Miss Tourism Queen International 2008
May 5, 2008 – 11:27 pm
This post maybe too late to talk about, but what makes me astonished is one of the trivia things on it that maybe slipped away from many people’s attention. As a pure Indonesian, I interested on an eye-catching subject that obviously tickling my mind.
In the Top 20 semifinalists list, the contestant’s rank was cited complete with information of their original country. The crown of Miss Tourism Queen International 2008 went to Silvia Cornejo from Peru (and the Peruvian flag picture appeared beside her name), the first runner up was Tong He from China (with the Chinese flag beside her). The second runner up was Sahar Biniaz from Canada (along with Canadian flag), etc…etc…to the special award as Miss Charm , there was Ida Ayu Pradnya Laksmi Devi from Bali (and the Indonesian flag red and white appeared beside her name, but they did not mention her from Indonesia).
Do you notice the odd? Each contestant was called with her country, but what about Ida Ayu Pradnya Laksmi Devi from Bali (and the Indonesian flag red and white appeared beside her name). Is there a new country named Bali that has the same flag to Indonesian flag? Why did they cite Ida Ayu Pradnya Laksmi Devi from Bali rather than Ida Ayu Pradnya Laksmi Devi from Indonesia? Didn’t the committee of this contest know that Bali is one of the provinces of Republic of Indonesia?
Cappeek deeeeeeeehh………
