As many as 40 contestants will make it to the final round, each entrusted with a charity project. They will present the projects to the judges before directly implementing these.
The entire process will be filmed and broadcast on various TV channels so that the public, too, can judge the contestants, together with the official judging board.
According to the organisers, this year’s contest regulations remain the same as during previous editions. Yet, besides other traditional awards, a new award, Humanity Beauty, will be given to the contestant who comes up with the best charity project.
This year’s winners will take home even bigger cash prizes.
Miss Viet Nam will walk away with VND500 million (US$2,270); first runner-up, VND300 million while the second runner-up will bag VND200 million.
After 14 editions, the contest has emerged as one of the most prestigious national beauty contests that celebrates Vietnamese women’s beauty, appearance, spirit, lifestyle and talent.
