Pasundan translates to “the land of the Sundanese”. The Sundanese are an ethnic group native to the western part of the Indonesian island of Java. They number approximately 40 million, and are the second most populous of all the nation’s ethnicities. The name Sunda derives from the word “Su” which means goodness. Sunda also means light, cleanness, bright, and white.
