Tito's son presents credentials

JAKARTA: A son of former Yugoslavian president the late Broz Tito, Aleksander Broz, presented his credentials to President Megawati Soekarnoputri on Monday as Croatian ambassador to Indonesia.

In a state ceremony held at Merdeka Palace, Broz shared a light moment with Megawati reflecting on being children of the founders of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM).

The late president Tito and Indonesia's founding president Sukarno, Megawati's father, were among five world leaders who established NAM in 1955.
