Historic victory for Indonesia in the International Arena
For Indonesia itself, this is the first time in history that a representative from Indonesia won first place in an international pageant contest. The Miss Supranational contest itself has been running since 2008 until now.
From the start of this Miss Beauty event, Harashta Haifa Zahra’s figure already looked outstanding and had potential compared to the other participants. He even became one of the finalists for Supertalent 2024. One of his performances impressed the jury by playing the harp, singing the song Bubuy Bulan and dancing typical dances from Java and Bali.
The Journey and Struggle of Harashta Haifa Zahra
Harashta Haifa Zahra previously won the title in Indonesia as Putri Indonesia 2024 representing the West Java region. This beautiful girl comes from Bandung, West Java, and studied as an environmental engineering student.
Her journey as Putri Indonesia 2024 itself was not easy, because at that time there was a slanted rumor that she could become Miss Indonesia because of a gift from Ridwan Kami, former Governor of West Java. This is because Ridwan Kamil was wrong one judge at the contest, which resulted in suspicion from several parties. For months he was criticized by internet users because of this.
This is known from Ridwan Kamil’s upload on Instagram after learning about the success of Harashita Haifa Zahra in becoming Miss International 2024.
However, now that she is Miss Supranational 2024, all these accusations and suspicions can be answered by themselves, that Harashita Haifa Zahra is indeed worthy of being a representative from Indonesia. Ridwal Kamil himself also finally commented that Harashita Haifa Zahra deserved it because she was the best, and so did the other judges who thought that way.
Harashita Haifa Zahra’s victory at the Miss Supranational 2024 event is certainly a matter of pride, not only for her and the people of West Java, but also the pride of the Indonesian nation, where she can once again prove her achievements in the international world.
Many parties expressed their appreciation, including Bambang Tirtoyuliono, the official mayor of Bandung where Harashita Haifa Zahra comes from. He expressed his pride and gratitude for this achievement.
