List of Indonesian Billionaires

March 7th, 2008, in Business & Economy, by Patung

The world’s billionaires, and which Indonesians are among them.

Indonesian citizens who made it onto the Forbes’ “The World’s Billionaires” list, out of a total of 1125 people worldwide: [1]

Sukanto Tanoto
Sukanto Tanoto.

Sukanto Tanoto (Chinese name - Chen Jianghe), originally from Medan in North Sumatra, and owner of the holding company PT Raja Garuda Mas International (RGM International), leads the Indonesian rankings, as almost always:

  • 284th richest - Sukanto Tanoto, aged 58, net worth $3.8 billion, lives in Singapore.
  • 605th richest - Michael Hartono, aged 68, net worth of $2.0 billion, lives in Indonesia.
  • 605th richest - R Budi Hartono, aged 67, net worth $2.0 billion, lives in Indonesia.
  • 652nd richest - Martua Sitorus, aged 48, net worth of $1.9 billion, lives in Singapore.
  • 962nd richest - Peter Sondakh, aged 56, net worth of $1.2 billion, lives in Indonesia.

Aburizal Bakrie, who only three months ago was named by Forbes Asia as Indonesia’s richest man, inexplicably didn’t make the cut for this list, and nor did Eka Tjipta Widjaja (Sinar Mas Group), and Putera Sampoerna (Sampoerna Strategic), both of whom were listed as being richer than Martua Sitorus on that previous list.

    Atypical ex-Fujian, ex Canton Chinese economic parasites who flee with their ill-gotten money at the drop of a pribumi hat.
    PKSP and BLBI shall hopefully return their plunder to its’ rightful owners.

    The major difference between Suharto Inc and the Generals is that they reinvested his money into Indonesia. The Chinese fled like bank robbers. Actually that’s exactly what they are.

    7 out of 7 Most Wanted Criminals are Ethnic Chinese
    Eddy Tanzil
    Bambang Sutrisno
    Andrian Kiki Ariawan Now apparently living in Singapore .
    Samadikun Hartono
    Sudjiono Timan: in Singapore.
    Maria Pauline Lumowa: Fled to Singapore before trial.
    Irawan Salim: Canada or Europe

    Don’t bring racial issue, why would you even care? Criminals are criminals regardless their race.
