Aussie Miss Thailand

[Old Croc]

Aussie Miss Thailand

September 13, 2005

AN Australian girl who believed she didn't have the looks to make it as a Sydney model has been crowned Miss Thailand.

Angela McKay, 20, grew up with her Thai mother and Australian father in Margaret River, WA.

She won a modelling competition at 16 – as Girlfriend magazine's "face of 2000" – but when she moved to Sydney found the market "a bit difficult", her aunt Jill McKay said, so she headed overseas two years ago – landing work with a modelling agency in Bangkok.

Ms McKay said Angela was "overwhelmed" by her title and told her over the phone: "I really didn't think I was going to win . . . it hasn't sunk in."

Angela's mother Kung and father Bob have flown to Bangkok to celebrate.

Angela, who Ms McKay said was taking a "crash course" in Thai, will now contests the Miss World title in China in December.

Ms McKay said her niece had been reluctant to enter the competition, wanting to return to Sydney to begin a university degree.

"Her life has completely changed," she said.

Miss Thailand can't speak Thai....

same the swedish one a couple of years ago, hubby said her thai was terrible, no one could understand her. Again, it's the half thai, half farang looks that get all the attention. no wonder a lot of thai women have complexes when eurasian features & pale skin reign!

Yes, Porntip, from California, couldn't speak nary a word of Thai when she was crowned back in 1988. But that was not quite as notorious as the winner a year or two later whose image had adorned the advertising of her previous place of employment, a massage/karaoke establishment in Chiang Mai.

I didn't see anything like that down sukhumvit at 3am last time I was there, most I got was a molestation from a ladyboy.

Perhaps I should have had a few more drinks.

Can't believe I'm coming to the defense of Nam Kao.... (I must be losing it... ), BUT

I do tend to agree that the original photo of her in her regalia is, indeed, not all that flattering...

BUT... stripping her (figuratively, of course ) of all that regalia does reveal her best and true assets....

Reminds me of the old television show: Who's Line Is It Anyway...

Will the REAL Miss Thailand please stand up:

Aschara McCline

[Head Snake]

I tried to view the original photo as Nam Kao would. The only blemish I see is a crooked smile. Is this Stallone's love child?? Can Bambina research the pics of ma and pa and post em?

All in all, I still think she is beatiful even if she slobbered out the side of her mouth while I kissed her. NOTE: I'd have to be standing on a chair to kiss her.

man, oh man. she is FINE; no two ways about it.

yes, pui (pornthip) was another non-thai-speaking-and-"look kreung" miss thailand who also became miss universe after that. that was a HUGE deal back when i was living in bkk in 88-89. she was the first as far as i know...

no, there are definitely NOT girls that hot selling it on sukhumvit, at any time of day or night. no, no, no!

and yes! there are DEFINITELY girls that hot and hotter at any number of college campuses all over LOS!

my 2-cents-worth...

[sriracha john]

Just curious as to which one is the real winner (and if they are the same person, then which is the correct name AND age.

Perhaps some Thai readers, can tell us from the official Miss Thailand website's announcement:
