His name is I Ketut Kartika, however his friends and relatives known him better as Seririt, after the name of the village where he was born. Just like any other person who lived in a small village, Kartika and family have lived through hard times.

Thanks to his mother's hard work, Ketut Kartika was able to graduate from senior high school.
