In West Java Province, based on data from the Health Office, the number of DM sufferers has increased significantly in recent years. DM patients in West Java experience complications ranging from 15% to 20%. In 2019, Sukabumi Regency recorded 148,447 DM sufferers, while Bandung Regency recorded 45,412 people.
