You can petition her for a fiance visa, then she can legally come to the U.S. where you can get married & she can apply for U.S. Legal Permanent Residency (not citizenship). If you marry in Indonesia, then you can petition her for a "greencard" & she can consular process. Either way, I highly recommend that you hire competent legal representation & not attempt to file on your own. Good luck.
