| 词条 | Haji, Raja |
| 释义 | Haji, Raja Malaysian statesman died June 1784, Malacca Buginese soldier and statesman under whose leadership Buginese adventurers spread throughout the Malay Peninsula. The power of the Buginese (a people originally from the southern Celebes) dated from the early 1700s, when Buginese adventurers, cut off from their homeland by the Dutch, established a dynasty in the Malay state of Selangor, became the power behind the throne of the state of Johore, and were powerful influences in the states of Kedah and Perak. Raja Haji took part in military actions in Sumatra and in 1770 seized and occupied the capital of the north Malay state of Kedah. Seven years later he inherited the powerful office of under-king of Johore (Johor) and proceeded with the development of the port of Riau (south of modern Singapore) as a major trade centre, seriously undermining the economic position of Dutch-controlled Malacca. Conflicts with the Dutch soon arose, and in 1784 Raja Haji attacked Malacca. The arrival of Dutch reinforcements was decisive, however, and Raja Haji was killed in battle. |
