The Miss Taiwanese American (MTA) Pageant is an annual competition held by the Taiwan Center Foundation of Greater Los Angeles to find and encourage the next generation of leaders for the Taiwanese American community. The program showcases young Taiwanese American women in a high-quality production representing their culture, intelligence, and talent. Candidates spend five weeks during the summer in training prior to pageant night, learning presentation techniques as well as the history and current affairs of the Taiwanese American community. These skills are then applied toward community involvement and volunteer opportunities within the Taiwanese American community.
