description This article explores the life of Malin Kundang in the context of the Minangkabau culture. Reader who views his life from the traditional perspective condemn him for refusing to accept his mother just because she is different from what he imagines her to be. Others however, attempt to deconstruct the story. Navis, for intance, deconstructs and gives it a new title, ie Malin Kundang: His Mother Is a Condemned Mother.

Malaysian readers on the other hand, tend to accept stories in the traditional perspective
