I love how all of these 12 minute history videos tie together with each country. It kind of like watching a movie play out all the way through. A lot of SEA countries have so much in common, and it seems as though you are all brothers and sisters in the end, and I love that!

Royal families are hereditary or lineage and never elected. Yang di-Pertuan Agong (King) is elected by and from 9 Royal rulers in Conference of Rulers. In modern time, Penang, Malacca, Sabah & Sarawak have Governors as head of State and does not have Sultans. Governors are not eligible to be king.
Completely trueeee
It is modeled after England...
@@jezyldequillo218 no. The elected King was following the Malay traditional royal custom practiced in two states (Perak and Negeri Sembilan )
@@gingerteddy618 Terima kasih atas penjelasan anda, because I always thought it is modeled after England, with a lot of twists....
Because of the royal families, the PM, the parliament...
@@jezyldequillo218 part parliamentary democracy tu memang lah modeled after england, tapi part banyak raja tukar giliran jadi raja besar tu yang modeled after perak dan negeri sembilan
Sya org pakistan🇵🇰 tapi sya dok malaysia 🇲🇾...long live pakistan long live malaysia.....
Miles hits the mark in pronouncing the names of places i.e Borneo, Kuala Lumpur, etc...
So u guys been here kota kinabalu? Wow
This info is to answer your curiosity in min. 8:40 -
The Portuguese, being Portuguese, were staunch Catholics. And so were the Dutch. Wherever they went and captured foreign lands, it was because of the 3Gs: gold, glory & gospel. They we able to convert South America, almost the whole of the Philippines and some regions in modern day Indonesia. But they failed to convert the Malays. They failed to understand that the Malays were strong believers of Islam, although before the spread of Islam, Malays were followers of Hinduism-Buddhism.
Since 1511 until 1957, as a colony of Portugal, Dutch and England, Malays remained and are still Muslims.
Nope. By the time the Dutch took over Malacca they were Protestants, more specifically Calvinists.
@@tdugong
Hmm. The Dutch and English were the Protestants, not the Malays.
@@tokwanofficial3036 yes, which is what I replied to. You were insinuating that the Dutch were Catholics when they defeated the Portuguese.
This is only tell the history from Sri Vijaya empire but before that we have Kedah Tua Tua Empire. Which is famous with ironing, the place that they found iron ore back then and very rich land of ores until they can found iron every where in Kedah and until now the historical iron processing place remains in Kedah and Malaysian government just found that area probably less then 20-15 years ago. And before Kedah Tua Empire we have langkasuka and According to history tells the men who govern the country is a descendant of Alexandria the Great. (This information is still remain unknown because we still unable to proof any documents or book or notes about this history)

its pronounced Johor
J as in John
1841- Sarawak is not under british colony yet. At this moment its called Sarawak Kingdom. Sarawak was rule by The Raj (Brooke Family) until 1946.
After world war 2, Sarawak was ceded to the UK then officially became British colony.
One fact during this kingdom, Sarawak was recognised as one of independent country in 1850 by the United States & by the United Kingdom in 1864.
22 July 1963 - Sarawak Day (Independent from British)
16 September 1963 - Form Federation of Malaysia (Malaya+Singapore+Sarawak+Sabah)
Even though, today Sarawak already part of Federation of Malaysia, The Brooke Family (Jason Brooke) still keep in touch with local sarawakians & sometime in the city too. They also has set up a Brooke Meseum in the city of Kuching. You guys can visit it later if you guys in Sarawak! 🙋🏻♂️
Use the adjective peninsular to describe a near-island that is connected to the mainland. ... A peninsula is a piece of land that juts out into the water, nearly an island. Something that's peninsular looks like a peninsula or is a geographical area with a lot of peninsulas.
The spelling of the noun as peninsular instead of peninsula is a common mistake. The spelling peninsula should be used when a noun is intended (the end of the Cape Peninsula), whereas peninsular is the spelling of the adjective (the peninsular part of Malaysia). So it is right to say that West Malaysia is a peninsula and that peninsular Malaysia is located towards the west.
The narrator forgot to mention the communist riot.
I am from malaysia and maybe it is not important but there is a lot of muslims in malaysia and malaysians are good voice actors
We pronounce it like this;
Johor = Joe hor not Yohor (J as J like Jam, Jug, and Joe)
Kecil = Kechil not Kecile or Kesil (C as Ch like Channel, Chalk, Child)
Kuala Lumpur = Kooala Loompoor, not Koala Loompar (U as Oo like Loop, Hoop, etc.)
