 Grand final coronation |
Miss Grand Indonesia 2018 was the first edition of the Miss Grand Indonesia pageant,[1][2][3] held on July 21, 2018, at the Jakarta Convention Center, Senayan City, Central Jakarta.[4][5] Thirty contestants, who qualified for the national stage via regional auditions, competed for the title.[4][5] Of whom, a 26-year-old University of Indonesia-graduated model representing Bengkulu, Nadia Purwoko, was announced the winner,[5][6] while Vivi Wijaya Huang of North Sumatra and Stephanie Cecillia Munthe of Jakarta were named the first and second runners-up, respectively.[5][7]
Nadia later represented Indonesia at the international parent stage, Miss Grand International 2018, held on October 25 that year in Yangon, Myanmar, where she was named the second runner-up as well as obtained the special title of Best in Social Media Award.[8]
The event was supported by the Ministry of Tourism of Indonesia, Junior Chamber International (JCI), and MarkPlus, Inc.,[2] and was broadcast nationwide through a free-to-air television network, SCTV.[9]
History
After 5 consecutive years of appointing representatives to compete at the Miss Grand International pageant, the first stand-alone Miss Grand Indonesia was scheduled to happen in 2018 following the franchise transfer to a new organizer, Dharma Gantari Foundation.[3][9] The memorandum of understanding singing ceremony between the international organ and the local franchise holder was held at Indonesia's Ministry of Tourism Office in Jakarta on January 29, 2018.[1][2][10]
Selection of contestants
The finalists for Miss Grand Indonesia 2018 were determined through the audition held in 18 cities countrywide from February to April 2018.[1][3][10] The qualified contestants were later assigned to represent one of Indonesia's provinces that they were affiliated with.[1]
