Read that the SL representing contestant Thihari was not allowed to take her designed Costume to Malaysia last week for Miss Grand International. It had weighed 27 Kilos and she had paid for excess baggage too. However, she was asked to leave the main costume at customs. In a context like this, with such people surrounded by extreme insensitivity, unawareness and stupidity, wonder how Sri Lanka is even considered to host any such event.

Not heard of Thihari. Had seen the name of the real contestant. Maybe you are related to the actual contestant, otherwise what do you care for her born beauty. 27kg of costume, surely that's the sign of gone too far! Better encourage school girls to go work as housemaid than try with their looks for beauty pageant, as work as housemaid is more decent with honest work.

Hope that those involved in the previous Mrs world scandal are not involved in this.

What does it matter? Beauty pageant is nothing noble. Measurement on looks, scandal should be world and Lanka hold it up as so wonderful and important! Often in Western country most model by 19 who want be this field are well accustomed intimately with many men.

Last year winner makes most of men drool. They forget everything like addicts to see the woman beauty. Some may then wish to spend more for greater experience. This is common problem in wealthy country too.

Miss Tourism World is a never heard of contest, this must be an event just limited to Sri Lanka, or we can pay some people to come here and participate on protests, (just like we did to the Ukrainian tourists) and other exciting events like looking at the dead bodies washed up ashore.

Most of these contestants end up in some line of prostitution. They have nothing but their born looks to compete with. Unless they marry rich businessman, or foolhardy young youth, are best working for persons like Thilini Priyamali.