And Parameswara indeed has accepted Islam and change his name to Iskandar Shah
And Proto-Malay people are of Austronesian origin who lives in the Malay archipelago which called Sundaland at that time
Google Sundaland for more info about it
Malaysia is a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarchy. Similar to UK but our King is elected from the 9 hereditary States' Sultans for a 5-year term, on a rotational basis. The King is the Supreme head of the armed forces and head of Islamic religious affairs. The Prime Minister as the head of the coalition of parties that are elected by the people every 5 years. The King, while generally does not take part in running of the country actively, acts in many respects based on advice of the PM. E.g. dissolving parliment, declaring Emergency, appointing Senator to the Senate etc.
Hi guys, if you wanna know more about the royals in Malaysia, feel free to react to this video :
'Pertabalan Agong Ke-16 SEMUA RAJA-RAJA MELAYU HADIR kecuali Johor, Kelantan, Perlis & N.Sembilan'
The video features all incumbent kings and regents of all royal state in Malaysia during The Installation of Malaysian King the 16th.
Nice one
Boleh bagi cadangan kat discord dorng
@@aimanhaikalthemalaysian7089 takde pulak join discord.. haha
Royal family runs like the monarch similar to uk.parliment to elect the PM as democratic country
In Malaysia, our laws and parliamentary system is quite similar to the British with a few tweaks here and there to suit the demographic in Malaysia. Let me explain it in more laymen words. Malaysia has 13 states and federal territories (KL/Putrajaya/Labuan). Among the 13 states, only 9 states have 9 sultans with their monarchy royal families. Out of this 9 sultans which formed the Conference of Rulers after independence, each sultan will have their turn in rotation to be elected as the national King which is call Yang di-Pertuan Agong (YDPA) in every 5 years. YDPA is the constitutional monarch and head of state of Malaysia. Most of the power of the YDPA is always under the advise or supervision of the elected Prime Minister and Ministers from the Cabinet formed by the winning political party in the constitutional parliament where most of the bills/laws are made. General elections are held every 5 years. and we have federal government which is the PM and its cabinet of ministers and state governments.
I'd appreciate if the video The Commodity reacted have included other part of history like the Old Kedah, Old Perak, Siamese influence in Northern and East Coast States, White Rajah and Brunei/Sulu. The 12 minutes story is just concluding the history of Malacca/Johor which wasnt represent the whole Malaysia history.
Well, it is 12 minutes only
The first Malay King converted to Islam was the King Muzafar Shah of Kedah in 1136.
Kedah royal family still rule the state until today.
Small history here. Tins as we in Malay called it bijih timah was mostly actually from Perak. Perak was supposed to be the Main State n Ipoh supposed to be the Main City because the resources of which Malaya/Malaysia grew was because of that area.
Even the first few rich citizen was from there.
The first car itself was drove in Perak.
Which is why when u look into the vehicle plates, the plates from Perak all starts with the letter A.
Somehow is like it let us know that it starts from there.
Im born in Ipoh,Perak,Malaysia and im proud of the place.
Sadly it was then moved to Kuala Lumpur because its considered the most strategic location.
Even today Perak was not as famous as its other states.
Perak is between Penang and KL.
Yet its was lesser developed n often ppl from Penang wants to go KL n vice versa would choose Ipoh, Perak as a stop point to rest from a few hours to a day before continuing their journey.
Then again i still love Perak because it was able to still be modern yet has much of its nature preserved quite well.
If you guys curious about our religion after Dutch invasion. Malay did not change their religion since they took Islam as their religion. They are still a muslim until now.
Hi Phezz & Miles.. Pls reaction Pertabalan Agong Malaysia ke16 / Installation Of Malaysia’s 16th King
I second this..👍
This one very interesting!
Nice one
Me want them to react on Sultan Johor Coronation... and His vehicles collection and yearly Kembara mission
Yes please
Malaysia practices Parliamentary Democracy with Constitutional Monarchy. Head of State is The King. King will be elect every 5 years by The Conference of Rulers. For 9 states that have sultan, it is through monarchy system.
Separation of powers, three branches: executive, legislative and judiciary. Executive lead by the Prime Minister.
For parliment of Malaysia is based on Westminster system. King is paramount of Ruler, Senate and House of Representative.
At House of Representative, there are 222 Members of Parliament, chosen by citizens through General Election for every five years. Selected Members of Parliament is in executive.
Well we learn English directly from British coz we were part of the British colonization. But nowadays because of American influence due to mainstream media and entertainment we are getting the influence from American too.
We officially learn English at school using British English. And we're commonly using American English.
