people.Tanean Lanjhangby itself will shape the lifestyle ofthe Madurese people
from generation to generation, because the values taught in the life of the Tanean
Lanjhangtraditioncontinuetotransformtothenextgenerationasthevalueofmo-
rality. Thus, this article will describe the ethics of theMadurese community based
on implied values and philosophies or proverbs in the Tanean Lanjhang tradition
which are still taught in the life of  the Madurese people.The ethics referred to inthis discussion are descriptive ethics which only describe moral behavior in a
broad sense. Descriptive ethics is only describing and does not provide an assess-
ment of whether a certain behavior can be accepted or should be rejected. This de-
scriptive ethics discussion of the Tanean Lanjhang tradition will by itself describe
the personality or identity of the Madurese people.
