Khoirudin (born 8 July 1966) is an Indonesian politician and teacher. He is currently a member and deputy speaker of the Jakarta Regional House of Representatives, first being elected into the body in 2019. He is part of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS).
Khoirudin was born in Jakarta on 8 July 1966.[1] He is of Betawi descent, with his grandfather being a Quran reading teacher. He studied in state-funded schools in Jakarta, before enrolling at the Jakarta State University in 1986. He graduated in 1992.[2]
After he graduated from UNJ, Khoirudin became a teacher at a middle school in West Jakarta. He then moved to another middle school in South Jakarta, becoming the school's principal in 1999 and remaining until 2012. He also taught at an Islamic Institute in Depok.[2] By 2006, he had become a member of the Prosperous Justice Party and was chairman of its South Jakarta branch, and in 2015 he was elected as deputy chairman of the party's Jakarta branch.[3] In 2013, he led a demonstration against a decision by president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to increase the price of subsidized gasoline.[4]
Khoirudin ran for a seat in the Jakarta Regional House of Representatives in the 2019 election from the 7th district which covered Setiabudi, Mampang Prapatan, Kebayoran Baru, Cilandak, and Pancoran. He won 16,431 votes, and was elected as PKS' sole representative in the district.[5] On 2 June 2022, he was appointed to replace Abdurrahman Suhaimi as a deputy speaker of the body.[6] PKS officials cited a party policy of "refreshment" for the replacement. At that time, Khoirudin was chairman of PKS' Jakarta branch.[7] He was reelected from the same district in 2024, winning 23,377 votes.[8]
As a legislator, Khoirudin has called for Jakarta's provincial government to increase subsidies for education, food, and to laborers, citing the high cost of living.[9]
