Decisive Moments Indonesia's Long Road to Democracy
Without Habibie, I am not sure there would be the 1999 General Election, and whether the democratization history in Indonesia would blossom like today.
(William Liddle, 2004)
After strongmen Sukarno and Suharto ruled the country for 53 years, a political miracle rapidly evolved. Habibie repealed many unpopular edicts of his
predecessor, provided for rule of law and respect for human rights, and initiated a genuine democratic process for choosing a parliament and a president. A milestone for us, this election also was a significant step forward for democracy worldwide. The people of Indonesia are providing a dramatic example of peaceful political change, and firmly negating the claim that Muslim societies are anti-democratic. (Jimmy Carter, IHT, July 15, 2004)
