Overview
The national finalists for the Miss Grand Malaysia 2018 pageant were determined through three selection systems: the 8 automatic spots were given to the respective state pageant winners and first-runner-up (Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, Sabah, and Sarawak) while the remaining 16 were pre-determined from either the state pageant finalists or the central audition. The wildcard format is based on decisions made by the Miss Grand Malaysia director, Jude Benjamin, who would pick potential contestants considered to be ones with great potential and deserving of the chance to compete on the national stage.
