Charlotte Salawati Mrs Charlotte Salawati, elected in Greater Djakarta, West Java, was born in Tariang Baru on the island of Sangihe, North Celebes, on 20 March 1909. Her home address is Djalan Kelapa No 4, Makassar, and her Djakarta address is Matraman Raya, No 51. She received her education at the normal school. In 1926 she was appointed a teacher to the Tamako Kopschool on Sangihe Island, and 3 years later, to the Makassar People's School. In 1928 she was separated from church affiliation because of her activities as chairman of the Christian Youth Association. She had attacked especially the conduct of the Dutch Christian clergy, causing the exile from Sangihe of one of them, a Mr Steller. Finally, in 1932, she was labeled by the government of the Netherlands Indies as "dangerous to the general order," and was forbidden to teach. In 1945, however, she became a teacher in the national school founded by Dr. Ratulangi. That school was closed 2 years later by the NICA (Netherlands Indies Civil Administration) government. On its reopening, teachers were required to complete various government forms, and, since Mrs Salawati knew that this would remind the Dutch of her previous offense, she relinquished her teaching career. 48
