L-R: Tiffany Lam, Rachel Tan, Diana Wu

The results of this year's Miss Chinese International turns out to be a huge upset by many. The eventual winner, Rachel Tan came out of the blue to capture the crown, and becomes the first representative from Kuala Lumpur to capture the title, topping the success of her presucessor, Angela Foo, who was 2nd runner up at MCI 2002. Rachel is currently studying in the UK and her ambition is to become a lawyer.

Tiffany Lam, the representative from Hong Kong was dubbed a favourite from the start. Although she did not get the Miss Friendship award that many had hoped, she did not go home empty handed and became the highest placed Hong Kong contestant since Sonija Kwok in 2000. She was competiting strongly throughout the competition, showing great improvements both physically and mentally.

Diana Wu is the third contestant from Toronto to have made it to the top 3. Also a favourite since the start, the Canadian beauty definitely lost in height (perhaps figure also) but her presentation definitely left a lasting impression on the judges. Diana is currently studying Life Science? at the University of Toronto and dreams of becoming a physician.
