HA NOI — Viet Nam's Ngoc Oanh finished third runner-up in the final round of the Asian Supermodel contest held in Bangkok, Thailand on Wednesday.

The top prize went to the South African representative while models from China and Portugal claimed first and second runners-up spots, respectively.

The result was deemed a disappointment for Oanh, who had been considered a promising candidate for the title after winning two important titles in the event's sub-contests, including Best in Swimwear and Miss Popular.-VNS
