I am deeply sorry for the people who have lost their lives on the streets. Every citizen of the world wants prosperity in their country and a peaceful environment. In doing so, the leaders involved should not use their power and selfishness to uprise. I know some people - young women and children - risked their lives. If this situation happened somewhere, people from around the world will try to find a solution and help them.
Today, in my country Myanmar, while I'm standing on this stage, there are so many people died, more than a hundred people died today. I am deeply sorry for all the people who have lost their lives. The people from Myanmar, are working on the streets for democracy. I'm also another one who's working for democracy in the state right now. Thank you so much to the MGI Organization to give me such a great opportunity, to speak out my words, through this platform internationally. I want to say from here that, please save Myanmar! We need your urgent international help right now. Let's pray for a better world there's individual responsibility for the new generations. Make the world be at peace with Myanmar!

Controversy

Previously, the pageant was scheduled to be held in Venezuela on 25 October 2020, however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the organization decided to postpone the event to 2021 and move the venue to Bangkok, Thailand. [52] [125] After arriving in Thailand, each contestant had to quarantine in the country for two weeks before taking part in the pageant, [52] [126] following Thailand's public health measures aiming to prevent and control the pandemic. [1] The further examination found two contestants had tested positive for COVID-19 during the quarantine period. Both were subsequently treated in the hospital until testing negative and were permitted to participate in the remaining activities of the pageant. [6] [10] [51] [54]

The grand final of the pageant was hosted by Matthew Deane, [7] and featured 63 contestants. [2] [74] [58] In addition to crowning the winner, the representative of Myanmar, Han Lay, also took the stage during the final telecast to make a declaration against alleged atrocities committed by Myanmar's military in her home country and pleaded for urgent international aid amid the ongoing bloodshed. [74] [75] [76] [77] Her statement caused the Myanmar military government to issue an arrest warrant against her, [79] [80] leading her to apply for refugee asylum in Thailand with the support of the pageant organizer, [3] [79] [80] and she eventually immigrated to Canada for political asylum in late 2021.