That's why we know both about Brinjal and Eggplant, Pants and Trousers, Vacation and Holiday, Airplane and Aeroplane.
But yeah we call french fries instead of potato chip.
And also we called tomato sauce instead of ketchup. As ketchup sounds like kicap(soy sauce) in Malay.
Our system is similar to UK except that we have 9 royal families.
9 pieces of 8
Welcome to the real of "Game of Thrones".
The narrator's pronunciation is off for some of the names and places. Anyway, Phezz there's a small Portuguese Eurasian community in Malacca. Having their ties severed from Portugal since the 16th century, the community still speaks a form of Portuguese patois. FYI , Magellan was D'Alburquque apprentice. Magellan went on to circumnavigate the earth with his Malay slave known as Enrique of Malacca or Henry the Black. Anyway..have fun discovering malaysia.
Phezz is correct.....it is pronounced Kuala Lumpur as in "Loom-Pooh-rr". I think your guy's pronunciations are better than the guy in the video.
Which video?? Because all of them were in it.. hehehehe just kidding
@Liwat Bois Jubur 🔴 "LBJ" correct pronunciation he said refer to how natives say it
It's not about the spice route. When people all around the world pay taxes in gold/silver. With much money, so come with power. Besides it's easier for them to rob rather than build from scratch.
Peninsular Malaya, Sarawak, and Sabah have different history.
Peninsular direct from British.
Sarawak white rajah period, Brooke family rules.
Sabah a Company from Britain rules.
After Japanese came, then Sarawak and Sabah ruled direct from British. And fun facts Peninsular Malaya, Sarawak, and Sabah got independent at different timeline. Then Malaysia was form 16sept1963. You guys can visit Sabah and Sarawak museum after covid.
No the Dutch were protestant, they didn't try to convert the local they only convert their slaves in the state of Malacca. The dutch have an agreement with the local Malay rulers. The Portuguese tried to force convert the local but failed miserably. The Dutch actually married a lot of local and made a mix dutch-native population called Dutch Burgers.
The video is literally the same as our school's history text book. The history of Sabah and Sarawak are usually left out. Go ask some malaysians how Brunei became small and how Sulu lost it claim on Sabah. Im sure some can't even answer it.
Malaysia uses a system of Parliamentary Democracy under Constitutional Monarchy
My ears tickles everytime the narrator pronouncing the words. 🤣
Peninsular able to restore 9 kings in power because historically only Straits Settlement (Penang, Malacca, Dindings, Singapore) that got involved with colonial from Portuguese to Dutch whereby the other states pretty much independent or protected by other regional power like Johor, Siam and Aceh until British came and appoint their resident to assist the 9 kings. Sabah dan Sarawak is another stories where in Sarawak they used to have white rajah, under Brunei and Sulu sultanate as well as colonized by British.
After Islamization, Malaysia , Southern Thai , Southern Philippines and Indonesia archipelagos didnt influenced much by Christian missionaries from Dutch and British because chrisitianity wasnt their main focus . In Phillippens, the spaniards campaigned it with christianity hence majority of the locals either forced or volunteery embrance Christianity from Islam or animinisme. In East Malaysia, local natives in Sabah and Sarawak following the same patern to convert to Christinity, in Indonesua local native in North Sumatra, Moluccas/Celebes as well. I can conclude that the only way Christianity could happen in Malaysia and Indonesia is if the kings convert to Christianity which never happen eventhough the royallies have close ties with Dutch/British.
That history kind of outdated (lots of new historical discoveries since), too simplified, and you won't get the pictures of Sriwijaya without telling the history of other South East Asians' empires (Majapahit, Ligor, Ayudhya, Cambodia, Siam, Mon, Khmer, etc)... and thats only Peninsular part. Borneo's Malaysia also has lots of Empires and history that the video didn't even touch.
In Malay, everytime you saw "u", you pronounce it as "oo".
This is more like a history on Peninsula Malaysia rather than Malaysia, many of the historical event were left out such as the White Raja Era on Sarawak or How Brunei gave large part of Sabah to Sulu Sultanate ( Which is why philippine historicaly claim Sabah as part of their country) but it still part of Malaysia culturally, religiously, economic and military-ly
The Parliament of Malaysia (Malay: Parlimen Malaysia) is the national legislature of Malaysia, based on the Westminster system. The bicameral parliament consists of the Dewan Rakyat (House of Representatives) and the Dewan Negara (Senate). The Yang di-Pertuan Agong (King) as the Head of State is the third component of Parliament.
