Former Miss Liberia in the US Georgia State Queen Miss Harriette Thomas represents Liberia in the The Miss International Pageant in Toyko Japan




The 2007 Miss International Beauty Pageant is currently taking place in Tokyo (Japan) from October 2nd to October 15th. 66 beauties from all over the world will try to win the coveted title currently held by Daniela Di Giacomo of Venezuela.



Miss International (officially titled The International Beauty Pageant) is the fourth largest beauty pageant in the world. It was created in Long Beach, California, USA in 1960 after the departure of the Miss Universe pageant to Miami Beach. Hosted in Long Beach until 1967, the pageant moved to Japan from 1968–1970, being hosted each year in the same city as the Japan Expo. For 1971 and 1972, it was held in Long Beach again, but since that time it has been held annually in Japan.
Also called a "Festival of Beauty" and even the "Olympics of Beauty", this pageant is not based on looks alone. Contestants are expected to serve as "Ambassadors of Peace and Beauty", showing tenderness, benevolence, friendship, beauty, intelligence, ability to take action, and, most importantly, a great international sensibility.
The ultimate goal of the Miss International beauty pageant is to promote world peace, goodwill, and understanding.
