Historic Win For American Samoa
The Samoan team could hardly hide its excitement as the celebrations went on. “Are we surprised? Not really”, Samoan Team leader told the journalist, speaking just after receiving the award for Most Humble People In The World.
It turns out that due to a tiny logistical concern, only votes from the Samoan judges has been counted. However, Samoan organizers emphasized that the issue could not have had any impact on the final outcome.
