Vientiane, Aug 26 – In a historic moment, Laos crowns its first-ever Miss Universe Laos. Her name is Souphaphone “Nui” Somvichit.

During a glamor-filled evening at the National Convention Center (NCC) in the nation’s capital, TVLAO hosted the country’s first Miss Universe Laos competition that resulted in Laos’ first-ever representative to be sent to compete in the international stage.

Standing 1.78m, the twenty-year-old Business Administration Comcenter College student (MUL3) showed the country that she was now ready to compete in the big leagues.
