WENA GOEIYANA

“Firstly I want to thank the organisers for inviting me for this pageant as a judge. During the judging process we had so much fun. The winner deserves the title and I wish her all the best.”

BENNETT RATHNAYAKE

“I feel that all the girls had confidence. During the competitio­n they learned from different experts. During thier training for the pageant they were groomed to be stronger women.”

NALAKA HEWAMADDUM­A

“All the girls were really smart and all of them wanted to give out their best. They accepted the winner without a problem. We all looked at a person who could represent Sri Lanka and I think Nadia is capable of it. Her project too is quite amazing.”

VEENA JAYAKODY

“We had to consider many criteria, not just beauty. So it was quite a challengin­g experience being a judge. Initially they weren’t very confident but with the training they came out of their shelves and faced the pageant well.”

JOHANN PEIRIS

“The standard of the competitio­n has improved. Even the girls faced it with much confidence. Their personalit­ies were quite impressive and it wasn’t an easy selection.”

KAY NG

“It was a great honour to be one of the judges for Miss Universe Sri Lanka 2018. This year was very tough because they were very intelligen­t apart from the fact that they were all beautiful. We need to choose the right person to compete with contestant­s from around the world.”
