Hot News Pageant : Miss Earth 2012 no longer in Vietnam?

Miss Earth 2012 no longer in Vietnam?

What seemed like a done deal might fall apart. Mr. Nguyen Cong Khe (Chairman of Thanh Nien Media Corp, and licensors of Miss Earth in Vietnam), told the Vietnam Express that hosting the Miss Earth 2012 pageant in the country is not official and still under “discussion”.

Mr Khe said that there are still talks with the filipino organizers of Miss Earth, and a permit from the Vietnam Ministry of Culture, Sport and Tourism must be granted.   “With the difficult economic situation that the country is facing, every possible event and its costs must be examined carefully”, he added.

During the last quarter of 2011, vietnamese media reported that a special amphitheatre was being built in the coastal city of Ninh Thuan, which would hold the 2012 Miss Earth and Miss Vietnam pageants.  Vietnam hosted the Miss Earth competition in 2010, and it was reported it would host the contest in even years (2012, 2014, 2016). However the deal seems to have vanished.

The mentioned venue, called now “The Coral Theatre” is being built at a cost of 10 million USD, and expected to be completed in August.  The official opening ceremony to inaugurate the building will take place in October.  According to Khe, the building will launch the city of Phan Rang – Thap Cham as a major entertainment destination.

Shall Vietnam cancel the event, the other possible venues would be Bangkok (Thailand) or Manila (Philippines). Source By Global Beauties

Miss Earth 2012 to be held in Ninh Thuan, Vietnam

Stage for the 2012 Miss Earth competition in Ninh Thuan; completion to take place in 2012

Mister Nguyen Cong Khe, head of the Media Youth Group, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam, and authorities of the province of Ninh Thuan, reunited to sign the contract that gives Ninh Thuan the rights to host the Miss Vietnam 2012 and Miss Earth 2012 pageants.  Media Youth Group will invest in the construction of a special 2000-seat auditorium for the events called the “Stage of Beauty”.

This new open-air, roofed auditorium will feature the latest in technology as well as a magical water fountain, making it one of a kind in Southeast Asia.

The Miss Vietnam 2012 competition is scheduled to take place in August, while the Miss Earth 2012 contest will be held in early December.  Around 90 contestants from all over the globe will tour places of interest in Vietnam during a month before the final event.

The province of Ninh Thuan is located in the South Central coast of Vietnam, with pristine beaches and an active agricultural movement.  Its capital, Phan Rang – Thap Cham City, is located 105km south of Nha Trang (city which hosted the 2010 pageant).

Also, it was learned that Bangkok, Thailand, will host the Miss Earth 2013 competition.  The thai capital was supposed to welcome the 2011 competition but the impending floods caused the event to be cancelled, and to return to its home base of Manila.
