KARTINI UPDATES

For whom who are not knowing who is Kartini is, let me quote the definision from wikipedia.

"Raden Ajeng (Adjeng) Kartini was a prominent Javanese and an Indonesian national heroine. Kartini is known as a pioneer in the area of women's rights for native Indonesians".
(see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kartini for more info)

Reading these piece of information from the Wikipedia, suddenly I felt so ashamed for myself. Look at Kartini, she could only study until 12 years old, she has lots of restriction to develop herself, her father and the social condition prevailing her to continue her dream. As compare with me, I was born in a middle class family. My parents supported my study. Even I don't have a high dream, there is always a possibility that I could achieve what I want. But I was cheased by my dream.

What Kartini will become if she has my 23 years formal education, including all the English course and other courses that I had.
What will Kartini do when she has the ability to write a blog and have instant reply as soon as possible.
What will Kartini think if she could easily get a divorce paper as soon as you have good lawyer?
and another what will,....what will.....

In this era when woman could sounds their independence, their passion and effort. Women should also think about other women problem. Passionately aware what they could do to improve either education or economic for other women. But what I do now are only contribute how to talk to female celebrities married, how lack knowledge of other female co-worker, or gossiping thing that really not important. What an ashame conduct. Don't you think so?

What did I do to make Indonesian women have an equally chances, benefits, contribution in their life. Why is my heart not moving to hear a lot of woman strugling to find their life free from economic or social burden.

I get to have an action. So starting now I am making an action. I let you know soon what my action is.
