Last year, Miss Earth held its first ever virtual show where Miss Earth Thailand 2020 Teeyapar Sretsirisuvarna represented her country at Miss Earth 2020 and placed in the Top 20 with her stellar performance. This year, Baitong Petsom will represent Thailand at the 21st edition of the Miss Earth pageant, which is to be held virtually again this year due to the uncertainty of the ongoing pandemic situation, where Lindsey Marie Coffey of the United States will crown her successor at the end of the event.
