Summary
| Description |
English: Tensions run high as Sir Edward Belcher and James Brooke attend a state evening at the Sultan's audience hall in Brunei. Pangeran Usop submits to the Sultan's will to have Pangeran Muda Hassim placed above him. Sultan Omar Saifuddin II and Pangeran Muda Hassim then sign the 1844 Anglo-Bruneian Treaty.
Marryat's version of events from outside the audience hall: [1] Belcher's version of events from inside the audience hall:[2] Anglo-Bruneian Treaty - 23 Oct 1844 THE SULTAN OF BRUNAI TO THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND. "THIS Document is addressed by the Sultan, and the Rajah Muda Hassim, as Rulers of the territory of Borneo, to the Queen of England. The Sultan, and the Rajah Muda Hassim, desire to gain the friendship and aid of the Queen of England, for the suppression of piracy, and the encouragement and extension of trade; and to assist in forwarding these objects, they are willing to cede, to the Queen of England, the Island of Labuan, and its islets, on such terms as may hereafter be arranged by any person appointed by Her Majesty. The Sultan, and the Rajah Muda Hassim, consider that an English Settlement on Labuan, will be of great service to the natives of the coast, and will draw a considerable trade from the northward, and from China; and should Her Majesty the Queen of England decide upon the measure, the Sultan, and the Rajah Muda Hassim, promise to afford every assistance to the English Authorities."[3] |
