Bangkok – Thailand’s international transvestite beauty pageant has been postponed indefinitely amid political turmoil in the capital, organisers told AFP on Thursday.

The Miss International Queen contest – a staple of the transvestite pageant scene – was due to be held in Oct in the kingdom’s beach resort of Pattaya, but organisers postponed it for a month due to the political unrest.

On Thursday, they said they would postpone it indefinitely because some contestants had been reluctant to travel to Thailand.
