description Folktales are a form of traditional literature that play an important role in conveying the thoughts and values of past societies to present-day communities. Therefore, this study aims to identify and analyze the social aspects in Pahang folktales. To achieve this objective, the study employs a societal approachbased on the Malay Methodology Theory by Hashim Awang (1993). A total of 11 Pahang folktales contained in the text "Himpunan 366 Cerita Rakyat Malaysia," edited by Othman Puteh and Aripin Said(2010), are analyzed in this study.
