Sultan Alauddin 'raja terbuang'Oleh Mohd Azis Ngah
azis@bharian.com.my
Peribadinya yang hebat serta kewibawaannya tidak disenangi pembesar istana
MEMBICARAKAN sejarah kesultanan Melayu Melaka (1400-1511), pasti akan mengheret sama Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah yang dianggap sebagai tokoh kontroversi dan sensasi.
Berdasarkan beberapa sumber Melayu seperti Sulalat al-Salatin atau Sejarah Melayu dalam pelbagai versi, Sultan Alauddin adalah seorang Raja Melaka yang hidup pada zaman kegemilangan kerana ketika era pemerintahannya, kekayaan datang mencurah-curah ke Melaka dari seluruh dunia.
Ketokohan dan keperibadian baginda sering disamakan dengan kepimpinan Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz yang keluar waktu malam meninjau kehidupan rakyatnya.
Sayangnya, baginda memerintah Melaka selama 11 tahun saja dan mangkat pada usia terlalu muda. Makam baginda terletak di atas sebuah anak bukit di tebing sebelah kiri Sungai Pagoh di Kampung Raja, Pagoh, Muar, Johor.
Istimewanya makam ini kerana ia adalah satu-satunya makam Diraja Melaka yang terselamat ketika berlaku 憄embersihan

More to Muar than meets the eye
2009/04/01
           Sim Bak Heng            
            
                                                 
            
                        
            
            Datuk Jaafar Mohamad, Johor抯 first Menteri Besar from 1882 to 1919.        
                        IT is always interesting to know how a place derives its name.
        
The Sungai Muar ferry service played an important role in the development of Muar.

A large crowd gathered at the opening of the first bridge across Sungai Muar.
           Muar, often called a pensioners' town, got its name by virtue of its location in an estuary, or muara in Malay.  
   
   Before it was named Muar, it was called Teluk Dalam, or Inner Bay.

   Teluk Dalam and muara have geographical meanings, as both are located between land and sea.

           Muar's history is said to have started much earlier than the Malacca sultanate.

A 1361 record shows that a Buddhist monk in the Majapahit palace namedPrapanca wrote a poem, Nagarakertagama, which recorded the history ofthe Majapahit empire in the Malay peninsular.

   The king was Hayam Wuruk and his prime minister was Gajah Mada (1350-1389). Muar was one of the states in this empire.

Another historical account states that Parameswara, the founder of theMalacca empire, had built a wooden fort at Pagoh in Ulu Muar, after hisexile from Temasik, before going to Malacca.

In Malayhistorical literature, Temasik, which was then ruled by Sultan IskandarSyah, was defeated by the Majapahit empire.

The sultan movedto Muar where he opened two areas near Sungai Muar called Biawak Busukand built a fort named Kota Buruk. He eventually moved to Malacca andbuilt the empire.

Muar is home to the tomb of Sultan AlauddinRiayat Shah (1477-1488), the only existing tomb of the Malaccasultanate. Other tombs were destroyed during the Portuguese occupationof Malacca.

Muar played a role in resisting the Portugueseoccupation of Malacca in 1511. In response to attacks from thePortuguese fleet, the Bentayan fort was built by the sultan of Malaccato repel seaborne invasions.

   A Portuguese fort named Fortaleza de Muar was built in Bentayan to defend the colony against the Dutch and Acehnese attacks.

Today, Muar is the royal town of northern Johor. It was also known asBandar Maharani (Empress Town), a name given by Sultan Abu Bakar in1884.

It was the only town in Malaysia that had its ownrail-link, known as the Muar State Railways, operating just four yearsafter the country's first railway line from Taiping to Port Weld wasinaugurated in 1885.

   The railway operated from 1889 to 1925, linking Jalan Sulaiman in Muar and Sungai Pulai for  22.5km.

There was a plan in 1916 to extend the line to Batu Pahat but theproject didn't take off due to financial and geographical constraints.

   The railway provided a means of transportation for people and produce.

   However, its prominence  dwindled after the opening of Jalan Abdul Rahman, which linked Muar and Parit Jawa,  in 1918.

   The only relic of the railways  today is  the display of a MSR locomotive in Taman Tanjung Emas.

Another important mode of transportation was the ferry and boats forpeople on both sides of Sungai Muar, until the Sultan Ismail bridge wasbuilt in 1909.

   Muar is a treasure trove of old buildings.  

