How did suharto come to power in indonesia?

Suharto came to power in Indonesia by ousting the former President through a coup. He did this through a violent purge of communists and then mobilized and captured Jakarta (the capital of Indonesia). Suharto was the second President of Indonesia and although views around his presidency are contested because of his violent ousting of the country's first President, but it is said he largely improved the standards of living, education and health in Indonesia.
