'''Southeast Maluku Regency''' ({{langx|id|Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara}}) is a [[Regencies of Indonesia|regency]] of [[Maluku (province)|Maluku]], [[Indonesia]]. It is coincident with the [[Kei Islands]], except that the city of [[Tual, Indonesia|Tual]], although within the Kei Islands geographically and the seat of the Regency's administration, is since 17 July 2007 technically independent of the Regency. The land area of the Regency is 1,031.01 km<sup>2</sup>, while the sea area administered by the Regency was 3,181 km<sup>2</sup>; it had a population of 96,442 at the 2010 Census;<ref name="Biro Pusat Statistik 2011">Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011.</ref> this increased to 121,511 at the 2020 Census,<ref name="Badan Pusat Statistik 2021">Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021.</ref> and the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 129,034.<ref name="Badan Pusat Statistik 2024">Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2024, ''Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara Dalam Angka 2024'' (Katalog-BPS 1102001.8102)</ref> |

== History == |
||
The Regency as originally created included all the southern island groups within [[Maluku (province)]] from [[Wetar Island]] in the west to the [[Aru Islands]] in the east. On 4 October 1999 the western part of this regency was split off to create the [[Tanimbar Islands Regency|West Southeast Maluku Regency]] (which has subsequently been divided between the [[Southwest Maluku Regency]] and the [[Tanimbar Islands Regency]]). On 18 December 2003 the Aru Islands were split off to form [[Aru Islands Regency|their own Regency]], and on 17 July 2007 the City of [[Tual]] was split off to become an independent city. |
|||
The regency is divided into six [[Districts of Indonesia|districts]] (''kecamatan''), tabulated below with their 2010 Census population.<ref>Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011.</ref> |
|||
== Geography == |
|||
The two principal islands of the Regency are '''Kei Besar''' (''Greater Kei'') in the east and the slightly smaller (excluding those parts of the island now in Tual City) but more densely populated '''Kei Kecil''' (''Lesser Kei'') in the west. The capital is located at Langgur on Kei Kecil.<ref name="PP35-2011">[http://djpp.info/inc/buka.php?czozMjoiZD0yMDAwKzExJmY9cHAzNS0yMDExYnQuaHRtJmpzPTEiOw== Peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia Nomor 35 Tahun 2011 Tentang Pemindahan Ibu Kota Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara Dari Wilayah Kota Tual Ke Wilayah Kecamatan Kei Kecil Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara Provinsi Maluku] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120402174741/http://djpp.info/inc/buka.php?czozMjoiZD0yMDAwKzExJmY9cHAzNS0yMDExYnQuaHRtJmpzPTEiOw=%3D |date=2012-04-02 }}</ref> The third-largest island in the group, '''Dullah''', on which the city of Tual is located, is no longer within the Regency. |
|||
Kei Besar is long, thin and mountainous. Kei Besar's topography varies between 500 and 800 metres above sea level, and differs from the islands to the west by having a [[karst]] formation in the middle of it.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Malra |first=Kominfo |title=Letak Dan Kondisi Geografis |url=https://malukutenggarakab.go.id/web/profil/letak-dan-kondisi-geografis.html |access-date=2022-12-27 |website=Maluku Tenggara |language=en-gb}}</ref> Kei Kecil (also called Nuhuroa) is more low-lying, not exceeding about 100 metres above sea level, and contains much swampland; the regency's nominal capital, Langgur, is situated in the north-east of the island, just across a tiny channel from Tual on Dullah Island, and effectively forms a suburb of the City of Tual. |
|||
About 50 smaller, forest-covered coral islands lie of the west coast of Kei Kecil; about 33 are part of Kei Kecil District, including Ngaf, Ohoitir, Ohouwa, Nai, Warhu, Hoat and Tangwain; about 16 are part of Kei Kecil Barat District, including Lik, Tarwa, Waha, Warbal, Manir, Ur, Witir, Nuhuta and (further south) Tanimbar Kei. Further groups of islands which lie more to the west (but geographically part of the Kei Islands) form part of Tual City - including the [[Tayandu Islands|Tayando-Tam group]] of 27 islands and (even more to the west) the [[Kur Island|Kur group]] of 9 islands. |
|||
== Administrative Districts == |
|||
At the time of the 2010 Census the regency was divided into six [[Districts of Indonesia|districts]] (''kecamatan''), but by 2016 five additional districts had been created by the division of the existing districts. These are tabulated below with their land and sea areas and their populations at the 2010 Census<ref name="Biro Pusat Statistik 2011">Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011.</ref> and the 2020 Census,<ref name="Badan Pusat Statistik 2021">Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021.</ref> together with the official estimates as at mid 2023.<ref name="Badan Pusat Statistik 2024">Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2024, ''Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara Dalam Angka 2024'' (Katalog-BPS 1102001.8102)</ref> The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of [[administrative village]]s in each district (a total of 185 rural ''desa'' and 6 urban ''kelurahan''), and its postal code. |

Southeast Maluku Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara) is a regency of Maluku, Indonesia. It is coincident with the Kei Islands, except that the city of Tual, although within the Kei Islands geographically and the seat of the Regency's administration, is since 17 July 2007 technically independent of the Regency. The land area of the Regency is 1,031.01 km2, while the sea area administered by the Regency was 3,181 km2; it had a population of 96,442 at the 2010 Census;[2] this increased to 121,511 at the 2020 Census,[3] and the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 129,034.[1]
History
[edit]The Regency as originally created included all the southern island groups within Maluku (province) from Wetar Island in the west to the Aru Islands in the east. On 4 October 1999 the western part of this regency was split off to create the West Southeast Maluku Regency (which has subsequently been divided between the Southwest Maluku Regency and the Tanimbar Islands Regency). On 18 December 2003 the Aru Islands were split off to form their own Regency, and on 17 July 2007 the City of Tual was split off to become an independent city.
Geography
[edit]The two principal islands of the Regency are Kei Besar (Greater Kei) in the east and the slightly smaller (excluding those parts of the island now in Tual City) but more densely populated Kei Kecil (Lesser Kei) in the west. The capital is located at Langgur on Kei Kecil.[4] The third-largest island in the group, Dullah, on which the city of Tual is located, is no longer within the Regency.
Kei Besar is long, thin and mountainous. Kei Besar's topography varies between 500 and 800 metres above sea level, and differs from the islands to the west by having a karst formation in the middle of it.[5] Kei Kecil (also called Nuhuroa) is more low-lying, not exceeding about 100 metres above sea level, and contains much swampland; the regency's nominal capital, Langgur, is situated in the north-east of the island, just across a tiny channel from Tual on Dullah Island, and effectively forms a suburb of the City of Tual.
About 50 smaller, forest-covered coral islands lie of the west coast of Kei Kecil; about 33 are part of Kei Kecil District, including Ngaf, Ohoitir, Ohouwa, Nai, Warhu, Hoat and Tangwain; about 16 are part of Kei Kecil Barat District, including Lik, Tarwa, Waha, Warbal, Manir, Ur, Witir, Nuhuta and (further south) Tanimbar Kei. Further groups of islands which lie more to the west (but geographically part of the Kei Islands) form part of Tual City - including the Tayando-Tam group of 27 islands and (even more to the west) the Kur group of 9 islands.
Administrative Districts
[edit]At the time of the 2010 Census the regency was divided into six districts (kecamatan), but by 2016 five additional districts had been created by the division of the existing districts. These are tabulated below with their land and sea areas and their populations at the 2010 Census[2] and the 2020 Census,[3] together with the official estimates as at mid 2023.[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages in each district (a total of 185 rural desa and 6 urban kelurahan), and its postal code.
