Suharto was forced to resign in 1998 due to a combination of economic crisis, widespread public discontent, and political unrest. The Asian financial crisis severely impacted Indonesia's economy, leading to soaring inflation and unemployment, which fueled protests against his authoritarian regime. Massive demonstrations and a loss of support from the military and political elites ultimately compelled him to step down after 31 years in power. His resignation marked the beginning of a democratic transition in Indonesia.
