THE NOURA VAN KEMMERS

Johans Alois

Men of German blood who had worked in one of the largest plantation companies in Batavia that can be said to be no longer young. She is fifteen years younger than Opa Willy. His stature was big, blond and his face was quite fierce. Many people call it Johans Alois, as the name implies. He has lived in Batavia for a long time. Merantau from a young age and devoted himself as an officer at Herverman.

People know him as a hard and temperament person. I like to get drunk and spend time in entertainment. His track record at Herverman is pretty sneaky. Clever lick superiors for their own sake, even not infrequently get rid of coworkers in order to achieve positions and high positions. The greed and greed of Johans Alois was seen when he had several times embezzled funds in Herverman until finally when the restructuring of VOC plantation companies, including Herverman, his crime was revealed. Johans Alois was sacked, thrown in jail and all his assets confiscated by the Dutch government at the time.

Johans Alois was married to a beautiful Dutch woman and lived in a magnificent house in the Menteng area. Although not blessed with children, his married life went harmoniously until finally when he was detained in prison for corruption, the wife left him and fell into the arms of a tobacco businessman in Semarang. The businessman who is also a Dutch national brought the Wife to live in his residence in Semarang.

Since then Johans Alois has become increasingly violent. After leaving prison, he was determined to avenge them one by one to those who had thrown him into prison. Including Opa Willy who he considered to have complained of embezzlement of funds that he did to the leadership.

He was determined to teach Opa Willly a lesson by reclaiming the rubber plantation land the old man had acquired as a gift from Herverman.

Johans Alois has been determined to collect back his lost wealth. He must become rich and re-powerful. After becoming rich and powerful, the goal is only one, which is to go to Semarang to look for the existence of women who had been his wife and teach a lesson to rich men who have made his wife turn away.

All preparations were done by Johans Alois neatly. Armed with a little savings, he hired several village champions to be made as Centeng (personal guard). Centengs were the ones who accompanied him to carry out acts of terror and extortion.

"Which is our main target, sir?" ask a centeng one day.

"The rubber plantation in Tjibinung belongs to William Van Kemmers. That old man who put me in jail. Because he managed to influence Lord Dekker to take my fortune. He should be taught a lesson soon. The plantation land he owned was the result of licking on Mr. Dekker. I have to take that land."

"Now the land was passed down to the child only wayangnya, while the Old Man Bangka was back to the Netherland. We have to bully the Old Bangka's heir to give up his land immediately. You know, that plantation land used to be mine. And then taken back by the state. I was thrown in jail and underwent a major restructuring, and some of Herverman's assets were distributed to loyal workers, including the Old Bangka,"

"After the estate I took over, I would bully again some other former Herverman workers who also got their share of Herverman after disbanding, like Daniel and Albertus who each get farmland in Tjisaroea (Cisarua). I'm sure, those two people also conspired with Old Bangka to get rid of me."

"Master don't worry. We will help Mister" said a Centeng named Samsudin.

So almost every day, Johans Alois and his temple always come to the plantation. Their arrival was first suspected by Sudarman. Sudarman secretly watched from outside the plantation, how the men of Johans Alois observed the movements of Mr. Adrianus.

Adrian again threatened to report the actions of Johans Alois to the authorities. And before that happened, Johans Alois had prepared a more sinister plan.

Seriate.

Remarks :

That said, the Menteng area has been an elite settlement since the Dutch colonial era.

Menteng area located in the south of Batavia City, sometimes also referred to as Untung Java, because it is located in the north of Kampung Melayu.

Before becoming an elite settlement as it is known today, Menteng was a lesser known area, even inhabited by wild animals.

Originally this area is a forest that is overgrown with Menteng trees (beccaurea racemosa). The fruit tree was eventually linked by the community to call the name of this location.

However, since the location was opened to the public and the development of Batavia City in 1810, the place began to be crowded. Then around 1912, Governor General Willem Herman Daendels made this place as housing for Dutch East Indies government employees.

Menteng was the first residential villa in Batavia, developed between 1910 and 1918. The designer is a team of architects led by PAJ Mooijen, a Dutch architect who is a member of the development team formed by the Batavia city government.

In its development, Menteng is divided into several other names. So there are small villages in it such as Menteng Atas, Menteng Dalam, and Menteng Pulo.
