Dr. Ir. H. Nur Mahmudi Ismail was born in Kediri, November 11, 1961. Currently he is the Mayor of Depok City, a satellite city of West Java located in the southern part of Jakarta.[1]
Ismail was the first chairman of Prosperous Justice Party (formerly Justice Party), when the party was created in 1998. Later, after the 1999 general election, Ismail resigned from his position as the chairman of the party after being chosen by President Abdurrahman Wahid to serve as the minister of forestry in the United National Cabinet. He held this position from 1999 to 2000, when President Wahid replaced him with Marzuki Usman.
In 2005, together with his running mate, Yuyun Wirasaputra, Ismail narrowly won the mayoral election, beating the incumbent Badrul Kamal.
