The title winner of Mrs Malaysia Asia Pacific Tourism, beauty queen Mahisri, is now shining as an international judge in the beauty pageant circuit.
Mahisri won the Mrs Asia Pacific Tourism beauty pageant in 2019.
She hopes this new responsibility will inspire young women to have more self-confidence and create more beauty queens in Malaysia.
“A true beauty queen does not only wear her crown with her head but with her heart as well,” said the beauty queen.
She says training and motivating ladies, especially married women, is challenging.
“The pageant is about making yourself ready for the next level in terms of communication, confidence, patience and independence.
However, the IT engineer said that anything is possible if they do it with passion and love.
Mahisri competed with 28 other contestants worldwide at the international beauty pageant at the Grand Ballroom, Forest City, Johor Bahru.
She had also clinched the ‘Queen of Substance’ and ‘Mrs Classic’ subsidiary crowns during the national-level pageant.
The 28-year-old mother of a baby girl said she felt less prepared as the pageant got closer.
“The most vivid memory of me is feeling nervous during the question and answer session, but I managed to answer the judges’ questions spontaneously,” said Mahisri.
She also added that most of the girls were equally impressive and like sisters to me.
“We helped and guided each other throughout this journey.
“No mistakes have been made as all of them are so friendly and helping each other.
“I always wish to be someone and a good role model, and I believe pageant is one of the great platforms.
She also hopes to give back to society through her charitable activities and hopes that she will be able to reach out to more ladies, especially single mothers.
Mahisri is pursuing her Bachelor’s Degree in Human Resource Management at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
