TVB Announces “Miss Hong Kong” Election Suspension For One Year

According to Hong Kong media reports, 47 selections of Miss Hong Kong have been held since 1973. Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, this year it was closed for one year. This unprecedented decision also made last year’s Hong Kong sisters top three Huang Jiawen, Faye Wong and Gu Peiling become the first three Hong Kong sisters in history for two years.
Yu Yongshan, a TVB senior and Hong Kong sister event coordinator, confirmed this news in an interview. She said that because of the epidemic, many problems could not be solved. For example, university students returning from overseas participate in the election every year. In addition, there will be a lot of publicity activities and large press conferences during the Hong Kong sister’s campaign. Are all the ladies wearing masks to participate? “Considering that many problems cannot be solved, plus that it is not timely to produce such a program at a special time, I decided to suspend it for one year.”
Although the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant appeared in 1946, it was not until 1973 that Hong Kong Television Broadcasting Co., Ltd. officially began to host the annual Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant. Many Hong Kong actresses familiar to the audience, including Zhao Yazhi, Zhang Manyu, Li Jiaxin, Chen Farong , Yuan Yongyi, Guo Aiming, Cai Shaofen, Guo Keying, Guo Xianni, Hu Xing’er and so on have participated in the selection of Miss Hong Kong.
