63 points of Vietnam include 12 points recorded by Miss Universe Vietnam Nguyen Thuy Lam at Miss Universe 2008 and 51 by Duong Truong Thien Ly at Miss World 2008. Thuy Lam was in the top 15 of Miss Universe 2008 while Thien Ly won Miss People's Choice title at Miss World 2008 and was highly appreciated by bankers initially. Cao Thuy Duong at Miss International and Chung Thuc Quyen at Miss Tourism Queen International get no points. This year, Vietnam sent no one to Miss Earth.
Venezuela remains on the top of the Grand Slam Ranking, followed by India (2nd) and the United States (3rd).