   The Muar Royal Customs and Excise Office built in 1909 in Jalan Maharani is an important landmark

   The Sultan Ibrahim Jamek Mosque in Jalan Petri has a minaret in its backyard and a signboard with Chinese characters.

Another landmark is the Sultan Abu Bakar building (built in 1921),which is a replica of the Istana Besar of Johor Baru, now the JohorRoyal Museum.

Many shophouses are pre-war buildings withneo-classical facades, and Jalan Meriam has many colonial-styledresidential buildings.

   Muar today is known for its furniture industry and  food.

   The furniture industry has provided jobs for locals, while the food attracts people from near and far.

So the next time you visit Muar, check out the historical buildings tofeed your appetite for culture and don't forget the food to satisfyyour stomach.

Some of the other sites worth visiting are theoddly-named Biawak Busuk (Smelly Monitor Lizard), Kota Buruk (RuinedFort) and Sungai Mati (Dead River).

Origins behind the names of these streets                   DatukAbdul Rahim Ramli served as the Johor state secretary from 1985 to1993. He is now the Secretary of the Royal Court and Dato' PenghuluIstiadat Istana Johor.
        
The clock tower and the Maharani Square costingRM1.9 million is one of the beautification projects of the MuarMunicipal Council
        WHEN I was a school boy in Muar,the names of streets other than the street where I lived did not meananything to me. Now, however, I feel duty bound to pass on someknowledge of the origins of the names of the streets. I am proud of myhometown and make regular visits to the place after my retirement.

Most street names in Muar are taken from the names of the Johorroyalty. It is so because Sultan Abu Bakar and his son, Sultan Ibrahim,had wanted to honour their kinsmen.

  Perhaps the names chosen for Muar were also to reflect the status of a town named for a queen.

           Sultan Abu Bakar had named the district capital as Bandar Maharani after his consort, Maharani Fatimah, in 1884.

The names of the sultan's siblings and their offspring were also etchedin history in appreciation of their loyalty and service. They, in fact,had taken the lesser royal title of Ungku in deference to him as theruler. They had played an important, if not an equal part, in theopening and development of Johor.

   Jalan Abdul Rahman was named after Ungku Abdul Rahman, the head of the State Council, and who once acted as Regent.

Ungku Abdul Majid, the Commissioner of Muar, had Jalan Majidi namedafter him. Jalan Khalidi was named after Ungku Mohamad Khalid, thePresident of the Religious Council.

  Jalan Ibrahim in Muar was named after Sultan Abu Bakar's only son, who later succeeded him.

Jalan Mariam (now spelt as Meriam) was named after his eldest daughter.Jalan Sultanah takes after the title of Sultanah Fatimah, the firstsultanah to be crowned in 1886. The services of his nephews in thedevelopment of the state were also given due recognition.

   Jalan Sulaiman was named after Ungku Sulaiman bin Daud, the first Resident Commissioner there in 1884.

This road used to have three coffee shops selling satay for breakfast.The Javanese satay sellers occupied part of the shops.

Theywere affectionately known as Wak Sentano and Wak Sapari. I believe Muaris the only town in Johor that serves satay for breakfast.

Myfirst experience of having satay was when as a child in 1946, my fatherbrought me along to collect his salary and stopped by a coffee shopwhere Wak Sapari sold his wares. Even to this day, I make a bee line tothis shop at No.11 Jalan Sulaiman every time I return to Muar.

The business is now run by Sapari's third generation grandchildren. Thesatay is usually accompanied with a bowl of lodeh (chunks of ketupat,and vermicelli drowned in coconut gravy).

The other nephews whohave roads named after them were Ungku Daud (Jalan Daud), ResidentCommissioner from 1922 to 1926, Ungku Ali (Jalan Ali), Ungku Othman(Jalan Othman), otherwise known as Othman London and educated togetherwith Datuk Seri Amar DiRaja Abdul Rahman Andak in London, and UngkuOmar Ahmad (Jalan Omri).

Ungku Omar, who was the son ofSultan Abu Bakar's sister Ungku Zahrah, was also known as UngkuPengadil as he was the magistrate there in 1895.

Then, therewas Jalan Abdullah, named after Major Datuk Abdullah Jaafar, theResident Commissioner (from 1906 to 1912) and who became the MenteriBesar in 1926.

Jalan Abdullah used to have the Asiatic cinemahall that screened Hindustani (now Bollywood) movies. It also showedWestern reruns. Tickets were priced at 40 cents for second class seats.The cinema hall has now been converted into shopping lots.

