Miss World Malaysia is a national beauty pageant and an organisation based in Malaysia. The winner represents the country at Miss World. On occasion, when the winner does not qualify (due to age or any other reason), a runner-up is sent.

The reigning Miss World Malaysia is Saroop Roshi of Perak.[1] It is Perak's first victory in 38 years, and the fifth victory of the state in the pageant's history. She will represent her country at Miss World 2024. Meanwhile, the representative for Malaysia in Miss World 2023 is Wenanita Angang of Sabah.[2]

History

Eric Morley first invitation for Malaysia in Miss World was in 1959 when the country was known as Malaya.[3] In 1963, the first edition of Miss World Malaysia was organised to select Malaysia's first representative at Miss World. The pageant was held on 20 April 1963, at the Stadium Negara in Kuala Lumpur. 19-year-old Catherine Loh, representing Brunei was being elected as the winner.[4] Loh was crowned by the French actress Capucine in an event that was attended by 30 candidates from across the federation. Loh had been “Miss Brunei” for three consecutive years.[5]

On 7 August 2018, the pageant moved to a new management under Fantastic Golden Sdn. Bhd. which has been the official licencee of Miss World Malaysia Organisation while Singaporean singer, songwriter and social entrepreneur Dr. Sean Wong, PBM, as appointed by Mrs. Julia Morley, chairwoman of Miss World Organisation, is the national director of the prestigious beauty contest.[6][7]

On 31 January 2022, it was confirmed via Instagram of the national director of Miss World Malaysia, Dr. Sean Wong, had acquired the local franchises of Miss Supranational Malaysia and Miss Grand Malaysia pageants.[8][9][10]
