Miss Grand 2024: Myanmar officially seeks Nawat to return 2nd runner-up tiara, breaks up and leaves

The drama between Miss Grand International 2024 2nd Runner-up - Thae Sue Nyein from Myanmar and the president Mr. Nawat and the international organization is getting more and more tense, when recently the 17-year-old beauty announced to contact the Organizing Committee to return the crown.

One day after the Miss Grand International 2024 final, the controversy between beauty Thae Su Nyein, the national director of Miss Grand Myanmar and Mr. Nawat continued to escalate. Both sides have spoken out about the incident. Thae Su Nyein and the national director of Miss Grand Myanmar want to return the crown and the title of second runner-up. Meanwhile, Mr. Nawat continued to livestream to accuse the beauty's team.

On October 26, the top 10 of Miss Grand International 2024 had their first meeting with the Thai media. However, the second runner-up - beauty Thae Su Nyein did not appear. On their personal pages, the beauty queen and the runners-up all updated their new titles, but Thae Su Nyein did not. She also did not update her images in the final round of Miss Grand International 2024.

According to Kapook.com, Htoo Ant Lwin - National Director of Miss Grand Myanmar - announced to return the second runner-up crown to Thae Su Nyein. Htoo Ant Lwin said that the contest results were unfair and said that he would not continue to cooperate with Miss Grand International in the coming years.

"I have decided to return the crown of Miss Grand International. Because what I did and what I received in return was unfair. Next year I will not be able to continue as the national director of Miss Grand International," Htoo Ant Lwin shared with Myanmar Celebrity.

Previously, on livestream, Htoo Ant Lwin expressed his anger when the Myanmar beauty was voted highest in the Best National Costume and Country's Power of the Year awards but did not win.

In the Miss Popular Vote category, Soe Min Tun said that Mr. Nawat told him that if he offered $25,000, he would win, because Indonesia had offered this amount. Soe Min Tun borrowed mone.y from friends to get this amount, but in the en.d, Indonesia won.

After Htoo Ant Lwin's accusations, Mr. Nawat spoke up about the incident during a media exchange with the top 10 on the morning of October 26. "Do they think the crown can be bought so easily? I will wait for Myanmar to return the crown or for you to bring it on the plane. As soon as he gives up the copyright, I will find a new unit to buy the copyright of Miss Grand Myanmar," said Mr. Nawat.

On the evening of October 26, Mr. Nawat continued to livestream to share about the noisy incident. Responding to the offer of $25,000 to win the Miss Popular Vote awar.d, Mr. Nawat said that this was a large amount of mone.y, but he would not sell the awar.d for this mone.y.

Mr. Nawat said the results of the Miss Popular Vote contest were clearly announced, with the Indonesian beauty coming in first, the Vietnamese representative coming in second, and the Myanmar beauty only coming in third. The contest chairman was puzzled because the Myanmar side blamed him for cheatin.g when the voting results were clear.

Mr. Nawat said that Ms. Teresa - Vice President of the contest - had long disliked the Myanmar Country Director, but he still tried to convince the two sides to continue working. But after this incident, he realized that he was wrong. Mr. Nawat also revealed that Myanmar still owed royalties. The president said that the Myanmar Country Director often flaunted luxury goods, but all of the mone.y was donated.

While the incident between Myanmar and Mr. Nawat is tense, Miss Grand Myanmar 2023 (1st Runner-up Miss Grand International 2023) Ni Ni Lin Eain suddenly made some notable shares on her personal page. She wrote: "It's been a whole year of enduring everything that happened. I've been patient with the expectation that everything will be peaceful when the hustle and bustle ends. I've been mentally and physically exhausted since I was crowned. I'm Nini Lin Eain. I'm ready to resolve the matter and provide evidence."
