Dharamsala, April 18 – Undeterred by lack of response , the organisers of Miss Tibet pageant once again are planning to hold Third Miss Tibet contest in October this year. The beauty pageant will also have a film festival of Tibetan films.
The person behind the organization of last two Miss Tibet contests, Mr. Lobsang Wangyal said that last year was disappointing as only one contestant arrived for the show but the function was held as he was not inclined to discontinue an event which was being organised despite opposition from many quarters. He said the beauty contest is according to the wishes of the young Tibetans living outside Tibet. He said this year he expected better response.
Mr Wangyal said a film festival of films relating to Tibetans and their cause was being planned . He said many important films like We Are No Monks, “The Cup” and “Dreaming Lhasa” will be screened during the festival.
