Read the story again, identify the main idea and the supporting idea from each paragraph. Paragraph 1 has been done for you.

Paragraph: Paragraph 1

Main Idea:

Once upon a time lived two men named Bujang Beji and Tumenggung Marubai, who were different from each other in character.

Supporting Idea:

Tumenggung Marubai was a humble, kind-hearted person. Bujang Beji was his opposite. He was greedy and arrogant. They made a living as fishermen, each having his own favorite spot for fishing.

Tumenggung Marubai sourced his fish Rimpang Melawi River, where fish could be found in abundance. As for Bujang Beji, he always fished in Simpang Kapuas River, where there was less fish.

Therefore, it was no wonder that Tumenggung Marubai always brought home more fish than did Bujang Beji.

Paragraph: Paragraph 2

Main Idea:

The Simpang Melawi River region had many types of fish, more than the fish in Simpang Kapuas River

Supporting Idea:

Therefore the catch of Tumenggung Marubai was always more than Bujang Beji. Tumenggung Melawi used traps or a kind of large trap to catch fish.

Once collected in the trap, he only selected the big fish, while the small fish were released back so that the fish in Simpang Melawi River always bred and never ran out. 

Paragraph: Paragraph 3

Main Idea:

Seeing the capture of Tumenggung Marubai, Bujang Beji felt envious.

Supporting Idea:

He also looked for a way to defeat Tumenggung Melawi. Then, he went the wrong way.

He began to catch fish by menuba, which was to poison the fish with tuba, a kind of fish poison from the roots of very intoxicating forest plants.

At first, he got a lot of fish, more from the catch of Tumenggung Marubai. However, because the method used was to kill the fish with poison, over time the fish in Simpang Kapuas became greatly reduced.

Meanwhile, Tumenggung Marubai still got a lot of catches. This made Bujang Beji even more jealous.

Paragraph: Paragraph 4

Main Idea:

Bujang Beji meant to use the top of Batu Hill in Nanga Silat, Kapuas Hulu to block the Melawi River.

Supporting Idea:

With his magic, he cut the top of Batu Hill and brought it with seven leaves of weeds. While carrying the stone hill, he suddenly heard the sound of girls laughing at him.

They were the goddesses of the heavenly realm. When he reached the intersection between Kapuas and Malawi, Bujang Beji looked up to see who was laughing at him.

Inadvertently, his foot stepped on the poisonous thorn until he jumped up and screamed in pain. As a result, seven sheets of weed leaves he was wearing were cut off.

The top of the rock hill also fell into a river called jetak.

Paragraph: Paragraph 5

Main Idea:

Bujang Beji tried to lift Batu Hill that had been submerged in the jetty by digging it up using an elongated hill

Supporting Idea: 

However, because the rock hill was already attached to the jetty, the effort was unsuccessful. The elongated hill was broken.

The fracture is now called Liut Hill. Thus, Bujang Beji’s attempt to close the Melawi River failed. All because of the goddesses of heaven. “I will take revenge,” said Bujang Beji.

Paragraph: Paragraph 6

Main Idea:

Bujang Benji planned to reach the land of heaven by using the kumpang mambu tree, which is a kind of giant wooden tree whose end rises to the sky.

Supporting Idea:

He started planting a scented tree. In just a few days the tree had grown so tall that the top was invisible to the naked eye.

Before climbing kumpang mambu, Bujang Beji performed a traditional ritual, which was to give offerings to the subtle spirits and animals around him so as not to interfere with his efforts to reach the land of heaven.

However, there were two types of animals that Bujang Beji forgot to offer, they were a group of termites and bears.

Paragraph: Paragraph 7

Main Idea:

When Bujang Beji started climbing the kumpang mambu tree, a swarm of termites and bears came to attack and gnawed on the tree at the bottom until the tree was cut off.

Supporting Idea:

At that time, Bujang Beji had almost reached the land of heaven. He fell to the ground and died instantly. Thus, Bujang Beji’s attempt to harm the goddesses of heaven also failed.

