Puteri Indonesia is on the horizon and all of the 39 candidates are hoping to capture a crown, but only three crowns are up for grabs. The three winners of Puteri Indonesia will go on and represent their country of Indonesia at their respective international pageants. First place is crowned Miss Universe Indonesia, second place is crowned Miss International Indonesia, and third place is crown Miss Supranational Indonesia. Indonesia took home the Miss International crown for the very first time, and only time, in 2017 with Kevin Liliana; however, the island country is yet to win the Miss Universe and Miss Supranational crown.
Puteri Indonesia has invited Miss Universe winners in the past to be honorary guests, but it wasn’t until the 2016 edition of the pageant when the organization invited Edymar Martinez – Miss International 2015. Just like last year’s edition of the pageant, all three reigning international queens – Miss Universe (Catriona Gray), Miss International (Mariem Velazco), and Miss Supranational (Valeria Vazquez) – are invited and will attend the coronation night. Also, it is traditional that each of the queens wear an exclusively designed Kebaya during the coronation night.
The coronation night will take place tomorrow on March 8thwhich is hours away. With that being said, here are the Puteri Indonesia 2019 predictions.
