CEO Nawat speaks out about the 2nd runner-up's crown being removed, the title causing a stir

After the shocking incident at the Miss Grand International 2024 finale, CEO Nawat Itsaragrisil officially spoke out about the possibility of dismissing Myanmar's 2nd runner-up Thae Su Nyein.

This is the latest development after the incident in which the Myanmar country director removed the beauty queen's crown right on stage.

Through the clip posted on TikTok account, Mr. Nawat - CEO of the Organization Miss Grand International said there will be an official announcement about the beauty's dismissal or not.

According to his assessment, the Myanmar contestant has many positive points such as seriousness, thorough preparation and intelligence beyond her age. However, the beauty still lacks maturity, shown by her inability to control her emotions and unprofessional reaction after receiving the award. Specifically, she did not participate in interviews with the press and left the event abruptly.

He also expressed caution when speaking about this issue on TikTok, due to concerns that his account could be locked as has happened to some other accounts when mentioning beauty pageants.

Thae Su Nyein had her crown removed by the Myanmar Country Director on stage:

Previously, on the evening of October 25, right after being named as 2nd Runner-up, Thae Su Nyein had her crown removed by the Myanmar Country Director while she was giving a press interview. Immediately afterwards, the crew quickly took the beauty out of the auditorium in a sobbing state. The video recording the incident went viral on social media.

CEO Nawat is aware of the incident and will review it carefully before making a final decision. His move comes after the Myanmar country director posted a controversial status on his personal page announcing his "break up" with the Miss Grand International contest.

Thae Su Nyein is considered one of the most outstanding contestants in Southeast Asia at this year's contest. Before the final round, many beauty sites predicted that she could go further, even being a strong candidate for the Miss title.

With a height of 1.75m, a beautiful doll-like appearance, and the ability to communicate fluently in English, the 17-year-old beauty has achieved many impressive achievements such as: Top 3 Miss Popular Vote, Top 2 Countr"s Power of the Year and many other secondary awards in the final night.

This is not the first time Miss Grand International has been embroiled in controversy. Ranked among the six largest international beauty pageants today, the contest often causes controversy over its organization and final results.
