Cornelis (born 27 July 1953) is a West Kalimantan Governor from 2008 to 2018. He got his master degree in law from a university in Pontianak in 2004.

He has been accused by Agus Setiadji, leader of the United Malay People, of sidelining Malays and only giving government jobs and funds to Dayaks.[1] He was reelected once in 2013, and his second term expired on 14 January 2018.[2]
