To commemorate the services of national heroes, every 10th of November is designated as Indonesian Heroes' Day. This is done to appreciate the sacrifices of Indonesian heroes who tirelessly fought for independence from the hands of colonizers.

The title of National Hero is the highest honor given in Indonesia. This title is posthumously awarded by the Indonesian Government as recognition of heroic actions that are considered exemplary and inspiring to the entire society, or as a great service to the nation and state. Recognizing the names of national heroes is very important for us so that their contributions are not forgotten. As beneficiaries of independence who did not participate in the struggle to regain independence from colonizers, it is only right that we know the names of the heroes and their history in fighting for Indonesia.

Raden Ajeng Kartini RA Kartini is a woman of noble descent (the daughter of the Regent of Jepara) who fought for the rights of education and knowledge for native women. Because at that time, women were only allowed to go to school until the age of 12. Every girl had to be secluded and did not have the freedom to learn and seek knowledge. This is what RA Kartini fought for, and we still feel the effects of her contributions until now.
