One of the largest MCS types is Mesoscale Convective Complex (MCC). MCC identification was performed using infrared satellite images according to the criteria of Maddox (1980) as well as Miller and Fritsch (1991). The study was conducted during one MJO events covering phases 1 to 8 on January 17 to February 16, 2017. This study was conducted to find out the MCC characteristic that occurred in Indonesia region as well as the spatial and temporal distribution of MCC during MJO events. Based on the results of the study it is known that MCC occurs during the MJO phase with the highest occurrence in the second phase. The existence of an active MJO contributes to MCC cloud formation, but decreases in El-Nino. MCC's contribution to rain is seen by comparing the distribution of MCC with GsMap data. The results show that MCC supports heavy rainfall in case studies in Lampung and during the MJO events in Indonesia. In general, MCC occurs on the night until the morning and reach the extinction phase in the afternoon until the afternoon with dominant movement towards the Southwest to the West.
