Who they are

The Muko-muko inhabit the southwestern coast of the island of Sumatra, in Indonesia, maintaining close cultural ties with the Minangkabau tradition. They live mainly from agriculture and coastal fishing, valuing strong community and family bonds that shape their daily routine in the villages.

Their identity is deeply tied to the Islamic faith and local ancestral customs, resulting in a cohesive social context where there is virtually no known Christian presence.
