MALIN KUNDANG
A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a
woman and her son lived. They were Malin Kundang and her mother. Her
mother was a single parent because Malin Kundang's father had passed
away when he was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.
Malin Kundang was a healthy, dilligent, and strong boy. He usually went
to sea to catch fish. After getting fish he would bring it to his
mother, or sold the caught fish in the town.
One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant's ship which
was being raided by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant.
With his brave and power, Malin Kundang defeated the pirates. The
merchant was so happy and thanked to him. In return the merchant asked
Malin Kundang to sail with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang
agreed. He left his mother alone.
Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge ship and
was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he had a
beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship
landed on a beach near a small village. The villagers recognized him.
The news ran fast in the town; “Malin Kundang has become rich and now he
is here”
An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She was
Malin Kundang’s mother. She wanted to hug him, released her sadness of
being lonely after so long time. Unfortunately, when the mother came,
Malin Kundang who was in front of his well dressed wife and his ship
crews denied meeting that old lonely woman. For three times her mother
begged Malin Kundang and for three times he yelled at her. At last Malin
Kundang said to her "Enough, old woman! I have never had a mother like
you, a dirty and ugly woman!" After that he ordered his crews to set
sail. He would leave the old mother again but in that time she was full
of both sadness and angriness.
Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a
stone if he didn't apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set
sail.
In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was
wrecked and it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was
thrown by the wave out of his ship. He fell on a small island. It was
really too late for him to avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a stone.
Once
upon a time, in the coastal area of Sumatra, lives a poor family. The
family had a kid named Malin Kundang. Due to very poor condition of
their families, Malin kundang's father decided to go to the country
side.
Malin kundang and his mother hope that he could bring some money and support their daily needs. Time after time, they wait for him, but he did not come. They even believed that he is already dead.
Feeling sad, Malin kundang thought that he could make a living in the country side in the hope that later on when returning to my hometown; he has become a very rich. Finally Malin kundang go sailing along with a merchant ship captain in his hometown that has been successful. - See more at: http://www.englishindo.com/2011/10/malin-kundang.html#sthash.f9VN1c4o.dpuf
