The series describes the life of the ten-year-old boy Mat, who lives in a traditional kampung with his parents Yap and Yah and his grandparents . Mat experiences many adventures at home, at school, in the jungle and on trips to the city, always accompanied by his friends Bo and Tak and his younger sister Ana. Supporting characters are Mats strict but fair teacher Mrs. Hew and his secret crush Normah. A constant theme of the series is the tension between traditional Malaysian village life and modern, western-oriented city life, each of which has different advantages. It is also noteworthy that most of the episodes are divided into two parts, in which a common topic (e.g. cinema ) is commented first more from the perspective of the children, then more from the perspective of the adults.
