The original "Malin Kundang" story is set at a specific location, the Air Manis Beach in Padang, West Sumatra. Malin Kundang tells the story of an ungrateful son who is cursed into stone by his mother.

If you visit the beach, you can see a stone believed to be the cursed Malin Kundang because it is shaped like a person face-down on his knees begging for forgiveness.

Another folktale from West Kalimantan called "Batu Menangis" ("The Crying Stone") has a story very similar to Malin Kundang, but no "crying stone" has ever been discovered in the area.

There are some differences between the two stories. Malin Kundang, in the beginning of the story, is a hard-working, obedient young man. He sails the world to get more money to support his mother. After many years, Malin comes back a rich man. New, vain Malin now refuses to be associated with his poor mother. That's when the mother prays for him to be transformed into stone.

Meanwhile, Batu Menangis's main character is a spoiled girl who never lifts a finger to help her mother. Instead, she keeps saying to people that the mother is actually her maid. Mother finally has enough and prays to God that the girl is turned into stone.

From the text above, we can inferred that ...

a)

Malin Kundang is the one only story which tells about disobeying children to the parents

b)

Batu Menangis's main lead has maid

c)

Batu Menangis's mother put a curse to his son

d)

The main leads do not own their parents
