Yayuk continues to struggle in a faraway land, to ensure that at least her family in their village no longer eat sun-dried rice.
Bravo Younger Sister Yayuk, jiayou, ganbatte kudasai, keep up the spirit, and never give up!
Younger Sister Yayuk's Superiorities: A very high spirit that does not give in at all with poverty or lack of food, even though she has to exchange everything with the happiness of "Mangan ora mangan asal ngumpul" (Javanese for "either we have something to eat or not at all, we gather together."
Dedicated to my late biological mother Lim Siucu, my two adoptive mothers, the late Mrs. H. Pasaribu/br. Panjaitan and Umi Roslina Siregar in Tanjungbalai Asahan, the five Kartinis above (six with Mother Margot, I don't want to keep you hidden), and other Kartinis who are no less extraordinary, wherever you are.
