| Sultan Abu Bakar of Johore & King Kalakaua of Hawaii |
When the King of Hawaii visited Siam with his right-hand man, he visited King Chulalongkorn at the Palace and had a friendly chat. The King of Hawaii said that he had Malay blood and it was answered by the King of Siam by stating that the Siamese also had ties with the Malays.
This event took place in 1881, King Kalakaua left Hawaiʻi and became the first king in the world, to travel around the world to study immigration issues and improve foreign relations. He also wanted to learn how other rulers ruled. In his absence, his sister and heir, Princess Liliʻuokalani, reigned as Regent (King Leleiohoku, the former heir, had died in 1877).
King Kalakaua's first stop was to San Francisco where he received an official welcome from the government. Then he sailed to Japanese waters, where he met the Meiji Emperor. It continued through the Qing Dynasty in China, the Sultanate of Johor, Siam under King Chulalongkorn (Rama V), Burma, the English King of Egypt, Italy, Belgium, the German Colonies, Austria-Hungary, the French Third Republic, Spain, Portugal, the English King Colonies and Ireland, and returned through the United States before returning to Hawaii.
For a long time, this Austronesian group is also known as the Malay group. In 1879, for everyone's knowledge, the Haiwaii parliament with the help of Maharaja Abu Bakar, the Sultan of Johor at the time had proposed a motion entitled, "Unification of the Malay World." King Kalākaua, an independent King of the Hawaiian kingdom at the time, was among those who proposed the unification. They called each other "LOST MALAY BROTHERS."
The Sultan of Johor has great influence. His Highness Sir Sultan Abu Bakar ruled Johor around 1868 to 1895 and the First Menteri Besar of Johor in 1882. Keep in mind the Sultan of Johor was a Malay Sultan revered by the Queen Of England at the time, Because that is why the English advisers in Johor in 1900 only as a Consul and not a Resident, it means that this representative of the English government only acts as an observer and has no power to interfere in the administrative affairs of Johor. (That is why Johor until now has the Johor Military Force (JMF) UNDER the Johor Laws Enactment in the 1880s)
No state in Malaysia until now has the power to establish or have its own military administration except Johor only. The reason is that the Johor Law has existed for the past 120 years before Malaysia became independent. This is why Johor is also quite different from other Malay states.
