Jakarta - Ex-dictator Suharto has died in hospital of multiple organ failure at 86. He leaves a mixed legacy: He presided over the modernisation of Indonesia but at the cost of massive corruption, nepotism and widespread human-rights abuses.

Guilty of gross human rights abuses - supported, of course, by the West - in East Timor, and other parts of Indonesia. An estimate of between 300,000 and 2 million people killed by his regime.
So, good riddance.
