Tji Srikandi-Goodhart Awarded for the MCSA Quiet Achievers 2022

Uncategorized

The Multicultural Communities Council of South Australia (MCCSA) has awarded some groups of women for their tireless efforts in the community. AS part of International Women’s Day, this award shines a light on some of the quiet achievers who have contributed to their community. For the 2022 awards, nine women have proudly become a recipient of this award, one of them is Tji Srikandi-Goodhart, from the Indonesian Community.

Tji has been an active member of the Australian-Indonesian Association of SA inc. (AIASA) since its inception in 1968, the aim of which is to promote better understanding and goodwill between the Indonesian and Australian people, based on friendship, respect and trust. As President of the AIASA from 2014-to 2016, Tji coordinated the annual Indofest-Adelaide, a major festival involving more than 20 Indonesian community groups.

The AIASA also provides a platform to nurture cohesion among the ethnically, culturally and religiously diverse Indonesian communities in South Australia and aspires to represent them at an inter-governmental soft-diplomacy level.

Throughout her student and early working life, Tji shared her love, skills, and knowledge of the land of her birth with fellow Australians through Indonesian performing arts as a traditional dancer, choreographer, gamelan player and presenter at many events. She also taught Indonesian dancing over the years, including to schoolteachers of Indonesian language and culture, who in turn could teach their students.

This event was held on the 18th of July 2021 at Jeffrey Smart Building, University of South Australia City Campus. The event itself is titled “Cancer Screening Save Life”. Presenting speakers from various cancer experts, this event focuses on the treatment and prevention of cancer for a woman in the early stage. Dr Kencana Dharmapatni, Dr Chandra Kirana, and Dr Juliana Jatnika have contributed and shared their knowledge about preventing and detecting a cancer disease that often happens to women at this event

Other Indonesian communities support this event through many activities such as the “Manos” (Makanan Nostalgia) community; which has provided the guests with their traditional Indonesian cuisine, Mrs Rada Korda rolled out her donations through Balinese massage activity and Mr Ferry Chandra from Adelindo Angklung community who lead the Indonesian national anthem ceremony in the opening session. This event is related. Who also conducted a fundraising session to raise funds for the cancer society and patients.

This is a continuous series of events that would conduct to gain health awareness in women’s society, especially in the Indonesian community. As planned, the next event would be held in May 2022, which would be focused on other health studies.
