Miss Canada: why I have been denied entry into China
Miss Canada - Anastasia Lin - spoke to 5 live's Dotun Adebayo about why she believes the Chinese authorities are denying her the opportunity to compete in the Miss World competition in Sanya.
Lin says she hasn't received an invitation letter that all other contestants have, and believes it is because she speaks out on human rights issues in the country.
Talking about why she has input into protests she says:
"I'm not political person, I'm an actress [but] I thought I could use the platform of beauty pageants to speak out for these people".
