History
Miss Macau was held for the first time in 1972 and the program was sponsored by the Sociedade de Turismo e Diversões de Macau (STDM). In 1972, Miss Macau was allowed to represent Macau at the Miss Portugal pageant. Previously, Macau was a province from 1897 to 1976 and later the autonomous region of Macau in Portugal from 1976 to 1999. In 1972, Miss Macau won the Miss Congeniality award at the Miss Portugal competition. Between 1985 and 1998 the Miss Macau pageant was organized by TDM - Teledifusão de Macau.
Miss Macau 1963
A Macau beauty queen identified in 1963, she is Ying Yun Hiu. She competed at Miss Asia in April 1963 in Tokyo, Japan, and named as the first Macau beauty queen who competed internationally. She also scheduled to compete at Miss Universe 1963 but enabled to compete since Macau politically between 1897 and 1976 was a province of Portugal.
Macau Pageant Alliance
In 2009, the MPA or Macau Pageant Alliance held for the first time. The alliance is officially franchise holder for Miss World and Miss International.[1]
