Jakarta - Indonesia's central bank announced yesterday that the face of the nation's founding father, Sukarno, would appear on a new 100,000 rupiah note.
A 50,000-rupiah note bearing the face of Gen Suharto, the former president who ousted Sukarno in 1967, meanwhile is to be withdrawn. President Suharto was forced to resign in disgrace last year amid mass unrest and economic collapse.
