I came across a bit of information about a contest called Miss Tourism Queen International.
I have never heard of this contest before, have you?
Here's what Wikipedia has to say about it ~
Miss Tourism Queen International is an annual Chinese-based international beauty contest established in 2004. In July 2007, Miss Tourism Queen International set the record for the most participants in an international beauty contest with 108 women competed, not just from participating countries and territories, but also contestants from provinces known as tourist destinations like Bali and Fernando de Noronha, and regions of special interest like Borneo, Siberia, and Hawaii.
Miss Tourism Queen International was founded by Mr. Charlie See and currently owned by Exclusive Resources Marketing Pte Ltd or ERM, which is private limited company incorporated, based in Singapore.
China sure is busy lately....
You know, with Olympic protests going on and the Tibet crisis....
I don't know where they find the time for a beauty contest.
And this contest goes on for days...March 20-April 12th.
The contest just doesn't seem typical of China to me.
Here is the winner of the bikini portion of the contest, Miss Canada.
The winner must be physically fit.
