Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia is a Malaysian politician and the current Speaker of the "Dewan Rakyat", the lower house of the Parliament of Malaysia. He was previously a Minister in the Prime Minister's Department. After the 2008 general elections, the Barisan Nasional coalition government announced that Pandikar, a member of the United Malays National Organization, would be the new Speaker, replacing Ramli Ngah Talib.

He denied his resignation was linked to possible party-switching amongst UMNO MPs from East Malaysia.
