     Abstract The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) increases yearly, particularly in low and middle-income countries (LMIC). Avoiding risk factors serves to effectively and efficiently reduce CRC incidence. In this ethnography study, we explored the health behavior of at risk persons of CRC to reduce the risk in Palembang. Purposive sampling was used, and saturated of 9 participants. The data were collected using participant observation, in-depth interview and focus group discussion, then analysed using thematic analysis. There were nine themes emerging: food preparation, food cooking, food consumption, moderate physical activity, health checks and medical treatment; trying traditional herbs, alternative therapy, spiritual power as treatment, controlling risky health related behaviours, cancer information, and self-health perspectives. Multiple-sectoral strategies and collaboration between academics, practices, communities and government are needed amid carrying out risk reduction activities to increase awareness along with community empowerment and capacity building following cultural understanding.
