GB's Reaction: Congratulations to Miss Indonesia and our Indonesian fans. We are sure there will be loads of happy hearts all over Indonesia tonight. As for the pageant, it was very long and drawn out, as always. Miss International is just completely outdated in its current form. The winner is very elegant and we should have had her on our leaderboard. The top 15 was filled with shocks and surprises. The gorgeous delegates from Lithuania and Mexico were the biggest shocks for us. But Miss International is a month long experience, so you never know what's going on behind the scenes. We also respect the fact that the Miss International judging panel (mostly from Japan) have their own unique appreciation of beauty. Global Beauties would like to congratulate all the winners!
