Only the 2013 and 2015 editions that Miss Supranational broke the 80 candidates mark but since the launch of Mister Supranational and introduction of on-stage questions in 2016, Miss Supranational did not break the 80 candidates barrier. The most number of candidates since 2015 was in 2019.
What could be the factors? Is it Lost of interest by some countries (the reason Supra Star Search came to the rescue) or the launch of Mister Supranational caused some countries unable to send candidates due to budget constraints?
