A former beauty queen herself who won Miss Malaysia Universe 1990 and Mrs. Malaysia World 2004, Dato’ Anna Lim personally selected the finalists, lending her experience and knowledge on what it takes to be a successful beauty queen.

She said the finalists were chosen based on their ability to carry themselves confidently and their personalities as well as how well they represented the pageant theme of Beauty with a Purpose.

“Winning the pageant is not going to be an easy task for the finalists as each and everyone of them are worthy opponents in their own right.
