The inaugural beauty pageant exclusively designated for petite ladies, the Miss Malaysia Petite Spokesperson 2017 was officially launched at Atria SOFO Suites, Damansara Jaya in Petaling Jaya on 20th April 2017.
The Top 25 Miss Malaysia Petite Spokesperson finalists who are vying for the title of Miss Malaysia Petite Spokesperson 2017 were announced at a packed press conference. They will compete to wear the prestigious crown at the grand finals at Galaxy Banquet Hall @ HGH Convention Centre in Sentul, Kuala Lumpur on 26th May 2017.
“Height is no more a barrier for women to foray the modelling and pageantry worlds. I am pleased and honoured to provide such platform to encourage petite ladies to step out of the enclosed frame of the typical definition of beauty,” said Irene Tan. a former winner of Miss Petite World 2012 and director of I Tiara Production Sdn Bhd which is organising the event.
She said a mere beauty appearance was no longer enough to be a beauty queen. Modernization of global development required multi-skilled talent to keep up the pace of the world.
“The rapid demands of the world now requires a winner not just about physical beauty but also have a heart and a brain. The winner needs to be witty, compassionate, outspoken and patient,” said Tan.
The pageant is opened to ladies between 18 to 29 years old, with a height limitation requirement of not more than 167.5cm (5 feet and 5.94 inches).
