The pageant world was again shocked by the announcement of Miss Universe Malaysia 2023. This is because Serena Lee was suddenly announced as the winner of Miss Universe Malaysia 2023.
The news of this victory was announced on the Miss Universe Malaysia Instagram account.
"Congratulations Malaysia, presenting the newly crowned Miss Universe Malaysia 2023, Ms Serena Lee."
This news made many people confused because previously the Miss Universe Organization as the parent licensee for Miss Universe Malaysia had announced to cancel the competition. This happened as a result of the alleged sexual harassment case that occurred at Miss Universe Indonesia. It should be noted that the license holders for Miss Universe Indonesia and Malaysia are the same company, PT Capella Swastika Karya owned by Poppy Capella.
This is even surprising for Malaysians. The Miss Universe Malaysia Instagram account was also invaded by local netizens because Serena Lee, who was considered to have suddenly won without any announcement of the grand final and the event.
Not only that, the account also uploaded information that Serena Lee would participate in the 73rd Miss Universe pageant.
"She will represent Malaysia at the 72nd Miss Universe competition in El Salvador."
Responding to Miss Universe Malaysia's victory, the Miss Universe Organization also uploaded its statement via Instagram story.
'"PT Capella Swastika Karya and its representatives will not progress further with Miss Universe Malaysia 2023 and will not be granted a contract extension with our organization. We will cancel Miss Universe Malaysia 2023 and will make arrangements for the title holder from Indonesia 2023 to compete in Miss Universe."
The Miss Universe Organization (MUO) is considering granting the Miss Universe Indonesia license to another party for 2024. This was done after the Miss Universe Indonesia license was revoked from Poppy Capella's PT Capella Swastika Karya (PT CSK).
"We hope to return to Indonesia. We will consider granting a license to a new franchise for 2024," said the Miss Universe Organization (MUO) via email to CNNIndonesia.com, Monday (14/8).
MUO, they continued, is very open to anyone who wants to collaborate to hold the Miss Universe Indonesia license.
