Mispronouncing Pancasila, Kalista Iskandar Named One of the Ambassadors of MPR RI

Kapanlagi.com - Kalista Iskandar is one of the finalists of Puteri Indonesia 2020 who has caught public attention. She became the center of attention after mispronouncing a sila in Pancasila during the night of the Puteri Indonesia 2020 selection.

After the incident, this woman from West Sumatra admitted that she will not give up. She will remain determined and proud of herself for making it to the grand final night of Puteri Indonesia 2020.

Previously, there was news that the West Sumatra Provincial Government apparently did not recognize Kalista as a representative of West Sumatra. The West Sumatra Provincial Government even claimed to be unaware of the process of appointing her to represent the region.

"The West Sumatra Provincial Government has never provided recommendations or permits to individuals or institutions to represent West Sumatra in the Miss Indonesia (PPI) 2020 event," said Jasman Rizal, Head of the West Sumatra Provincial Government's Public Relations Bureau, as quoted by Kumparan.
