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 (根本 七保子 Nemoto Naoko?, born February 6, 1940), widely known in Japan as Dewi Fujin (デヴィ夫人, Lady Dewi, Madame Dewi) is a Japanese Businesswoman, socialite, television personality, and philanthropist. She was one of the wives of the first President of Indonesia, Sukarno.

The 19-year-old Naoko Nemoto met the 57-year-old Sukarno at the Ginza hostess bar in Tokyo, near the Imperial Hotel. She was an arts student and entertainer, he was on a state visit to Japan.

Naoko married Sukarno in Indonesia in 1962 and converted to Islam, and Sukarno gave her the Indonesian name Ratna Sari Dewi Soekarno; derived from Javanese-Sanskrit which means "the jewel essence of a goddess". They had one daughter, Kartika (now uses the name "Carina"). Sukarno was overthrown by General Suharto in a 1967 coup, and died three years later.
