Why in 1973, they did not replaced the dethroned winner after 104 days, Ms World Organization? because the 1st runner is a beautiful colored woman. ..

I notice that even In The Miss Universe Pagent it's the Same kind of Countries that always get Pick I have Never Seen a Miss Mexico as A Miss World Or Thailand or Phillipnes or Even El Slavador. It would be nice if they could Pick A MISS Mexico or More of Central America as Miss World or Miss Universe

[Lilla88able]

@keskus2000 I think the same! In miss World different countries have the same opportunitys... In miss Universe they always choose the same countries!
