YOGYAKARTA LaNyalla Mahmud Mattalitti's profile has attracted the attention of the public because he is running for the General Chair (Ketum) of the highest football federation in Indonesia, the All-Indonesian Football Association (PSSI). LaNyalla's name is not a new name, both in government seats and in the ranks of PSSI officials themselves.
LaNyalla Profile
La Nyalla Mahmud Mattalitti or better familiarly called La Nyalla Mattalitti was born in Jakarta on May 10, 1959. He is a figure who is well known both in the world of politics and in the world of sports.
LaNyalla's background is quite diverse. His father was named Mahmud Mattalitti, a lecturer who had held the position of Assistant Dean of the Faculty of Law (FH) Airlangga University. Meanwhile, his sister is Haji Mattalitti, known as a Bugis-Makassar entrepreneur who is also respected in Surabaya, East Java.
LaNyalla's childhood was spent in Surabaya. He studied elementary school (SD) at SD Bhinneka Bhakti, Surabaya. After that, he continued his education at SMP Negeri 1 Surabaya, and continued to SMA Negeri 3 Surabaya. LaNyalla received his bachelor's degree from Universitas Brawijaya by majoring in Civil Engineering.
LaNyalla was known as a businessman over a politician. He worked odd jobs until he became a driver of the Wononokromo-Red Bridge, Surabaya. However, the achievement that made his name widely known was when he held a trade show in 1989 under the name Creativity of Indonesian Youth (WE) in Surabaya.
Our exhibition was held with sponsorship of PT Maspion. Unfortunately, the first exhibition he held failed because the number of visitors was not what he expected. He even had to return the sponsorship money given by PT Maspion to LaNyalla in installments.
Even though he failed, LaNyalla again held a similar event by lobbying PT Maspion again. The exhibition was named Surabaya Expo. The enthusiasm of visitors is quite large. Surabaya Expo then catapulted LaNyalla's name in Surabaya to take her to the next career journey.
In the world of football, La Nyalla's name was once in the big spotlight. He was an important person at PSSI, East Java. In 2011 he served as Deputy Chairman of the East Java PSSI. He was then trusted as Chairman of PSSI-KPSI (Indonesian Football Rescue Committee) for the 2012-2016 period to replace Johar Arifin Hussein. La Nyalla firmly became Deputy Chairman of the Ketum in the 2013-2015 period when PSSI-KPSI merged into one.
La Nyalla's career at PSSI is increasing. He was confirmed to be the General Chair of PSSI through the voting of the Extraordinary PPSI Congress to beat Syarif Bastaman. While serving as an important person in the world of Indonesian football, La Nyalla was in the spotlight because in 2012-2014 his name was associated with the case of irregularities in East Java's KADIN grant funds from the East Java Provincial Government.
Even in March 2016 La Nyalla was named a suspect and detained for seven months by the Prosecutor's Office after being tried at the Central Jakarta District Court. His name was clean again after he was not proven to be involved in the case until he was finally released on December 27, 2016.
The legal case that once dragged his name did not make La Nyalla fail to become a DPD RI. The inauguration was held on October 2, 2019 and was inaugurated by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia, M. Hatta Ali, who is none other than LaNyalla's own uncle.
Currently La Nyalla is running for PSSI General Chair. The KLB itself will be held on February 16, 2023. He will compete with another potential candidate, Erick Thohir, who is now the Minister of BUMN.