The glory days  of Muar State Railway            Datuk Abdul Rahim Bin Ramli        BACKin the late 1800s, Maharaja Abu Bakar encouraged the migration ofsettlers from Java and other districts to Muar. The choice area wasPadang, an area that extended from the town to Parit Jawa. The settlers-- a mix of Malays and Javanese -- were a hardworking agriculturalpopulation, cultivating coconuts, areca nuts, tapioca, fruits andvegetables and later rubber. Those who settled by the sea becamefishermen.
        
The Muar State Railway was a transport monopoly and a profitable enterprise during its heyday.
A Muar State Railway locomotive is preserved   at  Dataran Tanjung Emas to serve as a reminder of its glory days.
        The primary mode of transport forcarrying their produce then was waterborne, using the many canals whichthey had dug for drainage purposes.

Small jetties wereconstructed at the coastal areas of Parit Jawa and Parit Bakar as thesettlers wanted to have a more efficient means of transport to the portof Muar.

Maharaja Abu Bakar, who desired to make Muar a showpiece of his administration, had later introduced a light railway to Padang.

        The railway was a continuation of his ambition of having a wooden railway in Johor Baru that unfortunately did not take off.

In1888, he appointed the firm of Paterson and Simons of Singapore, underthe supervision of Public Works and Survey director Walter F. Garland,to construct a light railway of 76cm gauge between Bandar Maharani andPadang.

After a few months, the contract was however withdrawn due to unsatisfactory work performance.

In 1889, the government took over the project and awarded the contract to Messrs Swan and Maclaren.

Malayand Javanese labourers were hired for the rail construction. The tracksspanning a distance of 8km to Parit Bakar were completed in 1890. Therails were imported from Jones, Burton & Co, London.

The first locomotive was imported from the United States.

Originally,the railway consisted of seven goods wagon, two covered wagons and twopassenger wagons. Maximum speed was 20km per hour.

The railwaywas known as Keretapi Kerajaan Muar (Muar State Railway). Itssuperintendent was J.C. Campbell, a former manager of SelangorGovernment Railway.

There were two station masters, one in Bandar Maharani and the other in Parit Jawa.

Theforeman and fitter were expatriates. The other 16 workers wererecruited from among the Malays and Javanese. Notable among them wasIsmail Bachuk, the assistant superintendent and manager who went on tobecome the commissioner of police and later the state secretary.

In 1913, the railway line was extended by 5km to Parit Jawa, and a further 6km to Sungei Pulai in 1914.

Theterminal and workshop at Bandar Maharani was at Tangga Batu, with fourmain stations at Parit Bakar, Parit Jawa, Parit Pechah and SungeiPulai, and eight temporary stations along the way.

It had fiveservices daily between Bandar Maharani-Sungei Pulai-Bandar Maharani.Three locomotives were used between 1890 and 1915.

In 1912, anew locomotive from Munalet Engine Works London was acquired forpassenger coaches, which consisted of one saloon-class, two-secondclass and four third-class coaches. A notable feature of the servicewas free transport for students at the Government English School.

TheMuar State Railway was a transport monopoly and was a profitableventure. Revenue in 1911 was $42,000 and increased to $100,000 in 1916.Business was so good, there was a proposal in 1916 to acquire twoAmerican locomotives and extend the lines to Batu Pahat.

However,the plan was overambitious. The area after Parit Jawa was soft peat androck fill from nearby Bukit Mor had no effect on the soil. It provedcostly and was stopped in 1917. The drains along the tracks were notmaintained properly, causing the flooding of smallholdings.

Timberbridges were not repaired due to the high cost of timber. Mechanicalmaintenance was negligible as staff had no training although they hadthe experience. Level crossings in the town were lacking. A proposal toshift the main terminal to Jalan Arab fell through. Welfare of workersincluding accommodation was not looked into. All these and the slownessof the train which stopped at all stations did not augur well for therailway.

Another significant factor affecting the railway was the decline in the price of rubber in the middle of 1918.

Thefinal blow was the extension of Jalan Abdul Rahman -- a coastal roadparallel to the railway from Bandar Maharani to Parit Jawa -- in 1918.Farmers preferred to use it as it saves time and was more convenient.The monopoly of Muar State Railway was finally broken and in 1921, therailway ceased operations.

The railway tracks were removed andreplaced with a road known as Jalan Temenggong Ahmad, named after thestate commissioner of Muar from 1929 to 1936.

A locomotive of the Muar State Railway now stands at Dataran Tanjung Emas as a reminder of its glory days.
