"Now Becomes a 4-Star General, Here's the Moment Prabowo Was Dismissed from the Indonesian National Army in 1998"

Dream - The TNI-Polri Leadership Meeting on Wednesday, February 28, 2024, became a special day for Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto. The retired lieutenant general now carries the 4-star TNI badge on his shoulder. Prabowo becomes a full general after receiving the special promotion of Honorary TNI General. Prabowo's promotion is in accordance with Presidential Decree Number 13/TNI/Year 2024 dated February 21, 2024, regarding the special award of the honorary TNI general rank.

President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), who attended the event, directly pinned a 4-star on Prabowo's shoulder. However, history records that the former Commander of Kopassus was removed from the Indonesian National Armed Forces in May 1998. The moment of Prabowo's removal went viral again after being shared by the TikTok account @arsip_sejarah. Prabowo, wearing a uniform, can be seen standing face to face with Wiranto, who was serving as the Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces at that time.

The moment was also witnessed by the elite ranks of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and the Indonesian National Police (Polri). Interestingly, many have highlighted how Prabowo showed a smile after shaking hands with Wiranto.

A number of guests from the ranks of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and the Indonesian National Police (Polri) were seen approaching Prabowo to shake hands and express their support after the event ended. Although his career in the TNI has ended, the former husband of Titiek Soeharto still managed to smile while receiving support from his colleagues. Prabowo also paid tribute to several military figures who approached him while continuing to smile.

Prabowo was dismissed from the Indonesian National Armed Forces with the final rank of Lieutenant General with three stars, serving as the Commander of the Army Strategic Command. In the midst of the turmoil in May 1998, Prabowo requested the Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces, Wiranto, to allow him to mobilize his reserve forces from outside Jakarta to help quell the riots. Prabowo's request was denied. However, he is suspected of still sending his reserve forces to Jakarta. As a result, President BJ Habibie ordered Wiranto to remove Prabowo from his position as the Commander of the Army Strategic Command.

Father Didit Hediprasetyo began his military career as a Second Lieutenant after graduating from Akmil Magelang. Throughout his military career, Prabowo undertook various important tasks. Some of them were involved in Operation Nanggala and Operation Saroja in East Timor. In 1965, Prabowo served as the Commander of Kopassus with the rank of Major General.

Not long after that, he was appointed as the Commander of the Strategic Reserve Command of the Army (Kostrad) in 1967. However, his career in the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) ended when he was dismissed in 1998. At that time, the Officer Honor Council, chaired by General Subagyo Hadi Siswoyo and consisting of six lieutenant generals, namely Fachrul Razi (vice chairman), Djamari Chaniago (secretary), Arie J. Kumaat, Agum Gumelar, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, and Yusuf Kartanegara, dismissed him from the military.
