Riassunto

This book tells the story of Liem Sioe Liong, a penniless migrant from China who arrived in Java in 1938 and became the wealthiest businessman in Suharto's Indonesia. Through serendipity, good instincts and networking skills, Liem rose from being an obscure, small-scale trader in the 1950s to become an important pillar of support for Suharto, who gained power amid murky circumstances and replaced Sukamo as Indonesia's president in the mid-1960s.