The Yang di-Pertuan Agong's or King of Malaysia role is that of a constitutional monarch. The Constitution of Malaysia and Acts of Parliament made in accordance with it define the extent of his powers as the head of state. These are divided into two categories: powers exercised on the advice of the Prime Minister, another Minister, the Cabinet, the Conference of Rulers, or some other officer or institution, and discretionary powers.
Both words are different. It's the peninsula, and Peninsular Malaysia.
Eng : peninsula
Malay: Peninsular
Ok to be clear the Portuguese did try to threaten the locals by threatening to kill their wives and children if they do not convert but guess what they didnt,and in Melaka you can still see the Dutch-ey building in the state capital and many more places
How Malaysia went from that to the powerhouse in South East Asia today.
Peninsular.... **
2:32 Its not travel from china...russia-japan-malaysia...you can search on google👍
I would suggest you guys to react on on a specific legendary event ' The Dawn Raid' where we get back what we deserves from the British.
Latin America you see more solid spanish and portuguese names because smallpox and other old world diseases wiped out so much of their population that there wasnt enough of a native presence left to reassert their local culture, clearly. You see in southeast asiaa, there was no mass dying from disease, so even during colonisation, it was always a precarious balance of power between the local kings, feudal lords, military leaders and whatnot and the various colonial powers. Various deals and treaties were how things went around. If the video said a certain sultanate or kingdom, then that means it was under the administration of local people, be it sometimes as vassals of europeans, sometimes not. So there is a mix of names of places in Southeast asia, especially in terms of cities, but enough local presence that a lot were changed to local names after independence. The only outlier being the phillipines, whom the northern parts were more tribal and not united at the time and the spanish actually gave them their unifying identity.
you two pronunciation way better than him 😶
The Dutch was expanding just for treasury not for religious mission
Quick history of Sarawak (One of the East Malaysian state) :
In 1841 sarawak is established by James Brooke the first white Rajah of newly independent kingdom of Sarawak.Sarawak received recognition as an independent nation by United States in 1850 and by the U.K in 1864,Sarawak maintained its independent status until 1946 where the third white Rajah failed to rebuild the country because of the aftermath of WWII from Japanese occupation and ceded Sarawak to become the crown colony of British(to help rebuild Sarawak and governt it). Sarawak gained it's independence from the Brits on 22th July 1963 and help to establish a new country together with Federation of Malaya and North Borneo (Sabah) that is now known as Malaysia on 16th September 1963.
Thank you.
Sultan power is limited to only religion and stuff like appointing leader....we have Prime Minister and they the one that handle the country... technically speaking our royal family is just like The UK Royal family they just rich people that have quite a bit of power and tons of influence
Kuala Lumpur as what Malaysians tounge for you to say "Koala Loom Pour"..It's ok regarding pronunciation... not a big deal.. Malaysians are very understanding people.
the role of the Sultan and king are the same as the role of the Queen in England, they have limited power but their influence is a little bit more than the Queen of England because they were highly respected by the local Malays.
Malaysia was use elective constitutional monarchy with westminster parliamentary type of government...same like UK but not same...like nearly same but not...why elective constitutional monarchy, cause have 9 king
Portuguese does tried to convert Malay to Christianity but Malay are known to be loyal to king (sultan), and also strongly hold on our faith. Arab muslim called us bani jawi. Johor pronounced phonetically j like jar, it came from arabic word 'jauhar' means diamond. Maybe the r of peninsular is the unchanged mistake since schools time at least for me 🤣. They are king with parliment. Yes we have parliment like other country with prime minister. Politics and so on. But we also still has sultan and yam tuan besar of few state for which they take turn of 5 years on the country throne. They have the authority in islam religion matter and military. This is to be mention to make sure no dictatorship as the power wasn't in the sole hand.
Peninsula is a noun while Peninsular is the adjective. So usage depends on context.
My life is simple, Everytime I saw the commodity upload new video, I CLICK. Then guess what? Spoiler alert! I hit the liked button. Thug life bruh!
Sadly, no sabah and Sarawak mention in the "history lesson" video. But I'm glad, u know where is sabah (north borneo) & sarawak. 😊
Sarawak ranger agi idup agi ngelaban✊
Do you know Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunai, and Singapore they use same language BAHASA MELAYU ( MALAY LANGUAGE )
Indonesia only riau and pesisir utara sumatra guna ckp melayu ...
The speaker in the video mispronounced many words. He obviously didn’t do his homework.
Very obvious because he never mentioned the history of Sabah & Sarawak
Malaysia its a monarch constitutional country with democratic parliamentary, We actually same as UK. We don't elect the King, we elect the government.The King is the nation head but still only had a few power to exercise.
