tutut

Tutut is a nickname commonly used in Indonesia to refer to Siti Hardiyanti Suharto, the eldest daughter of former President Suharto. The name appears in Indonesian media as a familiar shorthand for her and is widely recognized in discussions of Suharto-era politics and business networks. In public life, Tutut Suharto has been described as a businesswoman and public figure who held leadership roles in various companies and engaged in political life through appointments and influence during the late 20th century. Her prominence grew during the New Order period, when members of Suharto's family were active in business and in state-linked governance structures. After the political changes that began in the late 1990s, she remained a public figure with continued involvement in business and civic affairs, though with less direct political leadership. The term tends to be used primarily within Indonesian-language reporting and biographies, and outside Indonesia it largely appears in discussions of Indonesian political history or in coverage of Suharto's family. The name's usage reflects a broader phenomenon of informal, familiarly used epithets employed for members of the president's family in Indonesia.
