24-year-old 'Nghe An muse' makes a lasting impression at Miss Universe Vietnam 2023
Dau Hai Minh Anh, 24 years old, attracted attention when she entered the final round of Miss Universe Vietnam 2023 thanks to her outstanding beauty and good education.

With her elegant appearance, Dau Hai Minh Anh is affectionately called the 'muse of Nghe An' by the audience and designers. She was born in 1999, from Nghe An, graduated from Banking and Finance Law, University of Economics and Law, Ho Chi Minh City National University. The beauty said she is fluent in English and French.

She is 1.7 m tall, with measurements of 84-60-93 cm. The contestant keeps in shape by eating less spicy food and exercising regularly.

The 24-year-old beauty said she entered the Miss Universe Vietnam contest with the hope that through her efforts, she would have the opportunity to shine and use her influence to spread good values to society. She believes that this beauty pageant is a platform to convey intellectual and humane values to the community. 'I want to become a positive role model, inspiring and encouraging those around me to believe in their abilities. Above all, the title of Miss to me is not just a title, it is also a youthful dream and a noble responsibility. I believe that a strong inner self, confidence, intelligence and kindness are important factors for me to be worthy of this noble title,' she said.

The beauty considers herself a lucky girl because since childhood she had a happy life under the strict but loving teachings of her parents. As the eldest sister in the family, she witnessed her parents overcome many ups and downs in life so that her and her three sisters could have the conditions to study and grow up. She said her parents are an example for her to train herself to have a strong heart in the face of life's challenges.
'Voltair - the famous French writer has a very good saying: 'Le bonheur est souvent la seule chose qu'on puisse donner sans l'avoir et c'est en le donnant qu'on l'acquiert' (Happiness you can give when you don't have it and receive when we are willing to give it). I understand that when I am fortunate enough to receive many good things, it means I have the responsibility to give. This is also what my parents have always taught me since I was a child. Perhaps gratitude is the precious 'genetic gene' that I received from my grandparents and parents. By competing in the beauty pageant, I want to use my strength to contribute positive values to life, support the elderly, the elderly or the abandoned - where they need a voice and a good environment to live happily and joyfully', she said.

As a foreign affairs assistant for a company, Minh Anh confided that she was fortunate to receive support from her superiors and colleagues when competing in beauty pageants. She said that everyone always created the best conditions for her to both arrange her work and have time to practice and hone the necessary skills to be ready for the battle.
'I maintain practicing performance skills such as catwalk, dancing, etc. to have the most shining moments on stage. I always try to cultivate and update my social knowledge every day, because I know Miss Cosmo needs a girl with good thinking and leadership qualities to increase her influence and spread the most practical human values for life,' she confided.

Minh Anh believes that her strengths are her face, good education, kindness and a loving heart that is always ready to act to fulfill her mission in the best way possible if she is lucky enough to become a beauty queen. Meanwhile, she believes that her weakness lies in her performance skills, so she is trying to improve.

The beauty aims to reach the highest position. She said she wants to spread the message of perseverance and optimism in the contest. She wants to encourage people to discover and develop their own potential, build confidence and self-expression, as well as respect and accompany those around them. 'I want to create a positive impact in the community and contribute to building a better world,' she said.

She is one of the top candidates for the crown. In the semi-finals on December 26, Minh Anh was praised for her steady catwalk, attractive demeanor, and energy. Her professional posing helped her show off her long, straight legs and toned body.

Her style in the national costume performance was praised for her attractiveness and powerful catwalk. On beauty forums, fans expected her to succeed Miss Ngoc Chau.

Minh Anh prefers an elegant, feminine style in everyday life. She and 37 other contestants are in Lam Dong to participate in the sub-contests, practice, and prepare for the finals (December 31).
