Kartini Day

It seems to me that Kartini Day, a day remembering Kartini's struggles for emancipation is now reduced to a day of wearing Kebaya, a traditional dress.

It's a good thing that Kartini was a Javanese aristocrat who wore a kebaya, had she been a Balinese peasant, we might've been celebrating it topless.
