Located in the southeastern part of the Aru Islands archipelago, this district occupies a central position among the scattered islands that characterize this remote region. Situated approximately 2,300 kilometers east of Jakarta, Aru Tengah Selatan forms part of Indonesia's eastern frontier, positioned between the Arafura Sea to the south and the Ceram Sea to the north. The district covers an area of approximately 1,200 square kilometers and has a population of around 15,000 people, primarily engaged in fishing, pearl farming, and small-scale agriculture. Aru Tengah Selatan is administratively divided into 12 villages (desa), each representing distinct island communities within the district's jurisdiction. The region's tropical climate supports diverse marine ecosystems and limited terrestrial agriculture, with sago palm cultivation being particularly important for local subsistence. This district serves as an important administrative center for coordinating development and services across its constituent islands. For those seeking to access postal services or communicate with residents across this dispersed island district, accurate postal code information for each of its 12 villages is essential for effective mail delivery and administrative coordination.
