There are Bugis, Toraja, and Makassar of course and there are many different between them.For example, Bugis clan is so softness in their attitude at the same time the Makassar’s is very rough in their attitude. And the Torajan’s is popular with their magic and their deadly ceremonial (Rambu Solo), where if the king or people in the Toraja die, they will be walk to their graveyard.That’s so scary.
