During the 72nd edition of the “Miss Universe” competition, it was Sheynnis Palacios, Miss Nicaragua, who won the coveted title. Nevertheless, although she did not win the crown that day, Miss Thailand attracted a lot of attention. The young woman, now 25 years old, is surely the candidate who will have made the most impression. And for good reason, she made an unexpected gesture of great nobility of heart: she paid tribute to her father who was a garbage collector and her mother who was a sweeper by wearing a dress specially designed with tin can tabs. During the preliminary rounds of the competition, Anna Sueangam-iam surprised the jury, the public and the viewers with this atypical, yet sumptuous dress, which has a deep symbolism with her own family history. In January 2023, People magazine detailed this moving moment.
She went from “Miss Garbage” to “Miss Thailand”!

A feline face, a goddess-like figure, magnificent hair… Yes, Anna is breathtakingly beautiful. However, she has come a long way. Despite her prestigious title of Miss Thailand, she was often nicknamed ” Miss Garbage » (Editor’s note: garbage in French) because of his parents’ thankless job: his father collects waste and his mother is a sweeper. She also declared that she had always suffered from mockery towards her. Since childhood, because of her parents’ work, she grew up under criticism and contemptuous looks. It was already a great revenge for her to have been able to glean the crown of a beauty queen. But, even more, being a candidate for Miss Universe was a real achievement and a nice snub to the haters.
A great revenge on the stage of Miss Universe 2023

It’s a way of showing the world that many things in reality have their own value and beauty! “, she writes. “ You shouldn’t stay stuck in the dark environment you were born into. Always believe in yourself and keep in mind that you have the power to change your own life for the better! », concluded Miss Thailand. Excellent philosophy of life.
