Untold History : The Lost Tartan of Johore

When HH Abu Bakar of Johore visited Queen Victoria in Balmoral Castle sometimes in 1880...




HH Albert Baker was awarded with Tartan Scottish.. = with special design REGISTERED under his name by Queen Victoria.


This is trademark for HH Abu BAkar and all his descendant... similarly Scottish Clan of Clan McLeod, McKenzie etc. di Scotland..  each of them has distinctive own Tartan... but.. this time... not a Scottish.. but Malay Sultan.

IN 1930

Again.. his eldest son. Sultan HH Major Ibrahim awarded the same Tartan, but with different designed = for his infamous Regiment of Johore Military Force.

Sultan Ibrahim was awarded Tartan no. 260.. = REGISTERED for him and his JMF  thus named  "Tartan Johore Regiment" afterward.


But pity... non of these Tartan was used by Johor Royalty.. let alone their infamous Regiment.

Untold History : Krown of Johor, JW Benson Vs Garard The Royal Jeweller







This is the works of JW Benson.. a watchmaker.. not a jeweller.. from London in 1885


It was inlaid with Diamonds, and other precious stones.. origin of those diamond is unknown, but.. some says from Brazil and Africa, some says it came down from Lord Allenborough, the owner of the cursed gold dining set owned by HH Albert Baker OR.. the famous legends said, it comes direct from the treasure of "Kota Perbendaharaan Permata" by orang asli sometimes in 1880's.. 



J.W Benson

Renown watchmaker amongst the British and Russian Aristocrat... worths million now in antiquity market... and one of his remarkable work still standing at Teluk Anson's Leaning Tower at Perak

How they influenced HH Albert Baker to make them made a Crown??? unknown..... The Johore State Crown is the only 1 crown made by J.W Benson.

What else did J.W Benson did????

I try to trace back relation of JW Benson and HH Albert Baker, then dapat tau... state medallions semuanay di reka dan dicetak oleh J.W Benson.. TERMASUK, butang2 pasukan JMF.. butang2 sahaje.. tidak termasuk pingat2.. sebab.. pingat2 state medallion dibuat oleh orang lain = Garard..




J.W Benson Vs. Royal Jeweller Gerard




The famous jeweller sought after by British, Russian, France aristocrat... and HH Albert Baker

He also made the Crown of Queen Victoria from Koh-I-Noor's diamond, which is known to have bloody curse

He is known to design, and made all the diamond jewelery for Sultanah Johor from the time of HH Albert Baker to the time of HH Ibrahim in 1960.

and he also made all the Johor State's Medallion from gold and silver inlaid with beautiful enamel.. from 1885 to 1960's

BUT,

He is not giving opportunity to made the Crown State of Johor... 

Why?????

the answer lies here :



find it.... heheheheh 

Untold History : Adik Sultan Abu Bakar jugak Sultan

ADIK SULTAN JOHOR



See the resemblance????

Bukan tu jee.. dorang ni pun same2 suke melawak.. same2 ada medal yg sama... . same2 melawat negara2 luar yang sama.. same2 jumpe pembesar luar yang sama...

It's like.. hubungan Sultan JOhor sekarang dengan Sultan Brunei.. very very very close..

BUT.. 100 YEARS AGO

Bukan dengan Brunei.. tapi dengan HAWAIIIIIIIIIIIII...

Itulah King David Kalakalao... good friends and buddy of HH Albert Baker.



Yes.. they trade jokes and humors... both of them were fit together.. that make them good friends like brothers


Sultan Johor HH Albert Baker melawat Hawaii pada awal 1881... then, Raja Hawaii King Kalakalao membalas lawatan Sultan Johor pada tahun yang sama ----- dan juga lagi sekali lawatan balasan pada tahun 1896 diketuai oleh HH Ibrahim pula..

Persamaan kedua2nye bukan hanye pada personality dan paras rupe dorang.. tapi.. anak2 dia pun dorang rase same :




Thus make them conclude dorang ni adik beradik (seperti yg dicatat oleh Timothy 1887)

BANTUAN HAWAII KEPADA JOHOR

Memeranjatkan.

Pada 1979, sebelum lawatannye ke JOhor.. King Kalakalao meminda Parlimen Hawaii dengan mengistiharkan yang Hawaii adalah Negari Melayu - dan diterima pakai sepanjang pemerintahannya.

Sepanjang lawatannye ke seluruh dunia pada 1881.. dia declare yang Hawaii adalah satu daripada negeri-negeri Melayu.. 


BANTUAN JOHOR KEPADA HAWAIII PULA

Semasa kakak King Kalakalao di timpa musibah politik.. Sultan Johor menawarkan Queen Lilioukalani untuk menubuhkan kerajaan diraja Hawaii di luar negeri (Johor).. tetapi ditolak kerana  tidak mahu meninggalkan Hawaii..

