Structuralism approach is used to analyze the moral values on Rahwana figure which emphasizes on intrinsic elements of fiction works.

The method used in this study is analytical descriptive and it consists of primary and secondary data sources.

The techniques for collecting data comprise reading, classifying, reducing and describing data. The technique used to analyze the data is content analysis. The results show that the moral values appeared in Rahwana’s characters embrace honesty, trust, justice and courage are the manifestation of Javanese leadership concept called astabrata.
