==Venue==
===Vietnam Backed Out===
On June 8, 2009, Mr.Hoang Kieu (RAAS Chairman) and Mrs. Morley publicly agreed on the Nha Trang site but four months later, it was found that Hoang Kieu appeared in Thoi Son Ecological Tourism to oversee constructions of facilities and many ad banners was up. According to a manager of the Tien Giang Tourism JS Company, RAAS bought 31 hectares there in total to build a tourism site for Miss World 2010 leading to publicly debating about some heritages and national ecological preserves devastated, and about highly raising the land price, people living there had to move out.<ref>[http://tintuconline.vietnamnet.vn/vn/print/vanhoa/413900/index.html VietnamNet - "Hoa hậu" và những dự án đất] {{vi icon}}</ref><ref>[http://worldshowbiz.info/beauty-contest/miss-world-pageant/disagreement-on-the-location-to-host-miss-world-2010-pageant/ Disagreement on the location to host Miss World 2010 Pageant]</ref>

On January 28, 2010, RAAS faxed to Khanh Hoa People’s Committee office to announce that they were no longer organizing without no official explanation. Khanh Hoa Province showed the interest to host continually and found new sponsors. However, in case of another province assigned to host, RAAS will return as the main sponsor.<ref>[http://vnexpress.net/GL/Van-hoa/2010/01/3BA1853B/ VnExpress - RAAS đơn phương rút khỏi Miss World 2010].

RASS also confirmed that Miss World would be back to [[Mỹ Tho]], [[Tien Giang Province]] later in 2011 or 2012.<ref name="beg off"/>

On February 5, 2010, it was announced that [[Khanh Hoa]] withdrew as host of Miss World 2010 due to RAAS’s inconsistent attitudes in organizing the pageant, the province’s leaders had assigned its enterprises to approach and campaign for hosting the [[Miss Earth 2010]] and the second Miss World Vietnam pageants in Nha Trang instead of the Miss World contest.<ref>[http://www.saigon-gpdaily.com.vn/Culture_Art/2010/2/79124/ Khanh Hoa withdraws as host of Miss World 2010]</ref>

Finally on April 2, 2010 Deputy Prime Minister [[Nguyen Thien Nhan]] has approved a proposal by the host province Khanh Hoa to back out of hosting the Miss World 2010 contest.<ref>[http://www.thanhniennews.com/2010/Pages/Vietnam-won%E2%80%99t-hold-Miss-World-2010.aspx Vietnam won’t hold Miss World 2010: Deputy PM]</ref>
