“I prepared for Mister International Thailand (MIT), but I didn’t have much time for the global competition. However, participating in MIT before the main event helped me a lot. All the activities within the contest taught us many things. It helped improve my catwalk and mindset, showing me how to develop as a person,” Goodburn told ‘Lifestyle Asia.’
“I’m delighted to win this crown for Thailand for the first time, and I’m honored to be the first male pageant king in Thai history. After this, I will pursue my career in acting and modeling as usual. I also look forward to working with a few CSR organizations and possibly the TIJ for Thailand,” this year’s winner said.

However, after participating, I realized that these competitions are about much more than that,” Goodburn said that compassion, empathy, being a good listener, and representing the voice of society are all very important aspects for contestants to have.
“Before getting to know the contestants, I was slightly scared. As a Thai person and having our camp in Ayutthaya, Thailand’s historical hub, sometimes people can be bored of cultural stuff. But to see everyone so appreciative and interested in our culture made me really happy. Although it was a competition, it felt like networking. I made many new, incredible friends from different countries. It’s an opportunity you don’t really get,” the winner said.
