webfact Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Miss Thailand World contestants in Phuket for 'training' Four contestants pose for a group photo at the Cape Panwa Hotel yesterday. PHUKET: -- Thirty Miss Thailand World 2010 contestants are at the Cape Panwa Hotel Phuket as part of a four-day “training camp” to prepare for the pageant, which will be televised live from Bangkok on the night of August 14. Apart from learning everything they will need to know to succeed in the beauty competition, the contestants will also do some charity painting work at the Baan Laem Sai School. The beauties arrived on the island yesterday for a three-night stay. This year’s pageant promises to serve up some bombshells, as chief organizer Nawat Itsornkraisil has this year given a blanket green light for plastic surgery. "In previous years," he says, "the contestants were always dubious about it and kept asking, 'Can I do this? Is this much okay?' So we've now made it clear with a blanket decision: Plastic surgery is okay for this competition." It's two birds downed with one stone for the organizers – they no longer have to scrutinize applicants to make sure “they're real”, and they're absolved from criticism in case the girls aren't. Purists will still object, but these days many of the world's beauty queens – including those from Venezuela and India – have had tummy tucks, butt lifts and boob jobs, or at least a little facial rearrangement. In fact, the only thing the surgeons are barred from adjusting on Miss Thailand World contestants is gender, so ladyboys (transsexuals) are still not eligible to compete. Meanwhile, as is said every year in such pageants worldwide, the organizers claim they are putting more emphasis on the contestants' skills and talents. "We'd love someone who can sing different styles and speak 10 languages," Mr Nawat says, only half-joking. Miss Thailand World 2009 Pongchanok "View" Kunklub fit the bill with her taekwondo moves, but this year we can expect a multilingual, singing, dancing, football-playing, Nobel-winning, maternal-but-adventurous Beyond Perfect Ten. – Nation/Gazette News Pool -- Phuket Gazette 2010-07-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filingaccount Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 So Thailand is represented by 3 mixed race girls and a kratoey? I guess that makes for at least 1 full Thai from the 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pib Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 The one in the "center" in a group of four...how is that managed? The one on the far right looks too man-ish for me...better check his (I mean her) medical paperwork....in fact, check the gender paperwork of the one on the far left also.
