Rachman Halim (30 July 1947 – 27 July 2008) was a Chinese Indonesian businessman.
Halim was born Tjoa To Hing (;Hokkien: Chhoà Tō-hêng) in Kediri, East Java to a prominent Chinese Indonesian (Hokchia totok) family. He was the first son of Surya Wonowidjojo, founder of Gudang Garam, a major Indonesian kretek (clove cigarette) manufacturer.
