Prabowo's American Spin Doctors
Tuesday, July 1, 2014
RON Mueller first met Prabowo Subianto in 1978, but only in the past seven years have the two men become close. These days Prabowo always invites him to his mansion in Hambalang Hill, Bogor, to celebrate the New Year. In the run-up to the April legislative elections, Mueller met Prabowo almost every week. "I eat there and attend meetings not political consultations, just the usual discussions," Mueller told Tempo in late May.
Mueller, 60, is a US citizen with parents of Dutch descent, but he was born in Pekanbaru, Riau, and he said he had "Indonesian blood in his veins" because one of his ancestors was Sundanese. At the age of five, his family moved to the States. After living there for 19 years, Mueller returned to Indonesia in 1973.
