Mrs. Malaysia and Borneo International Global 2017 Grand Final took its place on the 1st of December in Galaxy Banquet Hall, Sentul KL representing sixteen finalists from two age categories Sapphire (24-40) and Ruby (41-60) divided into two age groups. The beauty pageant was held under Women Empowerment Festival which was organized by Life and Pageant coach June Yap, who also has several titles in her pageant career.
The panel of judges had a hard time deciding who would win the Grand Titles after seeing how far they have come with their speaking skills, runways walk and performance art. And after the proper discussion, they announced 4 main winners with the following titles: Mrs. Malaysia International Global 2017- Harine Rathipriya, Mrs. Borneo International Global 2017- Lysabeth Karen, Mrs. Classic Malaysia International Global 2017- Shuganthi, and Mrs. Classic Borneo International Global 2017 - Jennifer Chok Pian Lian.
Harine Rathipriya, Mrs. Malaysia International Global 2017, told us about what she thinks of Beauty Pageants.
“I think pageants should be encouraged. It is not just about being beautiful and standing here in pretty clothes, it’s more than that actually, and when you go for this kind of pageants they are actually making you a better person,” –she said.
Before shining on the stage during the finals Mrs. Malaysia and Borneo International Global contestants had to go through 3 months boot camp program which emphasized on 5 main areas like Personal Transformation, Career, Family, Tourism and Culture, and Charity. Ladies were exposed to a variety of workshops including Positive Mindset, Public Speaking, Make-up, Grooming, Entrepreneurship etc. All of this prepared contestants to become more confident and empowered version of themselves.
The main part of the event that was showcasing the finalists consisted of three rounds. The first one was the demonstration of traditional costumes, with the variety of some really astonishing outfits which impressed the crowd. At the end of their walk contestants gave a short introduction about themselves and told the audience about their motivation to participate in the pageant.
The second round included the catwalk in elegant black dresses and the showcase of the jewelry sponsored by Shinju Pearls. The audience could see how gracefully the ladies tried to present themselves walking on the ramp.
The last round was the runway show of the Evening Wear. “Be Bold for a Change” slogan campaign perfectly fit the event flow. The finalists proudly walked down the runway accompanied by the voice-over telling their powerful life story about the challenges they faced in life and how they coped with it.
