Kartini is our national heroine and a great lady with the bright idea. She was born in 1879 April 21 in Mayong, Jepara. Her father was Rama Sosroningrata Wedana (assistant of head of regency) in Mayong. Her mother, Ma Ngasirah was a girl from Teluk Awur village in Jepara as the daughter of a noble family. She felt lucky because she got more than the ordinary people got. She got better education than other children. In November 12, 1903 she married Adipati Djoyodiningrat, the head of Rembang regency. According to Javanese tradition, Kartini had to follow her husband. Then she moved to Rembang.
