JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto's decision to give the title of National Hero to Suharto and Sarwo Edhie Wibowo sparked a wave of criticism that called this decision a betrayal of the ideals of the 1998 Reformation.

The question is, will this title change the historical narrative by force, where all past Suharto's actions were diverted for the sake of the nation and stability? Will it remove allegations of corruption and human rights violations linked to Suharto?
