VOV.VN - Dr. Nguyen Thi Huyen, a Doctor of Philosophy in entomology and entrepreneur, has been crowned Mrs. Supranational 2025 after an outstanding performance at the international pageant's grand finale in Myanmar on July 13, surpassing 39 contestants from around the world.

Representing Vietnam on the stage, Dr. Huyen delivered a captivating performance of the traditional Chầu Văn dance “Cô Đôi Thượng Ngàn,” a spiritual folk art form that introduces the rich heritage of Vietnamese hầu đồng (spirit mediumship) honouring the Mother Goddess. Her performance received high praise for its expressive theatricality and the seamless fusion of spiritual symbolism and stage artistry.
In the Q&A segment, she also impressed the judging panel with her fluent and heartfelt answer in English on the role of cultural identity and the importance of embracing diversity.
When being asked about the role of cultural identity in her life and how she would use her title to celebrate diversity, Dr. Huyen stated that cultural identity was the soul of her being, as it carried the stories of her ancestors and the beauty of her homeland. She emphasised that it reminded her to live with pride and purpose. With her newly earned title, she said wished to become a cultural bridge, by promoting heritage through exchanges, speeches, and preservation initiatives. According to her, embracing differences did not divide people but rather multiplied the beauty of humanity.
Originally from Hai Phong city, Huyen holds a PhD from the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology and is currently the chairwoman of a mineral import-export company, exemplifying the modern, multifaceted role of women in society.
Huyen earned the right to compete on the global stage after claiming the first runner-up title at the Mrs Grand Vietnam 2025 pageant, held in Hanoi on June 30.
