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]
Following Lampung's 2018 gubernatorial election, Chalim was elected as vice governor of Lampung, with Arinal Djunaidi becoming governor.[6] They were sworn in on 12 June 2019.[7]
