(Video) Legend of Supirak Island, Mother’s Curse Towards Her Ungrateful Son

Supirak Island is definitely one of the best and also very interesting attractions ever existed in Pitas apart from all the floating coral bars. According to legend, this particular island which is shaped like a big ship is based on the legend of Supirak who is a lady from a village in Pitas that cursed her ungrateful son. The rock formation can be seen as a ship and aboard the rock ship, one could see all the other objects that resemble people, tables, and also other equipment.

This Supirak Island is about 1 hour 30 minutes from Kg. Malubang and about 15 minutes by Boat. If the name is an island, there must be a connection towards any story even though the story of the legend is based on a true story and then added by the entertainer to beautify the story. In addition, this Supirak Island is also known as the Island of Sorrow.

According to the story, there lived a couple of long time ago. The man was a fisherman who went missing in a fishing trip and had left behind his own pregnant housewife named Supirak. She gave birth to Si Ragam, a boy who grew up as a responsible and also hardworking man who really cared about his mother. He had built a small hut for both on the seaside Torong Puteh. To the mother that is Supirak, Ragam means everything to her. She really loves her only son.

One fine day, a ship docked at Torong Puteh to be resupplied. Being ambitious, Si Ragam had asked for his mother’s permission to work on-board for better prospects. He also promised Supirak that he would return home one day. Before he left, his mother took a strand of his hair as a keepsake that he will come back home to his beloved mother.

Due to his diligence and intelligence, Si Ragam became the captain of the ship. A few years later, his ship landed on an island called Pulau Intan. He met the king in Istana Bahkiah with his merchant boss. During the visit, Si Ragam fell in love with the princess, Dayang Dundunai, and married her months later. One day Si Ragam was on a voyage with his wife and parked his ship at Torong Puteh. The villagers were so excited when they recognized Si Ragam. They held a big party to welcome him. Supirak was so happy when everyone told her that her beloved son was back.

She boarded the ship to meet her son. Unfortunately, seeing Supirak in ragged clothes, Si Ragam was too ashamed of acknowledging her as his mother in front of his royal wife, and he disowned Supirak and chased her out of the ship. Devastated and disheartened, Supirak rowed back to the shore. She was then mocked by the villagers. In deep resentment, Supirak took out Si Ragam’s hair and cursed her son. Suddenly, a heavy storm came to rock the ship. Si Ragam regretted his wrongdoing and cried aloud begging for forgiveness. It was too late too little. The ship and its occupants turned into stone.
