the world, but even more so in Algeria as the Queen, upon her homecoming, was flooded and overwhelmed by officials, inquisitive
journalists and paparazzi, family, fans and friends. For such was the first time in history a fellow Algerian brings
home an international beauty crown.

Escorted
to a grandiose press conference held in Algiers' El Aurassi Hotel, an elegant Samah reveals her emotions:
"I'm so
happy for this victory which I dedicate to Algeria. I'm also happy to have met and competed with beauties the world over in
a strong and wonderful competition. I'm even more so happy that my crowning coincided with the 55th Anniversary of the National
Revolution Day and Algeria's historic qualification to the 2010 FIFA World Cup. I hope to rightfully fulfill my duties as
Miss Globe 2009."
Samah Gahfaz, an architect by profession, went on to reveal that she spent her younger years studying
and working in order to dutifully support her family. Having achieved that she went on to pursue her inner most passion that
is modeling, without ever having in mind to be called one day to represent Algeria at an international beauty pageant, let

support from the Algerian authorities, his local organization is much ambitious about hosting the Miss Globe 2010 pageant
