Ma Fuxing (Chinese: 馬福興; Ma Fu-hsing in Wade Giles; 1864–1924) was a Hui born in Yunnan, in Qing dynasty China. He was an ex-convict. During Yang Zengxin's reign in Xinjiang, Ma was appointed as a military commander, and then Titai of Kashgar. Known for his brutality, including the execution of his perceived enemies using a hay cutting machine, Ma also developed resource industries in Xinjiang. In 1924, Yang sent forces to remove Ma from power in southwestern Xinjiang and kill him.
