Abdulrachman Setjowibowo (21 September 1916 – 24 June 1982) was an Indonesian military officer, politician, bureaucrat, and diplomat who served as a member of parliament from 1960 until 1969 and as the nation's ambassador to Finland from 1979 until his death.

Early life and career

Abdulrachman Setjowibowo was born on 21 September 1916 in Kebumen, a regency of the Dutch East Indies. He worked as a bureaucrat for the Dutch East Indies Government in the Grobogan Regency and continued his career after Japanese forces occupied Dutch East Indies. One of his positions during the occupation period was as the head of the Pulukulon District.

Police career

Abdulrachman entered police service following the independence of Indonesia in 1945. He was appointed as the Head of the Organizational Affairs in the Indonesian police in 1950s. Several years later, in August 1956, he and three other police officers was sent to the United States to attend a police course for six months. He was promoted from police senior commissioner to brigadier general in the midst of his tenure as a member of parliament and from brigadier general to major general while holding the office of director general. He retired from the police force in January 1971.

Member of the People's Representative Council

On 24 June 1960, Abdulrachman was appointed as a member of the newly formed People's Representative Council of Mutual Assistance, representing the armed forces and the police forces inside the parliament. He was sworn in for the office the day after.

Abdulrachman became a candidate in a Golkar internal primary for the party's parliament speaker nominee in May 1966. He only obtained six out of seventy five votes in the primary and lost to Mursalin Daeng Mamangung and Sjarif Thajeb.

Director General of Agrarian Affairs

After serving as a member of parliament for nine years, Abdulrachman became the Director General of Agrarian Affairs under the Ministry of Home Affairs on 29 March 1969.

Indonesia Ambassador to Finland

Abdulrachman was sworn in as the Indonesia Ambassador to Finland on 23 June 1979. In the midst of his tenure as ambassador, Abdulrachman died on 24 June 1982 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. He was buried at a cemetery in Kuncen, Yogyakarta.

Family

Abdulrachman's daughter, Nani Supadmiani Titi Utari, was married to Mohammad Sarengat, an Indonesian field sprinter and military doctor. When Sarengat was about to be deployed to West Kalimantan during the Indonesia–Malaysia confrontation, Abdulrachman persuaded his daughter to acquiesce Sarengat's departure.
