Road to Miss Universe Myanmar 2016


Myanmar, once a reclusive nation crippled with US-led sanctions thanks to the former military regime, made a comeback to Miss Universe in 2013 after more than 50 years of absence. It is not an easy return since its neighboring countries are way ahead of establishing themselves as a powerhouse status or successful ones and so Myanmar is really trying to catch up with its neighbors for the achievement in coming years. The Miss Universe Myanmar Org is working hard on that to crown the right girl for the most anticipated pageant in the universe.


This year, in order to give more preparation time for the girl who wins, the national pageant has now started 1 year before competing abroad and hence she will be one of the earliest contestants for the next edition of Miss Universe. MUMO successfully holds 19 city pageants across the country under its directorship which exceeds that of last year. Moreover the final audition took place in the city of Yangon last month choosing 7 more girls thus making 26 girls are vying for the coveted crown. The Miss Universe Myanmar 2017 finals is set to be in October 6. The rightful winner will represent Myanmar in Miss Universe 2016 in Manila while the 1st runner-up will compete in Miss Grand International 2017.
