Sukarno
Sukarno (sōkärˈnō)
[key], 1901–70, Indonesian statesman, first president of Indonesia. A
leader of the radical nationalist movement founded in 1927, he was jailed and
exiled by the Dutch at various times in the 1930s. During World War II, Sukarno
cooperated with the Japanese when Indonesia was occupied by them,
while still continuing his agitation for Indonesian independence. After the war
he and Mohammad Hatta played a crucial part in the establishment (Aug., 1945)
of the Republic
of Indonesia. In the
1950s, Sukarno attempted to consolidate his multi-island nation. He established
(1956) a "guided democracy," with a cabinet that represented all
political parties. Regional and factional problems, however, led him, in July,
1959, to dissolve the constituent assembly and assume full dictatorial powers.
In 1962, Sukarno ordered sporadic raids on Dutch New Guinea, intensifying a
conflict that resulted in UN intervention; his action, however, brought Dutch
New Guinea under Indonesian administration in May, 1963. Sukarno, who
proclaimed himself president for life in 1963, increased his country's ties to
Communist China
in the late 1950s and 60s and admitted increasing numbers of Communists and
pro-Communists to his government. In 1963 he announced his opposition to the
British-sponsored Federation of Malaysia
and withdrew (1965) Indonesia
from the United Nations after Malaysia
took its seat on the Security Council. An attempted Communist coup late in 1965
led to a military takeover in Indonesia
by General Suharto, who replaced Sukarno as effective ruler of Indonesia. In
1966, Sukarno was stripped of his title of president for life. He remained
under house arrest until his death. Megawati Sukarnoputri is his daughter.

and later prime minister. Hatta died in 1980.
