Similarities: Both folk tales originate from the same island, namely the island of Sumatra. In addition, the two stories tell almost the same story, namely the story of a person who is disobedient to his parents, especially his mother. At the end of the story, both stories tell how the parents (mother) finally cursed their disobedient children because they no longer recognized them as their parents.

Difference: Although the two stories originate from the island of Sumatra, the stories of Malin Kundang and Pulau Kapal are from different regions. Malin Kundang comes from West Sumatra while Pulau Kapal is from South Sumatra. Both stories tell how the parents of each of the main characters cursed him for not recognizing his parents anymore. However, in the story of Malin Kundang the Malin was cursed to a stone while the Foreskin was cursed so that the ship sank and finally capsized which until now is considered to be Ship Island.
