Background

History

Malailak Phachan was elected Miss Grand Laos 2019 at the Miss World Laos 2019 pageant held in Vientiane.

Prior to 2017, the Laos beauty pageant was not well known on the international stage, and only one national contest, Miss Laos was held annually, however, the winners of which did not participate in any international platforms.[9] With an intention to promote the Laos pageant industry to the international level, the president of Miss Grand International, Nawat Itsaragrisil together with Miss Laos Chairman "Hongkham Souvannavong" cooperatively ran the first edition of Miss Grand Laos in 2017 at ITECC Shopping Mall in Vientiane, to select a country representative for Miss Grand International 2017,[1][2] in which, a 19-year-old girl from the capital city, Chinnaly Nolasing was named the winner.[10] In addition to Miss Grand Laos, Miss Laos Company also holds the license of Miss Universe Laos and Miss International Laos.[11]

Later in 2019, Miss Laos company relinquished the Miss Grand franchise to "Saikeo Sidavong", the organizer of Miss World Laos.[4] Under Sidavong management, his first affiliated Miss Grand Laos was determined through Miss World Laos 2019 contest,[12][13] however, such an elected titleholder did not participate at the international stage Miss Grand International 2019 in Venezuela due to VISA issues.[14][15][16] The following country representatives, Phatthana Khidaphone in 2020 and Daomixay Phachansitthy in 2021, were appointed to the position without organizing the Miss Grand national pageant as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[17][18]

Since its inception, the Miss Grand Laos has been arranged under the rigorous control of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party's established governor, the Lao People's Revolutionary Youth Union (Lao:ສູນກາງຊາວໜຸ່ມປະຊາຊົນປະຕິວັດລາວ), which is dedicated to focusing on the fields of information, media, entertainment, art, and music as well as the domestic pageant industry.[9]
