Her participation in Puteri Indonesia 2009 was controversial Because she was representing the province of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam, a conservative Muslim province, ruled by Sharia law. Past representatives of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam Had always worn a headscarf, but did not Sandioriva. That explained later Sandioriva despite not wearing a headscarf, she still upheld traditional values and Morals - just like the Acehnese heroine she Admired, Cut.
