A Kasetsart University student has been named the
public-relations ambassador for the Air Sea Land Games which run
throughout this month in Pattaya and Sriracha.
Supaporn Netwong, 20, won the April 23 final round of
the beauty pageant over 12 other competitors at Central Festival Pattaya
Beach. She took home a trophy, tiara and 30,000 baht cash.
A judges panel made up of city council and Education
Office officials and Miss Teen Southeast Asia 2012 Chunita
Wongwiboonrath chose Supaporn, sponsored by the Pattaya Club, from the
13 contestants to promote the May 1-31 games.
Sponsored by the Royal Aeronautic Sports Association
of Thailand, the games this year will expand to the National Indoor
Sports Arena in Jomtien Beach as well as the usual venue at the Nongkor
Reservoir stadium in Sriracha.
The games are intended to give eastern residents a
healthy diversion and prepare athletes for the upcoming National Sports
Games. Among the events are skydiving from 6,000 feet by Royal Thai Navy
paratroopers and aircraft enthusiasts, a miniature airplane
demonstration, jet ski races, motocross competitions and other air
sports.
Among the 20 land-based sports offered will be
off-road racing, motocross, horseback riding, polo, and beach football.
On the sea, windsurfing and sailing will be featured.
