First blog entry: Mister International 2009

I am welcoming everyone in my blog. I am a big fan of beauty pageants and this is the main factor that pushed me to start writing down my random thoughts on the world of pageantry.

Since the 4th Mister International is currently undertaking in Taiwan, I take this topic as my first blog entry.

This is the Mister International so don't confused this one with another male pageant that has the same name. The other one is MR. International while this pageant is MISTER International. Did you get the difference?

Though both pageants sound exactly the same, the difference is how the word Mister or Mr is spelled.

Mr. International started in India in 1998 but after 2003, the pageant disappeared mysteriously. All the pageant editions except in 2003 were held in India. In 2003, it was held in London or outside India for the first time. Since then, it is not been held.

Mister International, on the other hand, is based in Singapore. It premiered in 2006 in Singapore City with Lebanon's Wissam Hanna as the first winner.
