THAILAND WILL PLAY HOST to the Miss Tourism World pageant, marking the first time that the World Final has been held not only in Thailand but in Asia as well.

The final round of the pageant, in which the winner will be announced, will take place at the Siam Niramit in Bangkok on Dec. 15.

Thailand was selected as this year’s host country in July 2012 because of its unique status and strong reputation as a top tourist destination.

The final round of the Miss Tourism World pageant will be broadcast worldwide. In addition to being crowned Miss Tourism World, the winner will receive one million baht, a trophy and many other prizes. The first and second runner-ups will receive USD $16,000 and $9,750 respectively, plus a trophy and other prizes.
