  1. Oil reserves in Southeast Asia

    Southeast Asia is a rich source of hydrocarbon resources natural gas and petroleum . Brunei , Vietnam and Malaysia , in addition to Indonesia , benefit from the latest trend, although recent attention has been drawn inexplicably to the Southeast Asian and China seas for their oil rich reserves, knowledge of this region s capabilities has been largely held for more than a century. History The historical records of Southeastern Asian oil started in 1883, when a Dutch planter A.J. Zijiker was exploring the exterior of Sumatra , an Indonesian Island when he was struck by a tropical storm . Seeking shelter on nearby island, Zijiker witnessed a Sumatra n local watchman light a fire from wet twigs using a bamboo torch ref Michael Morrow Bulletin of Concerned Asian Scholars, Vol. 7, 1975 ref . Naturally curious, the planter inquired about the burning capabilities of the torch and was soon after taken to a small pond filled with the black fluid. In the year following, Zijiker commenced the drilling of the now well known Telega Tila oil well in Northern Sumatra . It was from this well that Royal Dutch Shell was formed. It is generally understood that Zijilker s endeavor and others similar to it catalyzed the modern petroleum industry in Southeast Asia and connected the region s resources to the world s energy markets. Though off shore drilling was not a practiced first used in South Eastern and in China , it reared its head after petroleum drilling in the Gulf of Mexico proved to a highly lucrative endeavor in the years following World War II .

  1. Spread of Islam in Southeast Asia

    The evidence available on the spread of Islam in Southeast Asia is reliant on tombstones and scattered evidence. Significant examples include a Muslim tombstone found in Champa dating from early 11th century, an Islamic tombstone of Gresik Java dated late 11th century, the Trengganu stone dated 1303, records of Muslim settlers in Majapahit and a Muslim trading colony in Northern Malaya and of rulers in Pasai converting to Islam in 1282. By the end of the 15th century, Islam was firmly established in the Malay Peninsula , Sumatra , and northern coasts of Java , Brunei and North Borneo . It was also penetrating the Spice Islands e.g. the Moluccas and the Sulu Archipelago . Spread of Islam before the rise of Malacca In the 11th century, a turbulent period occurred in the history of Malay Archipelago, the Chola Navy crossed the ocean and attacked the Srivijaya kingdom of Sangrama Vijayatungavarman, Kadaram Kedah , an important forted city in the Malayan peninsula was sacked and the king was taken captive. Along with Kadaram, Pannai in Sumatra and Malaiyur Melayu in the Malayan peninsula were attacked too. Soon after that, the king of Kedah Phra Ong Mahawangsa became the first ruler to abandon the traditional Hindu faith, and converted to Islam with the Sultanate of Kedah established in year 1136. Samudera Pasai converted to Islam in the year 1267, and many other rulers follow suit. Islam was mainly confined to Sumatran ports before the rise of Malacca. Evidence of the presence of Islam in these ports included a report in 1292 by Marco Polo that the states of Pasai and Perlak had Muslim rulers a tombstone of a Pasai ruler who died in 1297 had the Islamic name of Malek al Salleh. These ports were among the earliest in Southeast Asia to be converted.
