Airin Rachmi Diany (born 1976) is an Indonesian politician who served as the mayor of South Tangerang from 2011 to 2021.[1] She is also the aunt of Banten lieutenant governor Andika Hazrumy.[2] She has led several initiatives to combat recruitment of people in her city by radical fundamentalist groups, including interfaith forums, with the support of Indonesia's central government.[3] She also commissioned a canal project in order to prevent flooding on the Jakarta–Serpong Toll Road in February 2017.[4]
Diany represented West Java at 1996 Puteri Indonesia. Diany placed as one of the Top 10 finalists. Diany also won the People's Choice Award as well as the Miss Indonesia Tourism award in that competition. Actress-turned-representative in the People's Representative Council, Nurul Arifin, pointed to Diany and Surabaya mayor Tri Rismaharini as her inspiration for running for mayor of Bandung.[5]
