Chusnunia Chalim is an Indonesian politician. She is currently the executive of the East Lampung Regency,[1] and is the first woman to hold the office.[2] She was also a member of the People's Representative Council's delegation to the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly in 2012.[3]

Chalim has promoted the regency as an international tourism destination through its natural beauty.[2] Six elephant calves have been born at Way Kambas National Park during the first two years of her tenure, one of which she named herself.[4] A few months after taking office, she led a festival at the Park which included playing soccer with eggplants and a cracker-eating contest.[5]
