According to the report, the 607th anniversary of the visit to China in 1417 of Paduka Batara, King of the Eastern Kingdom of Sulu, was recently commemorated here in a ceremony presided over by Princess Jacel Kiram of Sulu.
The report also stated that in an interview with the China Media Group - Servisyo Filipino (CMG-SF), Kiram said Paduka Batara's mausoleum in China is a testament that Sulu was once a great nation. "That's why, every time I come here we offer prayer for the departed, I can't help but be emotional," the princess said.
The report also added that for the current Filipino-Chinese relationship to move forward on the right track, she said it is necessary to strengthen exchanges and people-to-people relations, similar to commemorating Paduka Batara's contribution to the relationship between the Filipinos and the Chinese.
In addition to the report, Paduka Batara was the King of the Eastern Kingdom of Sulu in the early years of the 1400s. He traveled to Beijing with his queen, children, and entourage in 1417 to trade and visit a close friend, the Ming Dynasty emperor Zhu Di, also known as Emperor Yongle.
Unfortunately, Paduka Batara fell ill and died on his way home to Sulu. To this day, their descendants take care of the tomb.
