EVOLUTION OF MALACCA ... PART 1

EVOLUTION OF MALACCA ... PART 2


PORTUGUESE ERA
1511 - 1641



Porta De Santiago


Man in tight - Afonso de Albuquerque

Don't play play.... any person who studied Malaysian History during secondary school will definitely remember his name. One may not know what he did in the past, one may not even know how to spell his name... but no one can forget how much fun we had fooling pronouncing his name.

That is one hell of abuquekquek...

108 years of Parameswara legacy collapsed in just 10 days, when it was under the command of Sultan Mahmud Shah.

Thought the malays have some chinese kung fu master backing up their back, unfortunately not even "No Shadow Kick" or "Buddha Palm" move can beat the crap of Portuguese Weapon Of Mass destruction called gun powder and big ass cannon power.

Portuguese and Britain has been long term alliances since 1373. This one strong powderful super force mighty morphing power ranger.

Portuguese Man-O-War .... most dangerous Portuduese.... hehehe

1513: Patih Unus from Jawa, attack Malacca but failed.

1518-1519: Sultan Mahmud Shah surrounded Malacca but got ass kicked back into deep jungle.

1523: Sultan Mahmud failed again on second wave attack.

1526: Portugal send a whole armada of reinforcement they get rid of Sultan Mahmud Shah forces for good. Sulman Mahmud died in 1528.

1537: Acheh for the first time attacked Malacca.


Johor join in the struggling for power and politics in Malacca.

Malacca triangle witnesses a fight between Johor, Portuguese and Acheh, fighting for the right to rules Malacca. At time Johor and Portuguese join forces to get rid of Acheh and there are time Johor backstabbing Portuguese by attacking their full force from behind.

My god... that sound more like my ex-employers.

Finally Acheh wont the war, merely for 8 months only in 1628. Before the Portuguese turn around and kick the tsunami out of Acheh - 8 months later.
