Indonesia at major beauty pageants

This is a list of Indonesia's official representatives and their placements at the Big Four international beauty pageants, considered the most important in the world. The country has won one victory:

• One — Miss International crown (2017)

Hundreds of beauty pageants are conducted yearly, but the Big Four are considered the most prestigious,[1] widely covered and broadcast by media.[2] The Wall Street Journal,[3][4] BBC News,[5] CNN,[6] Xinhua News Agency,[7] and global news agencies such as Reuters[8] and Agence France-Presse[9][10] collectively refer to the four major pageants as "Big Four" namely: Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International, and Miss Earth.[11][12][13]

National Franchises and Organizations

The Indonesian franchise holders of the four major beauty pageants are the following:

• The Royal Highest Family of Surakarta Sunanate, Princess Mooryati Soedibyo and Princess Putri Kuswisnuwardhani — Puteri Indonesia and Puteri Indonesia Lingkungan[14] for both Miss Universe[15] and Miss International.[16]
• Liliana Tanaja Tanoesoedibjo — Miss Indonesia[17] for Miss World.[18]
• Johnnie Sugiarto — Miss Earth Indonesia[19] for Miss Earth.[20]

The criteria for the Big Four inclusion are based on specific standards such as the pageant's international prominence and prestige accepted by mainstream media; the quality and quantity of crowned delegates recognized by international franchisees; the winner's post pageant activities; the pageant's longevity, consistency, and history; the execution of the pageant's specific cause, platform, and advocacy; the overall pre-pageant activities, production quality and global telecast; the enormity of internet traffic; and the extent of popularity across the globe.[21]
