Miss Universe 2009
A controversy made headlines when the Ministry of Culture passed a regulation that allowed only one national pageant to be held in one year. This year, 2009, the license was given to the Mrs. Vietnam contest.
The Hoan Vu company, which organized the 2008 Miss Universe contest in Nha Trang, picked Hoàng Yến, who had been the 1st runner-up, to compete at Miss Universe 2009 in the Bahamas. In final night on August 23, 2009 she missed the first cut. No contestant competing from Asia made the first cut in Miss Universe 2009 and the first time since Miss Universe 1991.
