This study discusses the detection of sarcasm found in several speeches. The objectivity of this study is the utterances of Megawati Soekarnoputri and Sukmawati Soekarnoputri speech. The data source for this study is four video samples as primary data and three printed text as secondary data. In this study, seven types of sarcasm from Mike Lamb are used as the foundation for the objective resolution of this study.

The results got from this study are that the speakers detected 3 of 7 types of sarcasm, referring to Mike Lamb's theory of sarcasm.
