Miss Universe 2025 — A Chaotic Finale in Thailand

Image

The Event in Brief

  • The 74th edition of the Miss Universe pageant was held on 21 November 2025 at the Impact Challenger Hall in Pak Kret (Nonthaburi), near Bangkok, Thailand.

  • The theme was “The Power of Love”, intended to emphasise purpose, empowerment and global connection.

  • The winner was Fátima Bosch of Mexico.

What Made It “Chaotic”

Several controversies and dramatic moments marked the event:

  1. Judge Resignations – A few days before the finale, some judges stepped down citing issues with the process.

  2. Backstage/Promotional Disputes – There were claims that contestants were asked to participate in promotional activity for an online gambling platform, which triggered an investigation by Thai police.

  3. Sash Ceremony Incident – During the sash-ceremony, the host committee chairman allegedly used disparaging language towards the winner, leading to walkouts by several contestants and the reigning titleholder. 

  4. Licence/Organiser Dispute – The host national organiser and the global licence holder clashed publicly over rights and unauthorized events. 

The Outcome

  • Winner: Fátima Bosch (Mexico) 

  • 1st Runner-Up: The candidate from Thailand.

  • The event still managed to produce a top 12 list of semifinalists, despite the turbulence. 

Significance & Take-Away

  • Hosting in Thailand during a mourning period (after the death of former Queen Consort Sirikit) added a layer of sensitivity and altered many event formats.

  • The controversies bring into focus issues of transparency, ethics, and organisational conduct in high-profile global pageants.

  • For Fátima Bosch, the win provides a major platform — for her country (Mexico), for representation, and for any advocacy she may champion as titleholder.

  • For Thailand and the Miss Universe brand, the event’s fractious undercurrents may trigger reform or more scrutiny in future editions.

Graham Greene : A Literary Master of Moral Complexity Introduction GRAHAM GREENE Few authors of the 20th century combined storytelling, moral inquiry, and political awareness as powerfully as Graham Greene . An English novelist, short story writer, journalist, critic, and screenwriter, Greene created works that transcended genres, blurring the boundaries between popular fiction and literary art. He wrote thrillers infused with suspense, but unlike typical detective novels, Greene’s stories grappled with profound issues of faith, doubt, betrayal, and human frailty . Over a career spanning six decades, Greene produced more than 25 novels, as well as plays, short stories, memoirs, and essays. His works ranged from Catholic-themed explorations of sin and redemption—dubbed his “Catholic novels”—to politically charged thrillers that dissected espionage, imperialism, and corruption. Novels such as The Power and the Glory , The Heart of the Matter , The End of the Affair , and Our Man in Ha...