Tumenggung Marubai was spared from Bujang Beji’s evil intentions.

Paragraph: Paragraph 8

Main Idea:

Meanwhile, the peak of Nanga Silat Hill that escaped from Bujang Beji’s blow turned into Kelam Hill.

Supporting Idea:

Now Kelam Hill has become one of the tourist attractions in the Sintang area, West Kalimantan, and has become a tourist forest area with a very beautiful view.

The story of Bujang Beji and Bukit Kelam

Once upon a time, lived two men named Bujang Beji and Tumenggung Marubai, who were different from each other in character.

Tumenggung Marubai was a humble, kind-hearted person. Bujang Beji was his opposite. He was greedy and arrogant. They made a living as fishermen, each having his own favorite spot for fishing.

Tumenggung Marubai sourced his fish Rimpang Melawi River, where fish could be found in abundance.

As for Bujang Beji, he always fished in Simpang Kapuas River, where there was less fish. Therefore, it was no wonder that Tumenggung Marubai always brought home more fish than did Bujang Beji.

Tumenggung Marubai used a big trap called bubu to catch fish. After his bubu was filled with fish, he chose only the bigger ones and released the smaller ones back to the river.

Thanks to his fishing wisdom, there were always plenty of fish in the river.

Realizing that he had never caught as many fish as Tumenggung Marubai did, Bujang Beji felt so envious that he thought of a way to beat him.

An evil thought crossed his mind. He decided to catch fish using tuba, a fish poison extracted from derris root. He found it works. Fish were easily caught, more and more fish every day.

But there was a greater problem that he did not realize, it was that the fish were greatly reduced.

On the other hand, Tumenggung Marubai still got a lot of catches. This made Bujang Beji even more jealous.

“What?” Bujang Beji yelled

“No one is better than me!” He must have the best of everything – everyone knows that.

What could be better? Bujang Beji was successful in catching many fish, but seeing what Tumenggung Marubay got, Bujang Beji was bothered.

So Bujang Beji decided to get rid of Tumenggung Marubai’s luck, once and for all. Then, Bujang Beji began to think and he found the way he thought was the best.

The very finest idea crossed his mind,

“I have to cover the flow of the Melawi River with a large rock upstream, so the fish will settle there,” thought Bujang Beji. He planned to use a large stone from the hills of Nanga Silat.

Then, he departed for the hills. He brought the rock in his hand. Then all of a sudden, far away, he heard the sound of girls laughing at him.

His attention was distracted, Bujang Beji accidentally stepped on a thorn, reflexively he dropped the stone that he was holding. Bujang Beji was caught in anger.

Bujang Beji found that it was the khayangan goddesses who laughed at him.

“You will pay for this!” he shouted as he stamped his foot pierced by a poisonous thorn on one of the nearby hills.

Bujang Beji’s failed to close the Melawi River. All because of the goddesses of heaven.

“I will take revenge.” Said Bujang Beji.

Bujang Beji planned to reach the land of heaven by using the kumpang mambu tree, which is a kind of giant wooden tree whose end rises to the sky.

He started planting the scented tree. In just a few days the tree had grown so high that the top was invisible to the naked eye.

Right before climbing the Kumpang Bambu, he did a superstition ritual in order to get protection from the holy spirits of the land and animal spirits.

However, there were two animals that Bujang Beji forgot to offer, they were a group of termites and bears. It made them angry. They also negotiated to thwart Bujang Beji.

“Let’s just gnaw the bamboo tree until it’s broken!” proposed the bear. The Termite agreed.

Then they started to do it. At that time, Bujang Beji had almost reached the land of heaven, he fell into the ground and died instantly.

Thus, Bujang Beji’s attempt to harm the goddesses of heaven also failed. Tumenggung Marubai was spared from Bujang Beji’s evil intentions.

Nowadays, the peak of Nanga Silat Hill is well known as Bukit Kelam.

It has become one of the tourist attractions in Sintang, West Kalimantan, and has become a tourist forest area with very beautiful scenery.
