myanmar’s shores to compete in coveted pageants such as Miss Universe, Miss World and Miss Earth, one local company is looking to create a pageant to buck the current ‘beauty drain’.


“Miss and Mister Tourism and Culture Universe” is poised to become Myanmar’s first international beauty pageant after licence was granted by the government to Miss & Mister Tourism And Culture Universe Co., Ltd, which owns the copyright to both pageants.


Missosology Pageant Media, the beauty pageant magazine and world leading online forum also endorsed the plan.


“Our mission is to promote Myanmar’s tourism sector,” said Ko Lamai Robin, managing director of Miss & Mister Tourism and Culture Universe.


“During the competition period, some of the activities as well as the grand finale will be broadcast not only locally but also internationally. Through this, many people around the world will notice Myanmar.”


Ko Lamai Robin believes that the international pageant will be a good opportunity to showcase the talent and quality of Myanmar’s young people to the world.


“We hope that it will be a very effective way to introduce our country to the outside world,” he said.


The contest will run from February 1 to February 10 next year with contestants participating in a national costume contest, talent shows and fashion week, with the grand finale to take place February 10.


As part of the pageant, contestants will also visit Inle Lake, Bagan, Mandalay and the beachside town of Ngwe Saung for video shooting.


Miss & Mister Tourism and Culture Universe has already contacted talent agents in 17 countries including Canada, South Korea, and, Brazil, but so far only ASEAN neighbours the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand have selected their representatives for the contest. The final country list will be announced on December 5.
