With Harashta Haifa Zahra and Ketut Permata Juliastrid Sari winning Miss Supranational 2024 and Miss Cosmo 2024 respectively, this has become the most successful Puteri Indonesia batch to date.
It was announced that the coronation night would again be held at the Plenary Hall, Jakarta Convention Center in Jakarta on 8 MarchâÂÂcoinciding with International Women's Day. The Foundation has met with Maria F. Febryani as Creative Director for PT. Indonesia Entertainment Production (IEP), a subsidiary of the Indonesia Entertainment Group (IEG), indicated that SCTV was to be one of the media partners as well as a television network that has full broadcast rights to broadcast the final night live after consecutive four editions of the event.
The first seven contestants were selected through regional competitions held in each organizing province. They were East Java, Bali, West Nusa Tenggara, West Kalimantan, East Kalimantan, North Sulawesi and South Sulawesi. The other 35 contestants were selected by a committee through central auditions held at Graha Mustika Ratu, the organization's headquarters in Jakarta. The selection was supplemented by one delegate per 15 provinces who had been determined their 'Puteri Indonesia Fevorit Daerah', subsequently chosen by viewers through a public vote on the official website. Four winners will have an additional '2' in their regional titles. The organization also provided a two-ticket opportunity for alumni who never reached the top three in previous years, but were eventually transferred for voting.
This edition marked the planned debut of five new provinces which were included in the Eastern Indonesia group due to expansion on 30 June 2022 based on Law No. 16 of 2022. They were the provinces of South Papua, Central Papua, Highland Papua, and Southwest Papua province. This plan was later not implemented because the organization admitted that the administration was not yet complete and the regional government was not ready to send their delegation. This increase in the number of contestants had been planned from the previous two editions, but was not implemented for the same reason. In addition, North Kalimantan did not have a representative this edition.
The representatives of North Maluku and Banten 1, Ratnadila Muhammad Saleh Tuanan Al Faroeq and Giftia Wardani later withdrew due to personal and educational reasons, respectively. For Banten, Latisa Safa Maura was sole representative at this year's edition.
Fitria Helnawati, the representative of West Sumatra, withdrew halfway through the competition due to illness.
