PHUKET: Phuket is slated to hold the first ‘Miss Supranational Phuket 2017’ contest next month. All profits from the event will be donated to Vachira Phuket Hospital. 

The concept of the pageant is ‘Absolutely Phuket’ and organizers aim to find the “most beautiful woman who truly represents the island”. 

“This is the first time that this event has been organized in Phuket. We also plan to hold national-level competitions here,” said contest director Preeyalak Eimsamran. 

“This is not your typical ‘modeling’ contest. We are trying to find women who showcase the real essence of Phuket and can represent it on a national or international stage,” she added. 

The top three winners get prize money of 100,000, 50,000 and 20,000 baht respectively.
