The visit to Pattaya was part of the second-year pageant’s effort to make merit and perform community service by painting the walls of Nongprue School and donating textbooks, notebooks and other items.

Launched in 2016 by the Panama-based World Beauty Association, the Mister Supranational pageant seeks to discover new talent for the modeling and television industries and produce “instant celebrities”, according to its website.

Thirty-six countries, including Thailand, participated in the first pageant which crowned Diego Garcy of Mexico the winner. This year’s pageant will be held in Poland in December.
