Miss Tourism Ghana 2024, Lawrencia Ama Yeboah, made a dazzling impression at the just-ended Miss Orient Tourism Global pageant held in Malaysia, where she emerged as Second Runner-Up, clinching multiple awards along the way.

The pageant, which celebrates global unity, tourism, and cultural diversity, saw Lawrencia deliver a standout performance that captivated both the audience and judges.

Speaking to the media after the competition, Lawrencia expressed her excitement and pride at representing Ghana on the international stage.

“It is a dream come true and honour to represent my beloved Ghana on a global stage,” she said. “From May 18 to 24, I immersed myself in the vibrant culture of Malaysia for the Miss Orient Tourism Global pageant, and I’m thrilled to share that I’ve returned home as the Second Runner-Up. It was an absolute dream come true, and I couldn’t be prouder of what we, as Ghana, achieved.”

She described the experience as a whirlwind of unforgettable moments, beginning with glamorous evening gown and swimwear photoshoots that gave her a first real taste of international pageantry.

“However, it was during the National Costume competition that my heart truly swelled with pride. I poured my soul into showcasing Ghana’s rich heritage, and standing there in our beautiful traditional attire, I was absolutely ecstatic to be named the First Runner-Up for Best National Costume. It felt like a win for every Ghanaian, a testament to our incredible artistry,” she shared.

Recounting her journey, she said, “Our journey took us from the historical charm of Melaka to the bustling energy of Kuala Lumpur, where we settled into the luxurious Royal Chulan Damansara. The excitement continued at the KL Gateway Mall, where subsidiary awards were presented. I was genuinely humbled and delighted to be awarded Miss Crowning Glory.”

At the grand finale on May 23, 2025, Lawrencia added yet another feather to her cap by being named Second Runner-Up for Miss Photogenic. Her biggest moment came when she was announced as the overall Second Runner-Up of the entire pageant.
