Suharto was an Indonesian military officer and politician who served as the second and longest-serving president of Indonesia from 1967 to 1998.

His 31-year dictatorship is considered one of the most brutal and corrupt of the 20th century: he was central to the perpetration of mass killings against alleged communists and subsequent persecution of ethnic Chinese, Islamists, irreligious people, and trade unionists.
