  • 1 Jejak Warisan Pahang Pencetus Tamadun
    JEJAK WARISAN PAHANG PENCETUS TAMADUN PEMBANGUNAN MODAL INSAN HOLISTIK 1 Abd Jalil Borham [email protected] 1.0 Pendahuluan Menoleh ke belakang, melihat, menghimbau atau menjejaki sejarah adalah satu langkah bijak bagi memahami perkembangan lepas untuk diambil sebagai teladan dan sempadan. Membetul, melurus, dan meneguhkan segala apa yang wajar demi masa depan sesebuah bangsa dan negara. Sejarah memberi iktibar kepada masyarakat sejagat, kerana adanya hari ini membuktikan adanya semalam, dan adanya akan datang kerana adanya hari ini. Sememangnya tidak akan rugi jika sekali-kali menoleh ke belakang melihat masa lalu, merenungi zaman silam; apatah lagi melihat dan merenung untuk menimba pengalamannya. Sesebuah negara dan bangsa yang besar dan berdaulat memang mempunyai sejarah hebat bangsa dan negaranya. Namun begitu kehebatan sejarah bangsa dan negara itu tidak memberi sebarang makna dan erti jika negara dan bangsanya tidak mengambil peduli daripada pengalaman sejarah tersebut. Oleh itu sebagai bangsa yang berdaulat, tiap-tiap seorang daripadanya berkewajiban mengetahui sejarah, menghayati dan mengambil teladan serta iktibar daripada sejarah, lebih-lebih lagi sejarah negara sendiri. Melihat peri pentingnya sejarah negara ini dihayati, maka kertas kerja yang bertajuk “Jejak Warisan Negeri Pahang Darul Makmur” akan menyelusuri sejarah Pahang sejak awal dan seterusnya berusaha memasukkan Pahang dalam peta warisan dunia UNESCO. 2.0 Sejarah Pahang Sejarah Pahang bermula sebelum didirikan kerajaan Melayu Melaka, wilayah bahagian selatan Semenanjung Tanah Melayu semuanya termasuk dalam kawasan kerajaan Pahang. Orang Jawa Majapahit zaman dahulu menyebut Semenanjung Tanah Melayu sebagai Pahang sahaja. Pada awal kurun ke 16 Masihi, pada permulaan terdirinya kerajaan Melayu Johor, sempadan Pahang; di sebelahnya sampai ke Sedili Besar dan di utara sampai ke Terengganu; sempadan ke baratnya pula sampai ke Rembau, Selangor dan Perak.

  • Mahmud, Sultan of Riau and Lingga (1823-1864)
    MAHMUD, SULTAN OF RIAU AND LINGGA (1823-1864) Virginia Matheson1 The Text The life of Sultan Mahmud is described in the Tuhfat al-Nafίs (The Precious Gift), a Malay text which, according to its author, Raja Hajji Ali, is intended to relate the stories of the Malay and Bugis kings and their descendants. The work opens with a synopsis of the Sejarah Melayu and continues in more detail with the history of the kingdom of Johor. The dynamic figures in the Tuhfat are the Bugis princes, whose military skill and hard-line diplomacy won them high positions of state in Riau, Selangor, and the Borneo states of Sambas and Matan-Sukadana. A recurring theme in the first half of the Tuhfat, which covers the first half of the eighteenth century, is the conflict between the Minangkabau of Siak and the allied Bugis and Malay forces. These clashes occurred both in the Riau area and in Kedah, Selangor, Siak, and Borneo. The second half, which covers the mid-eighteenth century to 1864, portrays the developing hostility between Bugis and Malays on Riau and two major, Bugis-led confronta- tions with the Dutch at Malacca in 1756 and 1784. This last venture ended when the Dutch made a treaty with Riau in which the Sultan held his kingdom only as a fief of the Dutch East India Company (VOC), After 1818 a Dutch Resident was permanently stationed at Tanjong Pinang.2 The religious and cultural life of Riau, especially the island of Penyengat (the seat of the Bugis rulers) and of Lingga (the seat of the Malay rulers) did not seem to be at all influenced by the Dutch.
