National Education Day is celebrated every year on May 2, which is the birthday of Ki Hajar Dewantara as a sign of the struggle for his services. With his fight, the education world in Indonesia can be like this now. Formerly at the time was the Dutch colonial era, education for indigenous people is not easy. Everything they need to fight.

Ki Hajar Dewantara, or who has the original name Raden Mas Soewardi has even had time to dispose of the Dutch colonial criticism from his writings, entitled Was Nederlander Eens Als Ik (If I'm a Dutch). Writings he criticized the celebration of 100 years of trouble free Holland from French colonial rule in November 1913. The celebration was celebrated in colonial Indonesia, and to withdraw money from the people of its colonies to finance the celebration party. After his disposal, he later founded the Student Park, which became the forerunner of education in Indonesia.In the present, education is not as difficult as the days of old. Education can be enjoyed by almost all walks of life. Although there are also some people think that education is something that expensive. Once the importance of education for all elements of society for the advancement of the nation, even the religion of Islam also teaches the importance of studying, from birth to grave. In any system of government, the budget for education is huge, in accordance with the mandate of the law. Although the implementation is either appropriate or not. Clearly, education is a strong foundation for a nation.Education has a meaning and a very broad sense. Komponens-component in education should be integrated with each other to build education. Eg formal education in schools, teachers are not there as educators, students, infrastructure and so on. The words of the father of the national education remains the most famous is "sung tulada ngarso ing, ing middle Mangun intention, tut wuri handayani". In front of (teacher) gives an example, in the middle (the teacher) to give guidance, and on the back (the teacher) to give a boost.

Raden Ajeng Kartini

 

 

 

Raden Ajeng Kartini (1879-1904) is credited with starting the move for women's emancipation in Java, an island then controlled by Holland as part of the Netherlands Indies (now Indonesia). Born to the aristocracy, Kartini was privileged to be able to attend Dutch colonial schools, but was forced to quit at an early age due to Islamic law at the time. At the age of 24, she was married to a man twice her age who already had three wives. Kartini wrote letters to her friends in Holland protesting the treatment of women in Java, the practice of polygamy, and of the Dutch suppression of the island's native population. Decades later, the Indonesian state constitution promised gender equality to all its citizens, and Kartini Day continues to be celebrated on April 21 to commemorate Kartini's contribution to women's rights.

Kartini was born on April 21, 1879, in Mayong village near of Jepara, a town located in the center of the island of Java. She was born into the Javanese priyayi, or aristocracy; her father was Jepara mayor Raden Mas Adipati Ario Sosroningrat. Kartini was one of 12 children born to Raden's several wives.

Educated at Dutch Schools

As a child, Kartini was very active, playing and climbing trees. She earned the nickname "little bird" because of her constant flitting around. A man of some modern attitudes, her father allowed her to attend Dutch elementary school along with her brothers. The Dutch had colonized Java and established schools open only to Europeans and to sons of wealthy Javanese. Due to the advantages of her birth and her intellectual inclination, Kartini became one of the first native women allowed to learn to read and write in Dutch.
Despite her father's permission to allow her a primary education, by Islamic custom and a Javanese tradition known as pingit, all girls, including Kartini, were forced to leave school at age 12 and stay home to learn homemaking skills. At this point, Kartini would have to wait for a man to ask for her hand in marriage. Even her status among the upper class could not save her from this tradition of discrimination against women; marriage was expected of her. For Kartini, the only escape from this traditional mode of life was to become an independent woman.
