Is Indonesia the US ally?

Indonesia was a staunch US ally in the 1950's until the US betrayed Indonesia by labeling the country as communist. In 1965 the US supported a military coup d'etat to take over the country. In the next 33 year Indonesia was ruled by a military strongman Suharto which brought Indonesia to become a closed ally of the US again. In 1998 Suharto was toppled by 5 million students who marched into the capital Jakarta and demanded Suharto to step down. Since then the relationship between the US and Indonesia have experienced low and high points.


Why is Suharto remembered?

Suharto is remembered as Indonesia's second president, serving from 1967 to 1998, during which he implemented significant economic reforms that led to rapid growth and development in the country. However, his regime is also notorious for its authoritarian rule, human rights abuses, and corruption. The violent anti-Communist purge in the 1960s and the suppression of political dissent are critical aspects of his legacy. Despite his mixed legacy, he remains a pivotal figure in Indonesia's modern history.
