DESCRIPTION:The New Rulers Of The World (2001) is a documentary about how the US, UK, 
 Dutch Neo-Colonial Corporations plotted General Suharto’s removal in 1966 
 of the first elected President of Indonesia, Sukarno, who had ruled from 
 1959 - 1966. It analyzes the corporate globalization economy and reveals 
 that the divisions between the rich and poor have never been greater. The 
 film turns the spotlight on the “new rulers of the world,” the great 
 multinational corporations running governments that back them via the IMF, 
 the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization. They control developing 
 resource-rich nations to impose austerity poverty on most of the people and 
 to privatize the natural resources that rightly should be their 
 commonwealth. The West, explains Pilger, has increased its stranglehold on 
 poor countries by using the might of these powerful financial institutions 
 to control their economies and keep them in debt.  \nJohn Richard Pilger is 
 an Australian journalist and a legendary award-winning documentary film 
 maker. Pilger has been mainly based in the United Kingdom since 1962 where 
 he wrote for The New Statesman. Pilger is a strong critic of American, 
 Australian, and British foreign policies, which he considers to be driven 
 by an imperialist corporate globalization agenda.\n\nSponsored by BFUU
