 Miss Universe 2005
She represented Indonesia in 2005 Miss Universe Pageant. She made into the top fifteen, competed in the Evening Gown Competition but failed to make the top ten. She finished 15th place overall

 Controversy

Although not reported to the police, there was a controversy surrounding her involvement in the 2005 Miss Universe Pageant. She was accused of breaking the Code of Law 281, edict number 01/U/1984, regarding Cultural and Educational conducts. Indonesian laws forbids any kind of involvement in international beauty pageants and considers such as immoral. In 2006, the winner of Miss Indonesia 2005 and participant of Miss Universe 2006 Nadine Chandrawinata was also reported to the police [1], which eventually traced back to Artika Sari Devi and the Miss Indonesia Foundation [2]. The issue however was soon forgotten.
