LEGEND OF MAIN KUNDANG (Part 1)
Part 1
Once upon a time, on the north coast of Sumatra lived a poor
woman and his son. The boy was called Malin Kundang. They didn’t earn much as
fishing was their only source of income. Malin Kundang grew up as a skillful
young boy. He always helps his mother to earn some money. However, as they were
only fisherman’s helper, they still lived in poverty. “Mother, what if I sail
overseas?” asked Malin Kundang one day to his mother. Her mother didn’t agree
but Malin Kundang had made up his mind. “Mother, if I stay here, I’ll always be
a poor man. I want to be a successful person,” urged Malin kundang. His mother
wiped her tears, “If you really want to go, I can’t stop you. I could only pray
to God for you to gain success in life,” said his mother wisely. “But, promise
me, you’ll come home.”
