Towards the 20th century, Palembang was present as a big city and its economic growth was rapid. Palembang was one of the important areas for the Dutch colonial government's cash income in the Sumatra Island region. Rapid economic growth has driven changes in the socio-economic conditions of the people throughout the Palembang area, both in the city and in the hinterland. This article discusses the socio-economic transformation of Palembang between 1900-1930. The main focus is to examine what drives the socio-economic transformation process in Palembang, how this transformation occurs, and what impact it has. This study aims to explain the process and impact of the socio-economic transformation that occurred in Palembang during 1900-1930. The method used is history with four stages, such as heuristics, source utilization, interpretation, and historiography. The results of this study indicate that the socio-economic transformation in Palembang has triggered significant changes in various fields. This transformation pushed Palembang into a profit area for the colonial government. Socio-economic changes and developments in Palembang triggered a process of modernization in the city and hinterland. The impact of this transformation is an increase in population, changes in lifestyle, and the growth of new social groups. There are several researchers who wrote about Palembang in the colonial era such as Abdullah (1984), Zed (2003), Santun (2010), Utama (2017), and Abubakar (2020). However, this article specifically discusses the socio-economic transformation in Palembang. In conclusion, this transformation brought many positive impacts on the socio-economic development of the people in Palembang.KEYWORDS: Transformation, Socio-Economic, Palembang
