The research method was carried out by qualitative and data collection techniques were carried out through semi-structured interviews or in-depth interviews and literature study and data analysis was carried out by flow analysis, namely collecting, processing, and drawing conclusions. Through this method it was found that the purpose of the manulangi was to honor the parent at the end of his life, asking for blessings and thanks. In addition, the values of kinship, solidarity and care, politeness and openness were found.
