Meh Terai Kuiz Sejarah Darjah 1 ; Sapa tere? Orang Suluk atau Malaysia?

 

Sememangnya rumpun Melayu kepulauan Nusantara ini terbahagi kepada pelbagai suku etnik. Jika mengikut sesetengah kajian, rumpun Melayu ini amat luas  dan telah lama mempunyai peradaban dan ilmu pengetahuan yang tersendiri (mengambil kira dari era sebelum kedatangan Islam) merangkumi dari Mynmar, Ayuthia (Thailand), Siem Reap & Champa (Cambodia), Selatan Filipina, Brunei, kepulauan Borneo, Kepulauan Indonesia hingga ke Malaysia. Sejarah juga telah banyak mencatatkan pertembungan-pertembungan sesama suku etnik Melayu yang ada.

 

 

Termasuklah pertembungan terkini, etnik Melayu dari rumpun Malaysia dan Tausug Suluk dari kepulauan Sulu. Berbalik kepada sejarah, siapakah yang lebih hebat?

 

Tidak dinafikan sejarah telah membuktikan betepa hebatnya orang-orang Suluk berperang. Mereka telah berperang dengan Sepanyol yang dipanggil Perang 300 Tahun pada era 1500 dan Amerika pada era 1900 lagi.Turut diakui sebagai 'seafarer' (ahli pelayaran) yang hebat.

 

Manakala kehebatan rumpun Melayu di Malaysia pula banyak terarah semasa era 1500 ke 1800 semasa kemuncak kegemilangan Kesultanan Melayu Melaka menentang Portugis dan Belanda sehinggalah kemasukan Inggeris ke Melaka melalui perjanjian Inggeris-Belanda pada 1824. Juga terkenal dengan keberanian berperang dan ilmu tempur yang tinggi sewaktu melawan penjajah serta turut diakui sebagai ahli pelayaran yang hebat dengan pengetahuan membina kapal-kapal 'jong' untuk pelayaran jauh (yang turut dikagumi oleh orang-orang Eropah).

 

So, dari sejarahnya kira Tausug Suluk dengan Melayu Malaysia dari segi 'kegangsteran' dan 'langsi' dalam begadoh dan beramuk kira seri lar. Tang brutal korek-korek biji mata, penggal kepala, kelar-kelar badan yang tu bukan Tausug Suluk je yang buat, Kominis Malaya (Bintang Tiga), Viet Cong ngan Khmer Rouge pon dah lama buat.

 

Tapi kaum kerabat Suluk telah berjaya membunuh Ferdinand Magellan di Mactan. Ahli pelayaran bebangsa Portugis yang sebegitu hebat tetapi akhirnya mati di tangan orang-orang laut Suluk. Kalau cenggitu sudah pasti geng Suluk ni lagi hebat?  Kjap, wait seminit...Selain Magellan dan geng Suluk ni, ada lagi seorang ahli pelayaran yang amat hebat. Dia tidak mati ditangan Kerabat Suluk tadi, dia kekal dan dialah yang telah meneruskan akhirnya menamatkan pelayaran termahsyur dunia itu. Yang ni kita ada up sket lar..sori ekk, kita up banyak larrr brader!! Ahli pelayaran laut luas yang tesohor didunia itu adalah orang Melayu Malaysia!!

 

 

 

Ferdinand Magellan: the first to go around the world?

Ferdinand Magellan. Repro ID: PU2325 ©National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, LondonColumbus landed in the 'new world' of the Americas in 1492. Explorers coming after him in the 16th century brought the news to Europe that the Pacific Ocean lay beyond the western coast of America. Suddenly people began to understand that they could reach the East by sailing westwards from Europe.

Who was Magellan?

Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese sailor. He wanted to try to reach south-east Asia, where many spices grew, by sailing westwards across the Atlantic Ocean. As his own king wouldn't finance the voyage, he got the help he needed from Spain instead. He hoped to find a passage through South America so that he could sail all the way from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

Did Magellan get home safely?

No, for he was killed in a fight with islanders in the Philippines. He died on 27 April 1521 on Mactan Island, Cebu, the Philippines.


Death in the Philippines

 

[Heading northwest, the crew reached the equator on 13 February 1521. On 6 March they reached the Marianas and Guam. Magellan called Guam the "Island of Sails" because they saw a lot of sailboats. They renamed it to "Ladrones Island" (Island of Thieves) because many of Trinidad's small boats were stolen there. On 17 March Magellan reached the island of Homonhon in the Philippines, with 150 crew left. Members of his expedition became the first Spaniards to reach the Philippine archipelago, but they were not the first Europeans.^[20]

 

Magellan was able to communicate with the native tribes because his Malay interpreter, Enrique, could understand their languages. Enrique was indentured by Magellan in 1511 right after the colonization of Malacca and was at his side during the battles in Africa, during Magellan's disgrace at the King's court in Portugal and during Magellan's successful raising of a fleet. They traded gifts with Rajah Siaiu of Mazaua^[21] who guided them to Cebu on 7 April.

 

Rajah Humabon of Cebu was friendly towards Magellan and the Spaniards; both he and his queen Hara Amihan were baptized as Christians. Afterward, Rajah Humabon and his ally Datu Zula convinced Magellan to kill their enemy, Datu Lapu-Lapu, on Mactan. Magellan had wished to convert Lapu-Lapu to Christianity, as he had Humabon, a proposal of which Lapu-Lapu was dismissive. On the morning of 27 April 1521, Magellan sailed to Mactan with a small attack force. During the resulting battle against Lapu-Lapu's troops, Magellan was hit by a bamboo spear and later surrounded and finished off with other weapons]

 

So although he had masterminded the first expedition to sail around the world, he did not complete the voyage himself. In fact, the first person to sail around the world was a Malaysian, who had travelled back to Europe with Magellan many years earlier. Later, he accompanied Magellan as an interpreter on the circumnavigation.
