In the My Paper’s exclusive, they reported that the 2009 Miss Singapore World Ris Low, 19, had earlier been found guilty of credit-card fraud.
The beauty queen was convicted of five charges of misappropriation, cheating using illegally obtained credit cards, and impersonating their users’ identities.
The first-time offender was sentenced in May this year to 24 months of supervised probation, said a Subordinate Courts spokesman in response to a query from my paper.
Another 60 charges were taken into consideration for the purposes of sentencing, he said.
Court documents show that Miss Low spent a total of more than $2,400 on at least four separate occasions, using at least three different credit cards in April and May last year.
my paper understands that her previous employer, a health-care company, made a police report about her in April last year.
It suspected that Miss Low, who worked there for five months as a patient-service assistant, had used credit cards belonging to its patients. It asked her to leave the following month.
Before leaving, she was said to have returned a part – an unspecified sum – of the total amount she had spent using the cards.
When contacted, Miss Low, now a student, said that she was “not in a position to comment”.
The international Miss World pageant will be held in Johannesburg, South Africa, in December. It is unclear whether Miss Low will be allowed to leave the country to take part in it.

[YouTube Video Transcript]Hi, this is Zen Sensei here from HowtoWriteinJapanese. Today, I’m here to share my views on the hot and exciting topic of Ms Ris Low BOOMZ.
While it’s easy for us to laugh at her expense (even my mother insisted we watch her videos over and over again…), the question in my mind is:
‘Are the Organizers of the Miss World Singapore 2009 Event Taking Responsibility?’
They must have heard her speak during the competition and yet they let her win. What’s going on here?!
As for Ms Ris Low, credit fraud? – NOT okay. Going for your dreams? I support that.
In the meantime, she might want to learn how to speak Japanese instead? She can do that at our website!
Thanks for listening!
I personally feel that Ris should be stripped off from Ms Sgp title. 1st, she was dishonest not to reveal her “criminal record” at the point of filling up the paegent application form (since she only made known to the organisers after she won the title)-that shows how dishonest she is. 2nd, to represent Sgp (ie. us) to compete in an Int’l contest,the case exhibits much of her so called “moral & values” -a disgrace to represent us indeed. Very ungracious!

Is she realli 19, I mean realli? She looks 25.
Personally, I think…
A pageant takes more than a daydream. Ris was not borned with beauty (obviously), whats with that big face and big teeth? If you wanna think ‘beyond the looks’ – She can’t even speak properly. Y would she even make it in the first place? Duh.
