Soekarno or known as Bung Karno (Bung is an affectionate title used to address colleagues, popular in early 1900s) was forced from power by one of his generals, Suharto, who formally became President in March 1967.

Soekarno is a son of a Javanese schoolteacher guy and Balinese woman. Sukarno was born in Surabaya, East Java in the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). He was a rare breed even among the colony's small educated elite, Sukarno was fluent in several languages, such as Dutch, German, English and French and his native Javanese. He once remarked that when he was studying in Surabaya, he often sat behind the screen in movie theaters reading the Dutch subtitles in reverse because he could not afford the regular front seating's price :).
