Penukal Abab Lematang Ilir, Administrative region in South Sumatra, Indonesia.

Penukal Abab Lematang Ilir is an administrative region in South Sumatra that spans across five districts with different local centers. The territory is surrounded by other regencies and serves as a major administrative hub for communities throughout the area.

This region was established as an independent administrative regency in 2013 after five districts separated from the neighboring Muara Enim Regency. The creation reflects administrative reforms designed to better serve the governance needs of local communities.

The population of 209,771 residents combines Malay and Javanese communities, maintaining their traditional customs within South Sumatra's regional identity.

Talang Ubi functions as the administrative center and is where to find public services and governance offices. It is advisable to explore the local infrastructure to understand the services available to residents and visitors in the area.

Three major rivers - the Penukal, Abab, and Lematang - shape this region and form the basis of its name. The term Ilir refers to the downstream location of these waterways, showing how closely the area is tied to its natural water systems.
