I've read in this article & Wikipedia that both Indonesian and Malay are topic prominent languages. It's a little difficult to explain, but in these languages, sentences are arranged to emphasize what's being talked about (the topic), & saying something about the topic (the comment). The topic tends to be more general than the subject, as it can also be a verb or object. Consider checking out the example sentences in the articles if you're confused! Makasih ^_^
