Sitanala leprosy village is a spontaneously established village of "kusta" patients (leprosy or morbus hansen) from the Sitanala leprosy hospital located in Tangerang Banten. Its location not far from the airport Soekarno Hatta promising an interesting prospect for Local Government to change the location of the leprosy residence from there to become a business center. The burden of leprosy stigma is still very high, even in areas called "low endemic". Both individuals, families and communities experience painful effects. In the context of the world's most populous Muslim country, leprosy in Indonesia is a challenge, it needs a greater movement within the community to build leprosy communities more empowered..All the way taken, but the crucial problem of stigma and discrimination against leprosy has not been resolved until now in Indonesia.
