Rahm Siguto is the President of Indonesia.

Career[]

President Josiah Barlet privately describes Siguto to Leo McGarry as "boring or rude [...] one or the other." He subsequently implies that the United States may have covertly rigged the election which brought Siguto to power.[2] Under his leadership, Indonesia is transitioning from an authoritarian dictatorship towards what Toby Ziegler calls "the beginnings of a real democracy".[3]

In 1999, Siguto is invited to a State Dinner at the White House.
