New royal again candidate for the highest govertment post

Again in one of the areas of Indonesia there is a royal, who is candidate for the highest governmentpost in an area, where his foreathers were before ruling as rajas.
This time it is Tengku Iklik Iljas Leube. He is candidate-bupati of the district of Aceh-Tengah
(Middle-Aceh) for 2012-2017.
His father is Tengku Haji Iljas Leube;a former minister of state and his father is Kejuruen
Sasa Ama-n Thalib, who was from 1929 the last ruling kejuruen,or raja of Linggö/Lingga.
That was a quite important principality in Middle-Acehin the Gayo-Alas area.
Before it was chosen by the sultan of Aceh to be one of his representatives in the area.

The kejuruen dynasty of Linggö is said to be related to the dynasty of the sibayaks of Lingga in the Karo-Batak area, has something to do with the Lingga part of the sultanate of Riau-Lingga and with the little political entity Linggi in Negri Sembilan/Malaysia.

Now he can function again a bit like this.
We will follow with interest this matter.

THE OFFICIAL END OF THE SULTANATE OF ACEH

Until now it was not really clear, when Holland officially had abolished the sultanate of Aceh.
The last ruling sultan of Aceh was Sultan Alauddin Mahmud Syah II, who ruled 1870-1874.
At that time the grip of the once powerfull sultanate on it's vasalstates of the areas outside the Aceh area and also the several so-called uleebalangships, or under-principalities in the actual Aceh area were also not so very strong under the sultan's rule any longer.
Maybe ca. 20% of the ca. 100 Aceh area sub-states only for real still saw the sultan of Aceh really as their paramount overlord.
At that time already Holland tried to seek a form of coöperation with Aceh,but that saw Holland a non-muslim state only as a state of non-believers, which for sure also under which rule you never must come.
Holland had to react to these counter-hostilities under Sultan Alauddin Mahmud Syah II.
This young sultan (born in 1858), who was in fact under the regency of the from Hadramaut/S-Yemen coming religious advisor Habib Abdul Rachman al-Zahr from july 1870 never could really rule himself.
When his palace was occupied and put down on 24-1-1874 they also found out that the minor-sultan with whom they had to sign an agreement of coöperation. had died a few days before.
They decided then to bring more stability to the situation in Aceh, where the sub-states not really followed the sultan anymore then and also because of the very hostile situations before, to take over the ruling responsibilities of the sultan's rule.
This was announced then also in Aceh.
The sub-rajas then not directly selected a new sultan. They first had to decide,if they thought maybe a bit otherwise then the Holand government.
At that time there were several royals, who were candidate to become the new sultan.
Then a young prince was chosen:the grandson of the predecessor of Sultan Alauiddin Mahmud Syah II.I do not think the before as a 16 year old boy-king died royal;Sultan Mahmud Syah II had not a child from his marriage with a certain Pocut Meurah.
The new sultan was Sultan Aluddin Muhammad Daud Syah;also a minor-sultan. He became a sultan first under theb regency of Tuangku Hasjim Bangta Muda (died 1897).
But Holland already had abolished the Aceh sultanate officially.
So in 2024 it will be 150 years ago, that the Aceh sultanate was abolished by Holland.
Sultan Daud;as he was for short known,was taken in captivity and sended to exile on Java from september 1903.There he died 6-2-1939.
At that time and afterwards a bit Holland was thinking of restore the Aceh sultanate also as part of a plan to restore several abolished sultanates and principalities in Indonesia.
(The Aceh dynasty later tried to realise that also under Japanese rule in World War II, without a real strong result).
It was not his crownprince Tuanku Ibrahim (died 1982), who could be the candidate,but a political experienced Aceh prince called Tuanku Mahmud.
The oldest son of crownprince Tuanku Ibrahim;Tuanku Abdul Djalil (very interested and active in researches of the history of Aceh) was not really active with a claim as the chief of the sultan's dynasty of Aceh later.
Tuanku Mirza Keumala, his son;spokesman of the international coördination organisation of rebuilding Aceh,etc. After the Tsunami natural distaster;is seen by some people as the symbol of the sultan's dynasty of Aceh.
The future will tell, how this sultan's dynasty later will find his precious role as at least an identification point of the Aceh people.

Limited authority for Yogya’s sultan in new bill

Limited authority for Yogya’s sultan in new bill

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Fri, 12/03/2010 9:01 PM | National

Limitations would be placed on the authority of Sultan Hamengkubuwono X should he accept the proposed status of parardhya as stated in the bill on Yogyakarta’s special status, an official says.

The daily work of the administration will be handled by an elected governor.

“[The sultan] will retain the privilege of handling cultural affairs and land matters. The sultan will [handle] all matters outside the administration, so his authority will be limited,” the Home Ministry’s director general of regional autonomy Djohermansyah Djohan said, as quoted by tribunnews.com.

Djohermansyah said administrative work would be done by the administration together with the city council. “But, the sultan’s status is higher [than the governor] since the elected governor will be installed by the sultan.”

He said the sultan could run for governor if he wanted to.

“[The sultan] can run in the race, but we’ve never seen a sultan anywhere running for election,” he said.

Djohermansyah said the draft bill would be completed by Monday of next week.

Sultan Serdang;the king of the historians of Indonesia;died.

His father Sultan Sulaiman Syariful Alamsyah of Serdang/East-Sumatra (ruling 1879-1946) was known as the constant rebel, but not as the enemy of the East-Indish Government.
He was known as a principal person,always having full love for his people.
He was succeeded by his brothers T. Rajah Anwar (died 1960) and Tuanku Abunawar (-2001);followed by the greatest historians of Indonesia of the modern time:
Tengku Luckman Sinar;since 22-6-2002 Sultan Bashar Syah II.
Because of being a diaberts he had heartproblems since medio 2010. A few days ago he went in to coma and after much praying by his family and many other people the Almighty and Loving God decided to bring him Home.
he is the symbol of the strict hardworking researches about the royal histories and cultures of Indonesia and what realistic roles it could play in the so-called modern Indonesia.
Until his death he was working hard form that goal.
Spending a lot of his own money to find usefull information and sharing it with others about these matters.
His last big project was making his father Sultan Sulaiman a national hero;not only a hero of the Indonesian freedom, but also because of the love for and dedication to his people.

Like his father he was always complete neutral in all matters.
Always supported by his wife Sultanan Daratul Qamar and his children,who all in their own way chared the love of the history and culture of the Melayu world.
For sure they will be his true succesors in this.

May the King of history of Indonesia of this time;
the Kings of Serdang Sultan Luckman Sinar Basahr Syah II;
has received his Eternal Peace now.

All thoughts go to his kerabat and the people of Serdang.

May as much as possible kings of Indonesia go to his funeral;
to this trully king of the revival of a meaning full royal touch in the so-called modern life of Indonesia.

Amin
