About
Dead at 86
Suharto He had been in poor health for years after suffering several strokes and other ailments. He was rushed to the hospital Jan. 4 with anemia and low blood pressure.
Suharto surprized his doctors, and the nation, last week by overcoming a blood infection and making what one physician called a miraculous recovery. But his health suddenly took a turn for the worse again, and by Sunday morning, he had suffered multiple organ failure for a second time
As Suharto drifted in and out of consciousness, his family gave doctors permission to take him off life support whenever they saw fit.
Declaring a week of mourning, President Susilo Bambang Yudhyono asked all Indonesians to "pay the highest respect to one of the best sons of the nation."
"I'm asking all Indonesian to pray for him, for his dedication and service to the country, and to human beings. We also pray for the family to be strong, and look ahead for better future," said the president, a former army general.

Pelanggaran HAM, Korupsi dan lanin sebagainya juga tidak bisa dipungkiri menjadi noda hitam masa pemerintahannya. Tapi jika tidak ada pengadilan atas namanya bagaimana kita mencap salah tidaknya Soeharto secara hukum. Paling berhenti sekedar wacana, diskursus dan obrolan warung kopi.
Soal memaafkan...adalah masalah hati dan keiklasan, masalah sosial kemasyarakatan. Tapi pengadilan harus ditegakkan demi hukum. BTW sekarang Soeharto sudah tiada, tanpa melalui proses pengadilan yang mengakhiri...bagaimana kita menilai dia ? Tentu hanya berdasar pengetahuan kita yang terbatas...
I wonder...
