Dewi Sukarno (デヴィ・スカルノ, Devi Sukaruno), complete name Ratna Sari Dewi Sukarno (ラトナ・サリ・デヴィ・スカルノ, Ratona Sari Devi Sukaruno, born Naoko Nemoto (æ ¹æœ¬ 七ä¿å, Nemoto Naoko); February 6, 1940 in Tokyo, Empire of Japan), widely known in Japan as Dewi Fujin (デヴィ夫人, Lady Dewi, Madame Dewi), is a Japanese-Indonesian businesswoman, socialite, television personality and philanthropist. She was one of the wives of the first President of Indonesia, Sukarno. Her father was a carpenter, who passed away when she was 16. To make ends meet, Nemoto worked at a famous club named "Copacabana". In 1959, Nemoto, who was 19, met Sukarno, who was 39 years her senior, at the Ginza hostess bar in Tokyo, near the Imperial Hotel. Nemoto was an arts student and entertainer, while the latter was on a state visit to Japan. Naoko married Sukarno in Indonesia in 1962 and converted to Islam. Sukarno gave her the Indonesian name Ratna Sari Dewi Sukarno; derived from Javanese-Sanskrit which means "the jewel essence of a goddess". They had one daughter, Kartika (born March 11, 1967 and is now going by the name "Carina"), who was Sukarano's eighth child. he widowed Dewi Sukarno moved to Europe after Sukarno's ousting and has since lived in different countries, including France, Switzerland, and the United States. As of 2008, she has returned to Japan and lives in Shibuya, Tokyo, where she lives in her memorabilia-filled residence. In 1994 she posed for a book of photographs that was published in her native Japan (well known as "Madame de Syuga"). Some of the images featured her partially naked, and others showed what appeared to be tattoo-like body art. The book, while not distributed in Indonesia, was immediately banned, and many Indonesians felt offended by what was perceived to be a disgrace of Sukarno's name and legacy.
