Milivoj Emil Lajovic (23 July 1921 – 5 June 2008), also known as Misha Lajovic, was an Australian politician of Slovene origin.

Born in Ljubljana, Slovenia, in what was then the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, he emigrated to Australia after the establishment of the Titoist regime in Yugoslavia in 1945. He became an accountant and marketing manager. In 1975, he was elected to the Australian Senate as a Liberal Senator for New South Wales.[1] He held the seat until his retirement in 1985. He died in 2008.[2]

Misha Lajovic was the brother of Dušan Lajovic, notable Australian-Slovenian businessman.[citation needed]
