South Buru Regency, Administrative regency in Maluku, Indonesia

South Buru Regency encompasses 5,060 square kilometers of land area, including the southern portion of Buru Island and the smaller island of Ambalau.

The regency emerged as an independent administrative entity on June 24, 2008, when authorities separated it from the original Buru Regency through official legislation.

The official motto 'Lolik Lalen Fedak Fena' represents the regional commitment to national development through collective community efforts in South Buru.

The regency contains six administrative districts: Kepala Madan, Leksula, Fena Fafan, Namrole, Waesama, and Ambalau, with Namrole functioning as the capital district.

The region experiences an inverse rainfall pattern compared to other Indonesian territories, with maximum precipitation occurring during the low-sun season.
