30 contestants from ten ASEAN member countries will meet in June 10 to join in a journey to explore Phu Yen as well as take part in catwalk and performance training classes led by Fashion TV catwalk director Vo Hoang Yen.

Yen was the winner of the Vietnam Supermodel contest in 2008. She was the second in Miss Universe Vietnam 2008 and represented Vietnam in Miss Universe 2009.

“The contestants’ catwalk skills may not be even because they come from countries with different levels of development in fashion and performance, and the frequency of holding beauty pageants, not to mention religion,” said Yen. “But the crew and I are ready to train each of them so that they can shine and compete fairly on stage in the final night of the competition on July 1, 2017.”

The programmes accompanying the contest are going to see the participation of experts and celebrities from countries in the ASEAN. Vietnamese artists that are going to be present include music director-composer Huy Tuan, executive director Hoang Cong Cuong, director of contestant admission supermodel Ha Anh, director of the catwalk supermodel Hoang Yen, contestant management consultant Miss Southeast Asia Phan Hoang Thu, MC Vu Manh Cuong, and more.

Miss ASEAN Friendship 2017 aims to honour the beauty of Southeast Asian women and is going to be a platform for cultural exchange, with the purpose of increasing cooperation among countries in the bloc, promote trade, tourism, and introduce the sceneries of Phu Yen, Vietnam, and other ASEAN destinations.

Eligible applicants can contact the contestant selection board through Facebook, email, the event’s website or the hotline. The contestant selection board will work with the applicants and their representatives to verify their information and ensure their applications are complete before forwarding them to the organising board, then carry out all necessary procedures so that they can arrive at Noi Bai or Tan Son Nhat International Airport on June 10, 2017.

Miss ASEAN Friendship 2017 has been promoted in Vietnam and other countries in the ASEAN. At the moment, the competition is open for applications. The choosing of contestants will be finished on May 25, 2017.
