Batam in particular is the area of Riau island which is susceptible to HIV infection and AIDS epidemic, because almost all of risk factors affecting the epidemic was found, including high risk sexual behavior, high frequencies of migration, and high number of harbor that many foreigners from high prevalent of HIV countries frequently dock. Until December 31st 2007, 262 people living with AIDS among all patients in Riau island province lived in Batam.

The unmeasured attributes were flexibility, sensitivity, Predictive value positive, and timeliness — apart from dissemination of program report. However, the representativeness and stability was low.
