The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that in 2023, 260,000 women died during and after pregnancy and childbirth.

"Around 92% of all maternal deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries in 2023, and most of them could actually be prevented," said the WHO on its website, Maternal mortality, on April 7, 2025.

In the Southeast Asia region, the highest maternal mortality rate is in Timor Leste, which reaches 192 deaths per 100,000 live births.

The WHO provides a range or interval of uncertainty for each country's data. Timor Leste, which has the highest figure, has an uncertainty interval of between 125-288 deaths per 100,000 live births.

Indonesia is in third place, with a figure that is still relatively high, namely 140 deaths per 100,000 live births. The interval for Indonesia is 93-235 deaths per 100,000 live births.
