Contestants can register from April 25 to May 20. The short-list and semi-final rounds in Vietnam will take place from May 20 to June 5 in five provinces and cities: Tuyen Quang, Ha Noi, Hue, HCM City and Can Tho.

The overseas short-list and semi-final rounds will be held in four countries: the US for contestants from America, the UK for those in Europe, Russia for girls from the Commonwealth of Independent States and South Korea for girls from Asia.

The finals will run from August 10 to 21 at Vinpearl Land Resort in Nha Trang, with 40 competitors. The winner will get the highest prize for a pageant in Vietnam so far – 500 million dong ($26,500).

Meanwhile, the Miss Vietnam 2010 pageant will take place in Ha Long City from June 15 to August 15, leading to worries about the “scarcity” of competitors and lack of public interest. Le Xuan Than, Vice-Chair of Khanh Hoa province and a member of the organizing board, is not concerned because Miss Vietnam Global is an international event, so contestants will arrive from many countries.

The board also introduced clear and strict regulations about the age and qualifications of contestants to avoid any scandals that may arise after the competition.

Besides honoring the beauty of Vietnamese women, this pageant is a special event to celebrate the millennial anniversary of Hanoi. The interview round will focus on questions about Thang Long – Hanoi.

After the finals in August, Khanh Hoa will organize events to celebrate Hanoi’s great anniversary with the winners of Miss Vietnam Global 2010.
