History

edit

Phnom Penh has participated in the Miss Grand Cambodia pageant since 2020.[5] However, all 2020 – 2023 representatives were appointed by the national organizer.[5][6] After HK7 Co., Ltd. led by Sokunthea Im acquired the license and franchised the provincial competitions to local organizers in 2024, the franchise for the capital, Phnom Penh, was granted to an entrepreneur Sokun Linna.[3] Linna organized the first Miss Grand Phnom Penh in Sen Sok on 2 February 2024 and named a television personality, Kaychan Preah, the winner.[1][7]
