Honorable the headmaster of SD/SMP/SMA…

Honorable my teachers

Dear my friends…


Brothers and Sisters…

First of all, let’s pray and thank unto Allah SWT, for His gift and His guidance are given for us until we can do our obligation as moslem.


Secondly, let’s pray for our prophet Muhammad SAW, because of him, we can get the moslem to respect another person, asspecially to the parents.


Thirdly, I will not forget to say thank you very much for my friend as support me speaking here. Standing in front of you all, I would like to present my speech under the title “Kartini Day and Women’s Emancipation”.


Brothers and Sisters…

We all know… every year, on 21st April (on the twenty first of April), Indonesian people always celebrate Kartini Day. This celebration is to appreciate the contribution of R.A.Kartini in improving the life of Indonesian women. Kartini Day also reminds us that Indonesian women should get equality in education, achievement and social life. Kartini has inspired us in supporting the wowen’s emancipation.


Brothers and Sisters…

In the past, Indonesian women had a very low social status. They could not attend school to get education. Indonesian women were not able to reach good position in social life. They did not have the same rights as men obtained.

This condition made R.A. Kartini concerned. She tried to change it. She wanted Indonesian women to have higher education and better social status. Kartini expressed her ideas and opinion in letters and then sent them to her close friend, Rosa Abendanon. Kartini’s letters were mainly about her views on the condition of native Indonesian women. Another way of Kartini’s struggle was she established free school for women. She thought that to improve the women’s life, they might have a higher education.


My teachers…

My friends…

The letters from RA Kartini to Rosa Abendanon were compiled and published into a book entitled : “Door Duisternis tot Licht” or known as “Out of Dark Comes Light”. In Indonesian, we call it as Habis Gelap Terbitlah Terang.

Kartini’s letters indicated that she struggled to change the low status of women. She inspired Indonesian women to get education and a better life. In other words, she supported women’s emancipation. That is why, to appreciate Kartini’s ideas for the women’s movement, in 1964, President Sukarno declared Kartini's birth date, 21stApril, as 'Kartini Day' - an Indonesian National Holiday which we celebrate it each year until now.


Brothers and Sisters…

We always celebrate Kartini Day every year. The question is, what should we do in celebrating it?

In my opinion, celebrating Kartini Day does not only mean we must wear traditional clothes. The most important thing is we are reminded about her struggle against discrimination towards women. Kartini Day also means that we cannot take for granted the idea of men and women equality. There are, however, natural differences between women and men. Kartini’s ideas should become the inspiration for women to get equal rights as men obtained, in education, achievement and social status.

Nowdays, we can find many successful women in our country. There are many Indonesian women who have amazing achievements in the field of business, economics, education, government officials, and other professions. We can also find Indonesian women who have become regency chiefs, governors, ministers, even president of Indonesia. It indicates that Indonesian women have reached better social status and they have participated in women’s emancipation.


My teachers…

Brothers, Sisters and all the Audiences…

I think that’s all my speech. I hope it will be useful for us, and I apologize if there are mistakes in my speech.

Finally, I would like to say: “Happy Kartini Day…! Long Live Indonesia, Long Live Indonesian Women…!!”

Hopefully Indonesian women will always be successful in education, achievement and social life.

Thank your very much for your attention.

Wassalamu’alaikum Wr. Wb.
