The Vietnamese entrant in the International Model Festival 2009 in China, Thach Hong Nhung, won the Miss Talent title on the last day of competition.

Before leaving China, Nhung’s laptop broke so she couldn’t immediately relay the good news to Vietnam. When she returned to Vietnam, she lost her mobile phone, so it was not until the day after she returned home, May 15, that Nhung told VietNamNet about the news.

“I won the Miss Talent title on the last day of the contest. I was very surprised but I believe the organising board was right,” Nhung told VietNamNet.

The model from the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho said that the title and experience she learnt from the festival will be very useful for her future as a supermodel.

Nhung said she heard of the first case of A/H1N1 in China in the last days of the festival. She was very worried and only wanted to come home immediately.
