Abstract
Indonesia had gone through major upheavals in the late 1990s following the Asian currency crisis. The departure of General Suharto, amid a deepening financial, economic and social crisis marked a turning point. Suharto's protege and vice-president, BJ Habibie, took over the presidency from Suharto until October 1999, when Abdurrahman Wahid, a moderate Islamic cleric, was elected to the office. The controversial Wahid was impeached and replaced by his vice-president, Megawati Sukarnoputri, in July 2001. While Megawati seemed to be consolidating her power, and the prospects for the economy had improved significantly since the ousting of Wahid, various concerns remained to be addressed: political instability, corruption and foreign debt. Meanwhile, in view of the threats to secede by some territories, and the Bali bombing, some observers were even doubtful whether Indonesia, in its existing form, could survive. The case illustrates the linkages between social, political and economic policies in developing economies.
