PHNOM PENH: The organiser of Miss Grand Cambodia beauty pageant has been lambasted for allowing scantily clad models walk on stage and reveal too much of their bodies. They faced public criticisms and also an official rebuke from the authorities for allowing a model claiming to represent the Stung Treng province, on the catwalk showing off part of her breast and groin.

 

Another two models displayed playing cards and dice when representing Poipet city in Banteay Meanchey and Bavet city in Svay Rieng provinces. They also had Angkor Wat as the backdrop. According to a report in Khmer Times, this drew the ire of many as it was deemed as inappropriate representations of the rich Cambodian culture. The Aug 24 event is now seeing calls for the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts and the Ministry of Information to take action against the organisers.

 

Stung Treng provincial authorities have also condemned the event and urged action to be taken against the event organisers for tarnishing their image. They said the models in the pageant used the name of Stung Treng province without getting permission from them. In a statement, the provincial administration said such inappropriate dress reflected badly on Cambodian culture, especially the dignity of women.
