Miss Macau crown 2008 goes to Florence Loi

The resurrected Miss Macau pageant crowned its first winner in 11 years last Sunday. As a 2007 IFT (Institute For Tourism Studies) graduate, Florence Loi, 23, should be well equipped to market Macau to the world as her new beauty queen!

As part of their presentation to convince judges of their eligibility to be the face of Macau, the contestants had to wax lyrical about Macau’s signature snacks, including the Portuguese Egg Tart and Pork Chop Bun.

The second runner up Ana Kuan Barroso, a Macanese of mixed Portuguese and Chinese heritage, was a crowd favourite, so it wasn’t surprising that the Macau Polytechnic Institute student bagged 2 subsidiary awards.

They are:

Most Stylish and Glamorous Hair Award
Most Popular Miss Macau

Coming third in the pageant was Cherry Ng

Hong Kong celebrities and current pageant winners including Miss Hong Kong and Mr Hong Kong will be present at the event.

Interestingly enough, the last winner, Agnes Lo aka Miss Macau 1997 was, until very recently, a colleague of ours here at Macau.com.
