Sago Sago is a starch extracted from the spongy centre, or pith, of various tropical palm stems, especially that of "Metroxylon sagu". It is a major staple food for the lowland peoples of New Guinea and the Moluccas, where it is called "saksak", "rabia" and "sagu". The largest supply of sago comes from Southeast Asia, particularly
Luwu Regency and East Lamasi with a total population of 91,885 in 2010. The most known culinary in Luwu is "kepurung" ("kapurung", "pugalu", "bugalu", "kapeda") which is made from sago plant ("Metroxylon sagu"). There is "dange" which is made from sago too. The other culinary is "pacco" and "bagea". Luwu is known as a fruit producer, such as durian, "langsat" ("Lansium parasiticum"), rambutan, and many others. Luwu is the origin of the longest epic in the world, La Galigo that created before Mahabharata. Some manuscript of I La Galigo is saved in European Museums, like in Leiden University Library.
