THE search for the next Miss Cosmo­World Malaysia is on.

Pageant founder Carrie Lee is calling on aspiring contestants to sign up for an audition on July 19 at Confetti KL, an event space in Seri Kemban­gan, Selangor.

The former beauty queen, who holds the Miss Malaysia Tourism 2003 and Miss Chinese Cosmos 2004 titles, said by participating women will be able to discover their inner strength and unlock their full potential.

“Women have the power to transform, be independent, multitask and persevere through life’s challenges,” she said at a press conference at Confetti KL.

Also present was the pageant’s honorary advisor Datuk Seri Dr Chong Chin Fung.

Successful candidates will compete at the Miss CosmoWorld Malay­sia grand finals on Oct 27 at the JW Marriott Hotel Kuala Lumpur.

The event also saw the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the organiser and sponsors, as well as a gathering of past pageant winners.

Pageant chairman Joyce Chao, who was Miss CosmoWorld Malaysia 2021 first runner-up, said the competition has been instrumental in helping her become a confident and well-rounded woman.

“Before joining the pageant, I didn’t know how to walk in heels or do a proper catwalk.

“But the journey pushed me beyond my limits, giving me strength and opened doors to new possibilities,” she said.

Reflecting on her transformation, Chao said the pageant taught her an important life lesson – that perfection is not a prerequisite.

“What truly matters is having the courage to take that first step and allowing yourself to grow through the experience,” she said.
