However, this year is also the last chance because I am 28 years old. Therefore, I came here with the mindset of being ready to do everything I can, most of all to be able to continue my journey for my community projects. I hope that Miss Grand Vietnam 2024 will give me more confidence, open up many opportunities to work, and contribute more to society.”

“As a girl born into a violent environment, which greatly affected my psychology when I grew up, I found common ground between my personal story and the ideals of the Miss Grand Vietnam contest. When I was able to overcome the pain, I thought I had experience, compassion, I wanted to have a voice, to act against violence even more. I believe that when I have enough faith and a warm enough heart, the light will shine for me to find the way,” Nam Anh said about the reason for participating in Miss Grand Vietnam 2024.
Returning to the beauty pageant, the beauty from Tien Giang has strong faith in the hope of trying her best to improve herself. While she still has the chance, she will strive to give the audience more positive perspectives about her.

Talking about the reason for participating in Miss Grand Vietnam 2024, Huong Tra said: “School violence is a nightmare for many students, including me. With a quiet and reserved nature, I was bullied many times in my final years of high school. However, I learned from my family to be patient, to regulate my emotions, and to have peace of mind so as not to face violence with violence.
I know how to use powerful words to influence. If we always use violence and hurtful words to respond to each other every time we are attacked or insulted, the earth will not have a definition of peace and war will last. This is also the humanitarian ideal of Miss Grand Vietnam, that is the reason I want to participate in this year’s contest.”
