Funeral of Adiguna Sutowo (Doc. Paragram)

JAKARTA - Carmanita hurried away with a feeling of sorrow from Soekarno Hatta Airport to the funeral home of the late Adiguna Sutowo in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta, this morning.

Supposedly, Carmanita had to fly to Bali around 12.00 WIB. At 07.30 WIB he arrived at Soetta Airport to undergo a rapid antigen test. He thought the COVID-19 test would take a long time. Turns out only about 30 minutes.

As a childhood friend, this batik designer did not want to lose the chance to see Adiguna's figure for the last time. Therefore, he was willing to take the time to go to Menteng, before finally returning to the airport to fly to Bali this afternoon.

"I immediately ran to Menteng. When I arrived at the funeral home, everyone was shocked to see that I was supposed to have left for Bali. I was really heartbroken to hear the news that he died. My heart will not be calm if I don't hold his head, look directly," said Carmanita to VOI, Sunday, April 18.

In Carmanita's eyes, Adiguna is like family. Because of their long friendship, Carmanita admitted that she couldn't tell the memories with Adiguna that made an impression on her mind.

"It's hard for me to share memories with him. I've been friends for 50 years, you know, from childhood. Our parents are also friends. We've been like family, from childhood to school together in America," he said.

What is clear, Carmanita knows very well that Adiguna is a generous figure. "He is never willing to see people in trouble. Whatever, at all cost he will always encourage people. His heart is beautiful. Very kind person," he continued.

Before he died, Adiguna was treated for some time at the Pertamina Central Hospital. Carmanita said that she was annoyed by the state of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused the hospital to issue a rule not to allow patients to visit other than their close relatives.

"He does have a pulmonary infection. His heart has also been placed in a ring. During his time in ICU, I couldn't visit him. After returning from Bali, I will definitely visit his family," said Carmanita.
