Teresa Chaivisut, vice-president of MGI, sent us a note of clarification:
“Although we believe Anea was the deserving winner at MGI coronation event, she has failed to fulfill her obligations as the reigning queen. First, her studies were in the way, making it very hard for us to schedule her activities. At several times we had to reschedule, cancel events, change or lose international flights. Miss Grand International should be ready and focused on her job and charitable work.
In addition, she has also become very demaning, always asking for things which were not promised or part of the contact she signed, including bringing her grandmother to Bangkok, to live with her. She demanded for additional services which truly made no sense.
Her actions were disrespectful to the organisation and Mr Nawat does not appreciate this kind of attitude, which brought us to make this decision.
Claire Elizabeth Parker is very happy and ready to take over the duties as Miss Grand International 2015. She will move to Thailand shortly and we will hold a press conference on April 1st for her official crowning. We expect Claire to vist at least 7 or 8 countries as Miss Grand International and we are sure that she will suit the title properly and do an excellent job.
We take this opportunity to inform that soon we will also announce the host country for Miss Grand International 2016.
This is the truth and we have nothing to hide, so please publish it”.

Miss Grand International 2015, Anea Garcia dethroned
Anea Garcia has stepped down from the title of Miss Grand International 2015. The announcement was made official by the Miss Grand International Organisation on their official Facebook page. Below is the transcript of the official announcement…
“With immediate effect, Miss Anea Garcia will step down from her position as Miss Grand International 2015 due to unable to fulfil and follow the contractual agreement with Miss Grand International Organisation.
We are pleased to welcome Miss Claire Elizabeth Parker to take over this honourable position and continue the honourable duty as Miss Grand International 2015.
Congratulations to Miss Claire Elizabeth Parker as the new Miss Grand International 2015.
Miss Grand International Organisation”
The first runner-up to Miss Grand International 2015, Claire Parker from Australia, became the new Miss Grand International 2015. Claire will now take on the duties and responsibilities as the new Miss Grand International.
The correspondent of Global Beauties reported Teresa Chaivisut, vice-president of MGI, sent them a note of clarification of what made them take this decision:
“Although we believe Anea was the deserving winner at MGI coronation event, she has failed to fulfill her obligations as the reigning queen. First, her studies were in the way, making it very hard for us to schedule her activities. At several times we had to reschedule, cancel events, change or lose international flights. Miss Grand International should be ready and focused on her job and charitable work.
In addition, she has also become very demaning, always asking for things which were not promised or part of the contact she signed, including bringing her grandmother to Bangkok, to live with her. She demanded for additional services which truly made no sense.

However, the pageant circuit is not ready to believe that this was the real reason. Many of the fans believe that she just tried her luck at Miss Grand International to get a grooming for Miss Universe Dominican Republic, as Anea always wanted to compete for Miss Universe. People think that she might just have done this intentionally to prepare for Miss Universe Dominican Republic this year. However, there is no confirmation to this. We shall see if she really competes in the said pageant in coming times.

Pageant says Miss Grand International from R.I. ‘dethroned’ for inappropriate photo
Source – Providence Journal – 31 March 2016 – By Jenna Pelletier
Anea Garcia, a former Miss USA runner-up from Cranston, says she quit because she feared for her safety after she was assaulted.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The Miss Grand International organization on Thursday continued to insist that Anea Garcia was “dethroned” as the pageant’s top winner, adding an accusation that she had been let go in part for taking an inappropriate photo while wearing the pageant’s crown.
Garcia had said in an email to The Providence Journal Wednesday night that she resigned her title, and that she had felt her safety was in jeopardy. She said she was sexually assaulted in South Sudan in early March while representing the organization, and it “showed no concern” about the incident after she reported it.
In response to Garcia’s statement, Thailand-based Miss Grand International vice president Teresa Chaivisut emailed The Journal saying that Garcia had, indeed, been fired.
Chaivisut said Garcia was let go for taking an inappropriate photo wearing the Miss Grand International crown, in violation of a contract Garcia had signed. Chaivisut emailed The Journal a photo of Garcia in a dress with a revealing slit in the upper leg-crotch area.
Chaivisut added that Garcia, a former Miss USA third-place finisher who grew up in Cranston and was Miss Rhode Island USA, had “asked to step-down but with conditions … out of the contract agreed in the first place, therefore we dethroned her.”
Garcia won the Miss Grand International title in October, representing the Dominican Republic. In exchange for promoting Miss Grand International’s message of peace, titleholders receive $40,000. Garcia received a cash advance of $19,000, Chaivisut said Thursday, after she requested the money to pay a college tuition fee and a medical bill for her grandmother.
The pageant had said last week that Garcia was let go because she was difficult to work with and spent too much time on her studies at Roger Williams University.
Garcia did not respond immediately to a Journal request for comment on Thursday’s word from the pageant.
Garcia wrote in her Wednesday statement to The Journal that she was required to travel alone to foreign countries with no contact person or escort.
The pageant denied the claim, saying that an escort from the organization, Nuttawat “Boss” Auttasingha, was with her throughout the trip to South Sudan. Chaivisut emailed The Journal a copy of Auttasingha’s and Garcia’s plane tickets. They show scheduled arrival times on March 7 in Juba, South Sudan of 9:20 a.m. for Garcia and 10:20 a.m. for Auttasingha. Garcia flew from Boston, while Auttasingha left from Bangkok, Thailand, where the pageant is headquartered.
Typically, titleholders travelling internationally to make appearances fly out of Bangkok on the same flight as an escort, Chaivisut said. Both parties agreed that having a chaperone meet her in the destination country would be acceptable from December through March, while Garcia was spending time in the U.S. to attend a wedding and attend a college course, she added.
Chaivisut said Garcia reported the sexual assault in South Sudan about a week after she left the country. In an email to Garcia, later sent to The Journal, Chaivisut asked Garcia why she did not report it to her escort, Auttansingha, as soon as it happened.
The email went on to say that the assault was a “big accusation” that needed to be investigated before “we can send our concern further.” She wrote that bringing it up “will [affect] our relationship with the country greatly.”
“We basically need hard evidence,” Chaivisut wrote. “But luckily you are safe.”
