Bukhari Daud (25 October 1959 – 11 February 2021) was an Indonesian English-language teacher and politician who was the Regent of Aceh Besar from 2007 until 2012.

[2] Bukhari ran as a candidate in the 2006 Aceh Besar regent election,[3] choosing Anwar Ahmad as his running mate.

[5] A year into his term, on 5 September 2008, Bukhari caused a stir[6] after he announced his resignation from the office following a meeting with bureau heads.

The media remarked that Bukhari resigned due to the extensive intervention exerted by his "Success Team"—a group of people that supported him during the regency election—in bureaucratic processes and procurements.

[6] His rationale was rejected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Bukhari continued his tenure after being lobbied by the Aceh Besar's parliament.

[3] During his tenure, Bukhari attempted to utilize local food sources, such as papaya and cattle, to improve the public welfare in the region.

[15] Bukhari also oversaw the allocation of KUBE, a financial assistance program from the Ministry of Social Affairs, to his regency.

Bukhari was considered unable to collaborate with Aceh Besar's parliament and had basic weaknesses in the context of leadership, conflict management and competition.
