  • From Po-Li to Rajah Brooke: Culture, Power and the Contest for Sarawak
    From Po-li to Rajah Brooke: Culture, Power and the Contest for Sarawak John Henry Walker International and Political Studies,University of New South Wales Canberra, Australia *Corresponding author Email address: [email protected]. ABSTRACT This article explores Sarawak’s remoter past from the emergence of an early Indianised state at Santubong until the accession as Rajah of Sarawak of James Brooke. Through an analysis of Sarawak Malay oral histories, the Negara-Kertagama, Selsilah Raja Raja Sambas and the Selsilah Raja RajaBerunai, the article confirms and extends IbLarsens’s findings, that extensive periods of Sambas’s rule over Sarawak has been overlooked by successive scholars. The article also explores the ways in which Malay oral and traditional histories can be used in western historiographic traditions to illuminate the remoter past. Keywords:Indianisation, Sarawak, Sambas, Brunei, DatuMerpati, Sultan Tengah Prior to the expansion of its meaning in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the term ‘Sarawak’ referred to a negri(country) which encompassed the Sarawak and Lundu River basins, and the coast and adjacent islands between the mouths of the Sarawak and Lundu Rivers, an area known in the scholarly literature as ‘Sarawak Proper’, to distinguish it from the more expansive Sarawak which we know today.1 AlthoughSarawak achieved its present boundaries only with the transfer of Lawas from the British North Borneo Company in January 1905,2 it has a long and contested, if intermittently documented, history. In 2012, Ib Larsen suggested that large parts of present day Sarawak had been ruled for significant periods of time by Sambas rather than by Brunei.

When the Veil and the Vote Collide: Enhancing Muslim Women's Rights Through Electoral Reform Amber Rose Maltbie, Esq.* I. INTRODUCTION In the last two decades, centuries-old monarchies in the Middle East have begun to shift toward more open societies by integrating democratic rights into their laws.' In an exciting move by a number of these parliaments and monarchs, women have been granted suffrage throughout the region.2 Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait, and, to a limited extent, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), have each granted suffrage to women since the beginning of the Twenty-First Century.3 With this grant of suffrage, these fledgling democracies are faced with drafting and implementing laws for the administration of free and fair elections for the first time. A number of challenges mark this transition, including the task of fully incorporating the electoral rights of women who wear face-covering veils for religious reasons, while guarding against the threat of voter fraud.4 This problem of the "vote and the veil"' colliding at the polling booth occurs in two unique circumstances, both related to voter identification requirements.

Linguistic Society of the Philippines Special Monograph Issue, Number 35 The Philippine Journal of Linguistics is the official publication of the Linguistic Society of the Philippines. It publishes studies in descriptive, comparative, historical, and areal linguistics. Although its primary interest is in linguistic theory, it also publishes papers on the application of theory to language teaching, sociolinguistics, etc. Papers on applied linguistics should, however, be chiefly concerned with the principles which underlie specific techniques. Articles are published in English, although papers written in Filipino, an official language of the Philippines, will occasionally appear. Since the Linguistic Society of the Philippines is composed of members whose paramount interests are the Philippine languages, papers on these and related languages are given priority in publication. This does not mean, however, that the journal will limit its scope to the Austronesian language family.

Bharrat Jagdeo General Editor: David Dabydeen Consulting Editor: Ian McDonald Director of Research: Letizia Gramaglia iii iv SERIES PREFACE Modern Guyana came into being, in the Western imagination, through the travelogue of Sir Walter Ralegh, The Discoverie of Guiana (1595). Ralegh was as beguiled by Guiana’s landscape (“I never saw a more beautiful country…”) as he was by the prospect of plunder (“every stone we stooped to take up promised either gold or silver by his complexion”). Ralegh’s contemporaries, too, were doubly inspired, writing, as Thoreau says, of Guiana’s “majestic forests”, but also of its earth, “resplendent with gold.” By the eighteenth century, when the trade in Africans was in full swing, writers cared less for Guiana’s beauty than for its mineral wealth. Sugar was the poet’s muse, hence the epic work by James Grainger The Sugar Cane (1764), a poem which deals with subjects such as how best to manure the sugar cane plant, the most effective diet for the African slaves, worming techniques, etc.
