Indonesia Presumed President-Elect Prabowo Subianto’s Foreign Policy
(thediplomat.com)
Don't know about his foreign policy, but domestically he's likely to be a disaster.
“Indonesia is not ready for democracy,” he told me in those [2001] meetings. The country, he said, needs “a benign authoritarian regime.”
Prabowo expressed support for army rule. He praised a recent coup in Pakistan and mused about making a similar move in Indonesia. “Do I have the guts?” he asked rhetorically. “Am I ready to be called a fascist dictator?”
