Miss World 2010, the 60th Miss World pageant was held on October 30, 2010,[1][5] in Sanya, People's Republic of China;[1][6] after Vietnam backed out of the hosting contract.[7] Kaiane Aldorino of Gibraltar crowned her successor Alexandria Mills from United States as Miss World 2010.

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 were 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.[8][9]

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.[10][11] On Feb 03, after being assigned to host, Khanh Hoa begged off immediately and offered its backing to Tien Giang province or anywhere else because of hosting Miss Earth and the second Miss World Vietnam.[12][13][14] RASS also confirmed that Miss World would be back to Mỹ Tho, Tien Giang Province later in 2011 or 2012.[12]

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.[15]

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.[16]

Although Miss World 2010 will be held in China, Mr. Hoang Kieu(RAAS) will be in charge of the whole finance of Miss World 2010 in China.[17]
