The eight wisdoms as stated by Darsa (1998) are as follows: Animan (gentle), Ahiman (firm), Mahiman (broad-minded, Lagiman (agile / nimble / skilled), Prapti (right on target), Prakamya (tenacious / diligent) , Isitwa (honest), Wasitwa (open to criticism) This Sundanese leadership figure has weaknesses, because openness and admiration are one of the obstacles that make it difficult for Sundanese people to compete at the national level with Javanese ethnicities.
