Ali Mufiz (born 21 July 1944) is an Indonesian academician and politician who served as the governor of Central Java between September 2007 and August 2008.
Mardiyanto and Mufiz secured the support of the National Awakening Party (PKB), and won the election with 62 out of 99 councillor votes despite the split within PDI-P.[2][4] In 2007, Mardiyanto was appointed by president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono as Minister of Home Affairs, and was thus removed from gubernatorial post with Mufiz succeeding him.
[7] After the end of his gubernatorial tenure, Mufiz joined Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's reelection campaign for the 2009 Indonesian presidential election, and was appointed as head of Central Java team.
[8] In the 2013 Central Java gubernatorial election, Waluyo's reelection campaign named Mufiz as an advisor to the campaign team, but Mufiz instead endorsed Ganjar Pranowo, stating that he had been named an advisor without consulting him.
[9] He also became head of the advisory committee of Central Java's branch of the Indonesian Ulema Council.
