July 3, 2012

LookAtVietnam – The first runner-up of Miss Vietnam 2010 Vu Hoang My will represent Vietnam at the Miss World 2012 pageant in Ordos, China, this August. She has three weeks to prepare for this event.

Portraits and information about the Vietnamese representative has been posted on Globalbeauties.
Hoang My, 24, is a student of multimedia design at RMIT International University in HCM City.
Hoang My received a letter of invitation from the Miss World Organisation on June 27. Elite Vietnam, the only international model agency in Vietnam that is entitled to send contestants to beauty queen competitions, has got an approval from the Performing Arts Agency.

Hoang My is urgently practicing for the competition. She expects to be prominent in the Miss Sport competition. She recently participated in various sports events in Vietnam like marathon, dance sport, etc.
Hoang My represented Vietnam at the Miss Universe 2011 in Brazil, but failed to enter the final round. However, experts said that she is the most outstanding contestant of Vietnam at this moment because she is good at English, experienced at beauty contests and her advantages are appropriate to the Miss World pageant.
Miss World 2012 will start on July 18 and closed on August 18.

They say "

“I can’t say what made me fall in love with Vietnam - that a woman’s voice can drug you; that everything is so intense. The colors, the taste, even the rain. Nothing like the filthy rain in London. They say whatever you’re looking for, you will find here. They say you come to Vietnam and you understand a lot in a few minutes, but the rest has got to be lived. The smell: that’s the first thing that hits you, promising everything in exchange for your soul. And the heat. Your shirt is straightaway a rag. You can hardly remember your name, or what you came to escape from. But at night, there’s a breeze. The river is beautiful. You could be forgiven for thinking there was no war; that the gunshots were fireworks; that only pleasure matters. A pipe of opium, or the touch of a girl who might tell you she loves you. And then, something happens, as you knew it would. And nothing can ever be the same again.”
― Graham Greene, The Quiet American

Tips on Travel to Vietnam

It's always warm in Southeast Asia apart from high mountains, so leave the heavy clothing at home. Cotton and breathable fabrics are always better than synthetics -- although cotton does wrinkle a lot when traveling! December through April is roughly the dry season in that region, although it can still rain a little. December is a good time to go in terms of temperature -- cooler than in the humid summertime. Either way, wearing more clothing (shirt sleeves and long pants) is always more respectful towards the Asian culture, especially when visiting temples and rural areas.
