ris+low+miss+singapore+world+2009 Ris Low Gives Up Miss Singapore World 2009 TitleFinally, newly crowned Miss Singapore World 2009 Ris Low has gave up the crown with immediate effect, few days after her conviction for credit card fraud was exposed. After discussion between the organiser ERM World Marketing and Ris Low’s parents, the organizer accepts Ris Low’s resignation because they cannot compromise on the contest rules, regulations and the image of the Miss Singapore World Pageant.

It sounds like she volunteered to give up the title but seems like she was “asked” to resign.

The video clip was presented in a way to ridicule her.

‘The incident was a one-time interview which misled the Singapore public to believe she spoke English poorly. During the Grand Finals competition held at the Shangri La hotel on the July 31, she spoke perfectly good English, had a good answer (short, sharp and sweet) and performed very well to impress the 11 judges that she was good enough to win.
