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.
EAST Timor holds a special place in the military career of Lt. Gen. (ret.) Prabowo Subianto. Important phases in his career path as a soldier happened during that period. Since his graduation from the Military Academy in 1974, Prabowo was posted a number of times when that former Indonesian province began its separatist movement.
Prabowo led units of the Special Forces (Kopassus) since he held the rank of second-lieutenant in East Timor, in an attempt to beat the Timorese guerrilla movement. They had a single target: to douse the armed opposition against the Indonesian authorities. They succeeded, up to a point. In 1978, Prabowo's troops shot and killed Fretilin (the major East Timor rebel group) leader and prime minister in exile, Nicolaus Labato.
THE abduction of pro-democracy activists in 1998 caused a rift between military officers Fachrul Razi and Syamsu Djalal.

But Fachrul Razi, who at that time was the Armed Forces (ABRI) chief of general staff with the rank of lieutenant-general, prevented him from doing so.
"The initial evidence that Prabowo was the brains behind the abductions was very strong," said Syamsu Djalal in an interview last week. Fachrul and Syamsu are presently aligned with the supporters of presidential candidate Joko Widodo.
