– Soekarno, the proclaimer of Indonesian Independence, unexpectedly would have blood descendants from countries that once colonized Indonesia.
Yes, that's right, Soekarno has descendants from the colonial countries of Indonesia, namely Japan and the Netherlands.
It all started with Soekarno's marriage to a woman from Japan, named Naoko Nemoto aka Ratna Sari Dewi. From his marriage to Naoko Nemoto, Bung Karno had a daughter named Karina Kartika Sari Dewi.
"From this marriage, a daughter was born in Tokyo on March 11 1967. Soekarno gave her the name Kartika Sari Dewi," said the World History YouTube channel, quoted by Hops.ID on Tuesday, May 14 2024. Then Bung Karno's only daughter, Naoko Nemoto, married a man from the Netherlands.
Her marriage to a man from the Netherlands named Frits Frederik Seegers took place on December 11 2005 at the Interconinental Amstel Hotel, Amsterdam.
Frits, who at that time married Kartika, worked as the President of Citibank Europe from the Land of Windmills.
Approximately one year after his marriage, a son was born on August 24 2006. This boy was born to Frits and Kartika, who we later knew as Frederik Kiran Soekarno Seegers.
He is the only grandson of Soekarno who has mixed Indonesian-Japanese-Dutch blood. Even though Kiran was born and raised abroad, it seems that Kartika always introduces him to various things about Indonesia. If you count from when he started, he is now 17 years old and will have his birthday in a few months.
So, what is the latest news about Bung Karno's only grandson, who is of Japanese-Dutch blood?
Reporting from the Instagram account @kartikasoekarnofoundation, it was observed that Kiran was quite active in participating in various activities of his mother.
This handsome man is often seen taking photos with his mother at various important moments.
On the other hand, it seems that he is also currently undergoing upper secondary education, which he may have done in England.
The reason is that in one of the uploads, he was seen wearing a school uniform and it was written that he was at Sevenoaks School. As is known, Sevenoaks School is one of the schools in Sevenoaks, Kent, England.***
