SCMP - Defiant Suharto warns of plot

scmp.com

<< Challenges to President Suharto's 32-year rule mounted yesterday as the Indonesian leader warned of a plot to destroy the country's economy and send its currency crashing. >>

<< The leader of the 28-million-strong Muhammadiyah moderate Islamic movement, Amien Rais, earlier said the entire Government needed to be changed if the country was to forge on from the crisis.

"Ideally, there should be a complete break with the past," he told the Jakarta Post. "But if President Suharto suddenly steps down and his cronies take over and apply the old management of the state, we may not be able to develop further."

Mr Rais did not like the idea of revolution, but said peaceful change required a public prepared to wait and a government prepared to be flexible, conditions not apparent in Indonesia. >>

Getting ugly.

John
