Fortunately, her husband, Joyodiningrat aka Regency Chief of Rembang, understood Kartini’s aims! He allowed her to establish a school for women in the east porch of the Rembang Regency Office complex, aka Gedung Pramuka.
Kartini passed away a few days after gave birth to her only son, on 1904. Even so, after her death, a lot of people still get inspired by her! Example: the Van Deventer family established the R.A. Kartini Foundation which built schools for women, ‘Kartini’s Schools’ in Semarang in 1912, followed by other women’s schools in Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Malang, Madiun, Cirebon and other areas.
Also, don’t forget her published super amazing book “Habis Gelap Terbitlah Terang” that contained her collected letters to her friends in Europe about her thoughts, ideas, concern, and about society at her time.