Lagi sekali, semasa lawatan ke-2 1896.. Sultan Johor menawarkan sokongan kepadanya.. tetapi lagi sekali ditolak dengan hormat. 




Queen Lilioukalani ni terkenal kerana pada portrait negara... dia memakai seutas rantai taring harimau yang dihadiahkan oleh Sultan Johor semasa lawatan King Kalakalao.

Pada King Kalakalao pula, Sultan JOhor menghadiahkan senaskah Al Quran bertinta emas.


Pada 1903.. Negeri Melayu (Hawaii) ini jatuh ketangan Amerika sehingga sekarang.

Untold History : Apa Jadi Pada Malam Kejatuhan Melaka?


1/3 sejarah melayu ditulis pada zaman kesultana melaka, 1/3 lagi masa di Johor lama and 1/3 lagi mase zaman Tun Seri Lanang.. 100 tahun selepas kejatuhan Melaka.

ada 3 rekod yg diketahui mengisahkan kejatuhan melaka:

1. Official rekod dari portuguese : Jatuh lepas berperang 15 hari 14 malam
2. Sejarah Melayu : Jatuh lepas berperang 3 hari and 2 malam
3. *Unknown chronicler : Jatuh lepas beperang 3 hari and 2 malam (similar dgn sejarah melayu)

*dikesan di library portugal, ditulis pada 1518, 7 tahun lepas kejatuhan melaka.. mungkin ditulis oleh askar portugis.. and translation dia oleh Royal Asiatic Society tahun 1902, reprinted 1911.:





Page ni plak mengisahkan.. kapal portugis cuba mendarat.. tapi.. tak boleh sebab askar melayu pakai meriam/senapang..

last2 dAlbuquerque berjaya mendarat > orang melayu mengamuk >Raja Alaudin charging dia punya gajah > 60 orang portugis mati >defense melayu bocor > portugis mara ke Masjid dipuncak bukit (St. Paul Church sekarang adalah bekas masjid) dan Istana raja Melaka >orang2 Melayu serang balik > portugis berundur ke kapal mereka, and banyak mati (Hari Pertama)

(Hari Kedua) Portugis mendarat semula, tetapi dihalang 700 askar Melayu dibawah Raja Alaudin,.. ramai Portugis mati > tapi askar Melayu berundur ke tapak2 kedai yg terbakar dikota melaka > Raja Alaudin menyerang lagi > Kemudian berundur semula

Laksamana Hang Nadim menyerang melalui sungai dari arah belakang tentera portugis > and portugis berundur semula ke kapal mereka

(Hari ketiga) ni yang pelik sikit ni


Portugis mendarat lagi skali... tapi pelik.. semua tentera sultan tiada..

now.. lihat catatan2 ni:

- portugis gagal mendarat, and gagal secure holding position.. semua retreat balik pegi kapal mereka
- portugis berjaya membakar masjid dan istana.. tapi gagal mendudukinya
- portugis hanya berjaya maju dikawasan bandar dan perlabuhan melaka.. tidak sampai ke bukit cina
- askar melayu menang perang.. tapi mereka berundur??????

kenapa??? ape yang sebenarnya terjadi pada malam itu??

Untold History : Lost Continents of Luca Antara

The unknown continent of Luca Antara was 1st mention by Raja Permaisura of Damut (?) kepada Raja Pahang...




Ini adalah transcribe surat Raja Permaisura kepada Raja Pahang... kept by Royal Portuguese Courts.. He described that, the inhabitants of Luca Antara was :

- Berwajah jawa, tapi speaking tak paham
- Berambut panjang hingga ke bahu
- Membawa tukul emas
- Memakai keris bertahtakan permata
- Suka laga ayam

So.. description only point out to = the other part of Malays's distance coursin.. in lost continents.

Portuguese Connection 

in 1601.. Pedro De Calvaheas melapurkan dari Melaka yang.. dia belayar pergi ke Luca Antara, dengan bantuan kemuda Raja Permaisura... belayar selama 12 hari dari Balambuan to south, sehingga ke Luca Antara

Pedro De Calvahese melapurkan pulak :




- Existing considerable amounts of golds and other precious products
- Climate nya sejuk

Setelah discovernya.. dia ditugaskan pulak describe lokasi ini kepada Manuel Gerindinho De Eridia.. untuk ditakluk

HOWEVER

The Expidition never took place.  Eridia sakit.. but he instructed few surveys to took place = all ended up in vein and lost at sea, Portuguese abandoned this mission till succession of Dutch into Malacca.. "Luca Antara" has never been discovered since then...

PLAUSIBLE FACTS

Most historian try to emulate that = Luca Antara is the island of AUSTRALIA... it is widely known and recognized as one..

BUT....

Base on those and other few historical evidence = Luca Antara WAS INHABITED BY MALAYS in customs, in appearence.. they had Kings

Let say..

Luca Antara = is Australia.... SO.. native of Australia is Malays.. not aborigines.. AND... climate Ostolia is panas.. bukan sejuk

Think again........
