Rosalina "Ro" Stokdijk-Chasler, was born into a Jewish family in Rotterdam in 1908. In 1938, she moved to London with her second husband, Johannes Arnoldus Stokdijk, a merchant born in Rotterdam. In London she became the secretary to Hubertus Johannes "Huib" van Mook, the Lieutenant Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1942 to 1948, and followed him to the Dutch East-Indies. Van Mook was a key figure in Dutch colonial administration, advocating for a self-governing Indonesia under Dutch rule. As his secretary, Stokdijk was at the center of political negotiations during a tumultuous era.
Her time in the Dutch East Indies was further complicated by a personal relationship with Van Mook.
The recently published book "Saluut Batavia," which tells the stories of female KNIL soldiers and Van Mook's biography, "H.J. Van Mook 1894-1965 een vrij en gelukkig Indonesie", offer context to Stokdijk's experiences during the Indonesian National Revolution. Serving alongside Van Mook, she gained a unique perspective on the social and political upheaval in the region.
After her time in the Dutch East Indies Rosalina and het husband Johannes moved to Cairo (Egypt), where they lived a couple of years before returning to the Netherlands in 1955, settling in Rotterdam, unaware of the fate that had befallen her family.
