Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand

Other reason

In Indonesian it's called Kata Sandang or article before noun, the direct translation to English might be "the".
Additionally, "Sang" commonly connotes positive or honored object, e.g. Sang Raja / The King, Sang Pencipta / The Creator, Sang Pemimpin / The Leader, Sang Juara / The Winner. In most case Sang is usually followed with noun.
While "Si" can be used more freely. Si pengirim surat / The sender (of the letter), Si kura-kura cepat / The fast turtle, Si buta / the blind (man). Si can be followed with both adjective and noun.
