If she spends any time at all in the US, she can get a name change at the local county courthouse to add a last name for less than $500. Probably less than $250, depending on the State.

It's not uniquely Indonesian at all. People from the Indian state of Mizoram--a Christian, non-Indic language anomaly next to Myanmar--do not have last names either.
