I personally have never seen the value of beauty contests.So few are able to participate and I don't understand the message!

In thailand ,they start the kids out very very young,dressing them up with makeup and fancy hairdos.They develop a large group of exhibitional behavior that makes me think of future go go dancers!

I agree, BKKSTAN.

And, I could be wrong, but this particular beauty pageant looks more like a recruiting gimmick to get isan girls to work at their Pattaya club.

The Miss Nongkhai was not held in 2007 and there are no plans for it in 2008 either

If any of you saw the contestants from the last one,you might be inclined to call it what I do,''The Miss Ugly of Nongkhai''!Of course,I only saw a picture and even I look ugly in pictures

Why no contest this year or next year ?

The falang that initiated and sponsored it has sold out and moved on to Pattaya!

Rrrr.I.C.

because i am concentrating on updating the rooms and building the business up and Miss NK would be too big a distraction at present

Hope you rethink this. The former owner, now in Patttaya, that sponsered the Miss Nongkai event may be open to providing you valuable assisance. As I remember the event filled the rooms and there was a great amount of publicity. Large quantities of food and beer was consumed I imagine.

This event by itself would be a valuable marketing tool should you decide to sell some time later. It would also be a significant addition to your internet site.

Good luck.

I believe the winner was the old owners stepdaughter,the only ''looker'' in the group!

well if she was the only 'looker' in the group surely a worthy winner, stepdaughter or not.


i can't remember what they all looked like as sadly some of the posts with the pictures of the 2006 entrants where deleted by someone sometime time way back if anyone was looking for them on this thread.
