Nawat 'cold-shouldered' Thuy Tien, 'manipulated' a series of runners-up to do something to make huge profits?

Recently, social networks were abuzz when Praewwanich Ruangthong - 2nd Runner-up Miss Supranational 2022 actively participated in livestream sales sessions after announcing that she would continue to try her hand at the Miss Universe Phuket 2025 season.

This is a beauty pageant in Phuket province, aiming to find a representative to Miss Universe Thailand 2025. According to some sources, Praewwanich Ruangthong is said to have continued to livestream regularly twice a day despite her health problems and a runny nose. The beauty is participating in a sales campaign to reach 1 million Thai baht (about 780 million VND) in a period of 5 days.

Praewwanich Ruangthong's actions made everyone believe that she was trying to do this to please Mr. Nawat, who had just bought Miss Universe Thailand.

Not only Praewwanich Ruangthong, another runner-up also actively livestreamed to sell products before entering Miss Universe Thailand 2025. The person mentioned is Praveenar Singh - 2nd runner-up Miss Universe Thailand 2023. She once livestreamed to sell products worth 10 million Thai baht (about 7 billion VND). Praveenar Singh was also invited by Mr. Nawat to the office to livestream to sell products together.

The fact that many runners-up competed to sell livestream products to please Mr. Nawat, becoming favorable in the re-competition of Miss Universe Thailand, quickly "ignited" controversy across social networking forums. The question being asked is whether this beauty contest was organized to find girls who can positively inspire the community or to "close deals" and increase revenue.

For Mr. Nawat, livestream sales skills are emphasized. He even considers it a criterion for selecting beauty queens. At the Miss Grand International contest founded by Mr. Nawat, the 4B system is repeatedly emphasized: Beauty, Body, Brain and Business.

After being selected by Mr. Nawat to become Miss or Runner-up, the contestants must livestream to sell products. In the Miss Grand Thailand 2022 season, he even required the beauties to achieve enough sales revenue to be able to go on business trips and be considered for the top 10 finalists. This has turned the beauty contest founded by Mr. Nawat into a commercialized one.

Therefore, when Miss Universe Thailand was in the hands of Mr. Nawat, the public became even more concerned that this playground would "copy" the commercialization direction from Miss Grand International. But it is gradually happening because the two runners-up, Praveenar Singh and Praewwanich Ruangthong, were both actively doing similar work before entering Miss Universe Thailand 2025.

At the time Thuy Tien was crowned, she also joined the sales to 'please' Nawat. Up to now, after being caught up in the vegetable candy advertising scanda.l and having her departure from the country suspended for investigation, on social media, Nawat seems to be completely quiet or has any movements showing interest or surprise about Thuy Tien, even though before that, the two had maintained a good relationship.

Miss Grand Thailand was launched in 2013 and is under the management of Mr. Nawat. After nearly 10 years of development, Miss Grand Thailand has become an important beauty pageant in Thailand.

In 2022, the final round of the contest took place in Bangkok (Thailand) in April 2022 with the victory belonging to contestant Engfa Waraha. She then represented Thailand at Miss Grand International 2022 and won the 1st runner-up position.

In addition to running Miss Grand Thailand, Mr. Nawat also runs the Miss Grand International pageant. When founding the pageant, Mr. Nawat emphasized that beauty queens must be people who can convey emotions through their eyes, perfect smiles, and convey a message of peace. However, recently, his statements and decisions seem to be going against the criteria of the pageant.

The Miss Grand International pageant began to lose its popularity with audiences after the Miss Grand International 2022 final in Indonesia in October 2022. After the final night, the number of people who registered to follow the pageant's official fanpage dropped sharply, now only 3.8 million people, meaning a loss of 2.7 million fans after the final night.

Besides the controversy over President Nawat's derogatory remarks about the appearance of Doan Thien An, Vietnam's representative, he also faced a wave of debate about the 5th runner-up of the contest - Yuvna Rinishta (Mauritius) giving up her title and the Filipino beauty - Roberta Angela Tamondong being chosen to replace her.
