Jakarta, CNNIndonesia —

Crown Indonesian princess 2023 was officially awarded to Farhana Nariswari Wisandana from West Java. Farhana advanced as the winner after defeating 45 other finalists representing 34 provinces in Indonesia.

“Congratulations to West Java 1” said host in charge, Choky Sitohang and Patricia Gouw in the Puteri Indonesia 2023 Final at the Jakarta Convention Center, Senayan, Jakarta, Friday (19/5).

In a question and answer session with the jury, Farhana talked about the tendency of hedonism that poisons many young generations, but with an empty heart and soul.

“I believe that the wealth in our lives does not come from what we have, but from how much we give and how we touch the lives of others,” said Farhana.

Position runner-up I was won by Yasinta Aurelia from East Java who will hold the title of Miss Indonesia for the Environment. Temporary position runner-up II won by Lulu Zaharani Krisna from Lampung and holds the title of Miss Indonesia for Tourism.

The three winners officially received the crown from their predecessors, Miss Indonesia 2022 Laksmi Shari De Neefe Suardana, Miss Indonesia Environment 2022 Cindy May McGuire, and Miss Indonesia Tourism 2022 Adinda Chreseilla.

Later, the three winners will represent Indonesia in a number of international beauty events such as the upcoming Miss Charm, Miss International and Miss Supranational 2023.