Malaysian state of Sabah are under Brunei kingdom, not Sulu. even Sulu islands are part of Brunei kingdom.
The guy in the video butchered all pronunciations haha
Why they never show Sarawak history
Today's sultan if I'm not wrong not from the royal family but rather from the treasurer family which we call 'bendahara' that taking over power after the fall of Sultan Mahmud dijulang..
from dna, more interesting to know about Melayu.
Peninsula= root word
Peninsular= denoting of a peninsula
Peninsular is a British spelling right?
When the Portuguese came that's when the Christianity spreads...
The Portuguese are Christians..they have come because of 3 objective "Gold,Glory,Gospel"
Malaysia 🇲🇾
Yang DiPertuan Agong (YDPA) could be known as King of sultans. YDPA is elected by all of the sultans. This royal family is a symbol of unification of Malaysian.
While the government is govern by Prime Minister which elected through national election.
YDPA and states sultan can't meddle in politic but could only as patron or observer for the country.
Philippines claim sabah according to historical claims but sabah now is under Malaysia but the claim is still going..
Perlis, Kedah, Perak, Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Negeri Sembilan and Johor have royal families based on lineage. The Sultans of these states rotates among themselves to be the Ruler (Agong) for 5 years. Melaka, Pulau Pinang (penang), Sabah, Sarawak and Federal Territories do not have a sultan.
8:00 The Johor version of Game of Thrones.
Sulu(Philippines) try to accupy Sabah(Malaysia) in 2013 but failed
kedah tua bruh
Peninsular maybe it's British spelling..we use uk english not us english
The sultans and the king grants consensus form the parliament, if some thing bad happen to the country, the king will take over as the army is directly control by the king
malaysia system of administration is same with britain.constitutional monarchy
It's kind of unfair that when Sabah freed by Britain, they didn't return the territory to It's rightful owner, Philippines :( Now Malaysia won't let go of Sabah as if they originally owned this territory. Thanks to Britz, they expanded Malaysias territory and stole Sabah (Sultanate of Sulu) from Philippines. When they declared independence and draft the law, they ensure that Sabah won't go back to where it belongs and form an alliance instead.

Malaysia political system just same like the british. Most of the govt operation and business runs by the parliment, the PM and his cabinet. The kings of each state and the supreme king (Agong) is the head of state just like queens elizabeth of UK. Ceremonial Purposes and head of military. For easy talking, our system are just like the UK. 90% the same.. The royalties dont involve much in politics..
Oldest monarch is kedah since 676bc
But we got no official record tho😢
Inaccurate, Sarawak was British colony after 2nd WW before that under the Brooke family
each state has sultan and each sultan will have their turn to become Agong....actually malaysia onlly apply sultan to become leader. But when british invade, they change system to democracy which has prime minister. But, to keep the sultan position both position remain Prime Minister and Agong. If the parliament in problem and Prime Minister in problem, Agong will consult and make decision. Lets say parliament is down and suddenly prime minister resign his position, then Agong will take over and lead....if im wrong im sorry.
also it is pronounced kuala lumpoor
Kuala Lumpur is best
Our country is a democratic, parliamentary, constitutional monarchy, and elective monarchy (9 sultans from 9 states will rotate to be the King of Malaysia "Yang diPertuan Agong"; each King will serve for 5 years) nation. Sultans' and King's are the Head of Islamic affairs and matters.
Prime Minister is the one governing the whole nation. PM is elected by the Agong/ King from the winning party. The citizens will elect the representatives of a political party (election is once in 5 years). The party with the majority seats wins the election. Fyi, Royal families do not cast votes.
14:28. im not good with history but never heard of British Malaysia. I think its British Malaya + Sarawak + North Borneo. Cause the nation only formed on 1963. So, the name of Malaysia only applicable after that. Just my opinion.
this was history of peninsular malaysia in 12 minutes..not the history of malaysia entirely because the borneo side had their own interesting history.
Its British spelling :P
A peninsula is a landform surrounded by water on most of its border while being connected to a mainland from which it extends. The surrounding water is usually understood to be continuous, though not necessarily named as a single body of water.
It is the Federal Westminster Monarchy system that we practise here.
Peninsular? British spelling maybe
Cool. Please continue history reaction of Philippines, Indonesia etc
Miles and phezzz. U guys r so cute 😍😍😍. Others agreed or not ?
Malaysia's winning party was lead by chinese so chinese was suppose to take over the giverments position but the malays does not like it so that start an internal war that killed lots of people and my grand father saves more than 100 lives during the japan empire and the internal war :)
tbh sabah suppose to be the part of the Philippines..
