The upcoming Miss Indonesia beauty contest will have one contestant who will be wearing a Muslim headscarf.
This BBC article sheds more light on that topic.
Many Muslim ladies I know do not wear the headscarf and in Indonesia the form of Islam seems very accepting of other ways.

It didn’t say if she wears the headscarf in the bikini round?
Congratulations to Indonesia for demonstrating tolerance and common sense.
