Digital storytelling is a kind of strategy in telling story which uses computer application so that it will attract children’s interest to listen and to read the Folklore which is packed in the form of digital storytelling, because it is equipped with audio, pictures, music, and text which are packed in such a way which is delivered through digital multimedia. Based on the data analysis, there are five pantang larang in Coastal Malaysian myth in West Borneo, including: 1) pantang larang when entering a forest, 2) going out of the house when hot rain, 3) laughing at a cat when it is raining, 4) rejecting invitation for having a meal, and 5) cutting down Jawi-Jawi trees and killing crocodiles. These pantang larang have a function as a mean to educate children to obey their family, cherish others, and love nature. Next, pantang larang also has a meaning for society in order that children have attitudes of discipline, respectful, sharing with others, and do not destroy nature. The society of Coastal Malaysian in West Borneo assumes that pantang larang has a special position.
