History
Mister International Organization was Singapore-based owned and organized by the former president and late founder, Alan Sim,[1] Since the first edition, 80 countries have sent their representative to this pageant, with an annual average of 38 contestants.[2] Mister International Organization licenses local organizations that wish to select the Mister International contestant for their country, and approves the selection method for national contestants. Traditionally, Mister International lived in Singapore during his reign and was allowed to live anywhere in every country (hence the name Mister International).[3]
Since Sim's death in October 2022, the organization relocated its headquarters to Thailand and Pradit Pradinunt being the new president from October 2022.
