Now it has earned him tens of millions of votes. His rivals have urged Indonesians to wait for official results, but the outcome may be inescapable. Mr Prabowo has claimed victory in Indonesia’s presidential election, held on February 14th.

(Official results will not be published until March 20th.) The man who seems likely to lead the world’s third-biggest democracy is dancing around a troubling past—one that few young Indonesians either know or care about.
