General Suharto assumes full executive authority in Indonesia on February 22, 1967, ending President Sukarno's 22-year communist leaning rule.
He went ahead to establish a strict "New Order" regime, reversing communist policies, restoring economic stability, and ruling for 31 years as a military-backed dictator. His tenure was marked by corruption and severe human rights abuses, with dead toll estimates ranging from 500,000 to over a million. He was forced to resign in 1998.
