Television presenter and Miss Grand Thailand 2017, Pamela Premika, was invited by Mr. Nawat Itsaragril to host the event and did a great job. The candidates paraded in MGI swimsuits, demonstrating once again the strength of this group, even with some stumbles, especially when they descended the staircase!

Take a look at what we have to say about the presentation of each of the candidates for the Miss Grand International 2020 title:
