Indonesia: The Year of Living Dangerously (Suharto overthrown)

Indonesia: The Year of Living Dangerously (Suharto overthrown)
23 minutes, 1998
Ref: 168

Today, Indonesia's economy has collapsed, the country is bankrupt and the people are rioting. The economic crisis has cracked Indonesian politics wide open, and exposed the corruption inside. Suharto is losing control and can no longer rely on his charisma to keep his people content.
