Confident because you feel mature
Miss Universe Ngoc Chau.
Miss Universe Vietnam's term is about to end, how does Ngoc Chau feel now?
I feel like the past year has passed by in the blink of an eye. Every person, every story, every memory, every trip... I met and experienced are all unforgettable to me.
I am grateful for the valuable journey at Miss Universe Vietnam 2022, which gave me the opportunity to explore more, commit more, develop and find my own value.
I am no longer afraid of comments like "too safe, hard to break through". I am now mature enough to understand my own goals, confident enough to face difficulties and ready to accept challenges to break through myself.
From there, I believe that the values I create can bring positive values to the community and society.

If you were asked the same behavioral question from last year: "Who will you be in 5 years?", how would you answer?
I will still answer as before: "In the next 5 years, Ngoc Chau will still be Ngoc Chau, continuing the journey of sharing with a warm heart and a pair of hands ready to act to pursue her own dream of bringing full conditions of health, education, and affection to children".
I believe that each beauty queen has her own mission for her journey. Growing up in a rural border area with many difficulties and lack of conditions for children to develop comprehensively, I understand and sympathize with all those shortages.
So I decided to do it and join the Children's Step Up Fund. The fund and I set big fundraising goals to help more children with congenital disabilities.
No regrets about past decisions

How do you know which door to walk through? For example, trading your studies for the duties of a beauty queen?
When I shared my story, I received mixed reactions, both words of encouragement and consolation as well as negative comments. It is true that there are times and crossroads when you are forced to make decisions. But those are decisions made in adulthood, and I do not regret it.
If given the choice again, would Ngoc Chau change her decision?
I won't change. But I understand, with this decision, the person who worries the most is my mother. She often asks: "What will you do in the future?".
That is why I will not give up. In the near future, I will go back to school, pursue the field of media and become a professional producer. At this time, when I decide to go back to school, after I have stabilized my job, I will do my best to make my mother feel secure.
I passed the English test and received a 50% scholarship from the University of Economics and Finance. I hope I will achieve the academic results I set out initially.
What do you think about the untrue rumors about your studies being brought up for discussion?
I believe everyone wants the best for themselves, but not everyone can share their personal opinions in a way that is easy for others to hear and accept.
I also understand that once you become a public figure and take on an influential position like Miss Universe Vietnam, noise is inevitable.
I have prepared myself mentally for negative comments about me. If the audience gives constructive and loving comments, I will select and change to improve myself.
I myself can't force others to like me or stop them from making negative comments.
But can you always "avoid" malicious comments?
I feel a little sad if my relatives are accidentally affected. Since becoming a beauty queen, I am more aware of protecting my image. I consider carefully what I do and what I say on social networks.
Sometimes things happen that you can't control. If you keep thinking about it, it will drain your energy.
What has happened has happened, I choose to contribute to the public, learn from the experience and try to change so that this mistake will not be repeated. However, looking back, this life has given me more than one title.
Luckily, during important stages or when I was stuck, I had the support of the company and the team, who helped me plan strategies. Above all, I also had my mother support and be by my side throughout my journey of growing up.
Try and make an effort every day

Seeing her daughter being attacked, has her mother ever advised her to get married and find a stable job, so that she would be less vulnerable than when she was a celebrity?
My mother supported all my decisions and choices. Only when I competed in Vietnam's Next Top Model, I was still too new to this industry.
My mother is just a simple farmer, afraid that I would fall into temptation, so at that time she did not accept. But now, I think it is enough to reassure her that her daughter can develop in the entertainment industry.
I love and consider my mother as my idol. Whenever I am stuck and don't know what to do, I will call her.
Indeed, over the past year, there have been times when I've felt a bit pressured, but "pressure makes diamonds".
Responsibility motivates me to constantly try and make efforts to achieve results. Fatigue or hardship will only be challenges for me to overcome on the long journey.
Can this be considered advice for the new Miss Universe Vietnam 2023?
Maybe! I hope the girl chosen for this position will always be brave enough to prepare for a new journey.
Always be yourself, the more inner strength you have, the more effort and practice you have. Any success must overcome difficulties and challenges.
Thanks!
