Indonesians Prefer Suharto to Yudhoyono: Poll
Arientha Primanita | May 16, 2011
First Paragraph of the Jakarta Globe Story:
The common refrain of “things were better under Suharto” has been given credence in a new survey that shows the former strongman’s rule is widely preferred to the current civilian administration of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
The results of the poll, released on Sunday by Indo Barometer, showed that 40.9 percent of the 1,200 people surveyed believed that conditions were better under Suharto’s New Order regime, while only 22.8 percent believed otherwise.
