Suharto, the army general who ruled Indonesia with an iron hand from more than three decades (1966-98), died in Jakarta on Jan. 27. Later that day the BBC's NewsHour solicited reactions from various observers, including SEAF Director Donald Emmerson, who recalled Suharto's regime in the context of US-Indonesian relations.
