Ibu Mizue was the chairwoman of the Goodwill International Foundation, which was founded to assist Indonesian students to complete their university studies. She was incredibly dedicated to her cause and has helped hundreds of students, with the support of her husband. Indonesia has lost a wonderful couple, my deepest condolences to their family.

A retired Japanese teacher and his wife were stabbed to death in their home in Indonesia by a disgruntled former domestic worker, police said Friday.
Yasuwo Hara, 69, was stabbed in the chest and his wife, Mizue, 67, in the neck and stomach around 9:00 pm (1400 GMT) Thursday at their home in Ciputat, southern Jakarta, police said.
Police arrested the couple’s recently sacked gardener, 22-year-old Asep, a spokesman said. Another suspect was also believed to have been arrested but this has not been confirmed.
The killer reportedly snuck into the couple’s house through the garage and attacked them as they were eating dinner.
