Each of society have their own organization of
arrangement. The arrangement in the Rumah Panjang is each family is separated
according to the social classes. The headman’s room is usually twice as wide as
others. The location of the room is usually in the middle of the house. For those
which is in upper-class families will have larger group than the other room
adjoin it on either side. On the other side, those two ends of the Rumah Panjang
are for the lower class. For example, The house of Maren Uma or headman is more
conspicuous by the extended and protruded front of the veranda of the room. Plus,
it is not allowed and very improper for other social classes of the Rumah
Panjang folks to build similar extension to their headman
