ASSESSMENT REPORT
To: Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism
From: Organizing board of Miss Student Pageant
Subject: NTU as host of Miss Student Pageant
Date: 9th March, 2023
1. Introduction:
As requested, this report aims to evaluate the suitability of Nha Trang
University for hosting Miss Student Pageant. It also summarizes the
strength and weakness of its location, facilities,accommodations,
experiences and security which the suitability depends on.
2. Location and assessment:
Nha Trang is a popular tourist destination, offering beautiful scenery and
a vibrant atmosphere, which could enhance the pageant's appeal. Nha
Trang boasts good transportation links, including Cam Ranh
International Airport and a well-developed road network, allowing for
easy travel for contestants, guests, and media. However, NTU is located
slightly away from the Nha Trang city center. While this might offer a
quieter environment, it could add travel time for some activities. Nha
Trang can experience traffic congestion, particularly during peak season.
This could affect travel times for pageant-related events.
3. Facilities:
Nha Trang University boasts an impressive infrastructure that could
potentially accommodate the Miss Student Pageant. The university
offers a large stadium suitable for hosting major events. Additionally,
there are three grand halls with high-wattage air conditioning, each
capable of seating thousands of attendees. A separate hall caters to
smaller conferences. However, some aspects require further evaluation.
While a 12-story versatile building provides air-conditioned rooms, the
condition of restrooms in other areas might pose a concern. These
restrooms reportedly have unpleasant odors and require maintenance.
Furthermore, the absence of dedicated changing rooms for participants
needs to be addressed.
4. Accommodation:
Nha Trang University dormitories could provide readily available on-site
accommodation for contestants. Nha Trang offers a wide range of hotels
catering to various budgets, suitable for guests and judges. Nonetheless,
during peak season, hotel rates in Nha Trang can be high, potentially
impacting budget planning. While some universities offer on-campus
housing, it likely wouldn't be sufficient to accommodate everyone
associated with the pageant.
5. Security:
The university likely has its security personnel who can be
supplemented by additional security measures during the pageant.
Universities typically have controlled access points, which can be
beneficial for managing crowds and ensuring the safety of participants.
However, managing security for a large-scale event within the university
grounds might require additional resources.
5. Experiences:
While Nha Trang University has experience hosting major events like
futsal tournaments, basketball championships (VBA), and conferences
(Viettesol), it might have limited experience hosting beauty pageants,
potentially requiring additional support from experienced pageant
organizers.
6. Recommendation:
While Nha Trang University presents some advantages for hosting a
beauty pageant, a closer examination reveals significant drawbacks that
may clash with the unique requirements of the Miss Student Pageant.
Given these concerns, it would be prudent to explore alternative venues
to ensure a successful event.
