Background: Indonesia is declared as the second country with the highest number of tuberculosis in the world based on WHO report 2016. This is a challenge for Indonesia especially for the targets in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), that is: in 2030, ending the epidemics of HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, and neglected tropical diseases, and fighting hepatitis, water-borne diseases, and other infectious diseases. The results from the tuberculosis survey estimated the prevalence of 660/100,000, which means 0.65% of Indonesia's population suffers from tuberculosis or 1,600,000 cases of tuberculosis, where 1,000,000 new cases occur annually. While the case detection rate is only 33% or there are about 670,000 for missing cases (undetectable). Objectives: To determine controlling programs for the prevalence of tuberculosis and risk factors, so that the incidence of tuberculosis can be kept as low as possible. Methods: Systematic review was conducted to obtain evidence of prevalence rates of tuberculosis, risk factors, and effective control measures in reducing tuberculosis morbidity and mortality. Science Direct, Medline, Cochrane databases were used, along with Google and Google Scholar search engines. Results: The prevalence rate internationally varies between countries. The most important risk factors to be considered are: HIV contributes to the increased incidence of tuberculosis, and tuberculosis multi drugs resistance contributes to the amount of death, and also recurrence of tuberculosis in the community has to be controlled. Conclusions: The tuberculosis control program should involve the participation of communities and stakeholders and put tuberculosis as a major issue in all sectors of society. In addition, the dissemination of information about tuberculosis to the public should be more intensive and sustained, due to the increase of tuberculosis in line with the increase in HIV.
