text: Mr Blah was also expected by the Ang and gaonbura of Pungkung who is called Man-wang. He told me that he was an Ang-yang-ba Ang and that his son also belonged to the Ang-yang-ba clan although the mother is not an Ang woman but a second Ben wife. The dobashis denied this. Apparently Man-wang is only a small Ang from the Ang-ha-ba clan.
