Sultan Hasanuddin Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Sultan Hasanuddin

Rating: 5.0


He was a Sultan
From Gowa Kindom
In South Sulawesi

His heroic struggle
Against the encroachment
Of the Dutch East Indies Company, VOC

Which coveted the Sultanate’s
Rich agricultural lands

The VOC brought in additional troops
And sacked the Gowan fort at Benteng Sombaopu

Forcing him to withdraw
He died in the year 1698
