HD Video Interviews from Miss International
Queen 2022 in Pattaya, Thailand
(05 July 2022, 13:25 +07)
Miss International Queen
(มิสอินเตอร์เนชั่นแนลควีน) is the largest and most
well known international transgender beauty pageant in the world.
The event, which takes place annually, attracts contestants from
all over the world, some of whom even travel with friends,
assistants and family for three days on costly
journeys from different countries in South America to take part.
Because of COVID19 regulations and travel
restrictions, Miss International Queen did not take place in 2021
which makes the event this year, the 16th in MIQ's history, even more important as it
signifies the reopening of borders and hopefully of life as we all
used to know it.
Below you will find different video interviews -
available in HD video and podcast formats - with contestants, the
winner of Miss International Queen 2020 and the MD of Tiffany's
Show Pattaya, Alisa Phanthusak, whose vision it was to create the
pageant and develop it into one of the most important annual
showcases of transgender beauty and equality in the world.
You will learn from the interviews why people
travel so far to take part, how and when they first learned of
Miss International Queen, what it would mean to them to win,
what has led them on this journey in the first place, where they
plan to travel to in Thailand after the Grand Finals, and why so many
transgender women choose Thailand for their gender reassignment
surgery, commonly known as SRS.
You will also discover what it means to win Miss
International Queen and how it can change your life, as well as
more on the business side of the event and how MIQ is expanding
with franchises around the world and embracing technology to make
it even more successful than it already is.

I do not envy the very difficult decisions that the judges of Miss International Queen 2022 are going to have to make in the Grand Finals on Saturday, 25 June.

Extremely well spoken, highly educated and with a very obvious and determined passion to achieve her goals, no matter the challenges she will face along the way. Oh, and as if that were not enough already, she's gorgeous too
