"This book discusses the foreign relations between Indonesia and Malaysia. The liberty of movement of British armed forces in the Malayan territories is being connived at because, after all, ’’responsibility for security” is officially acknowledged to be in the hands of the British. And that is why the Supreme Command is still in London. The so-called ’’Ministry of Defence of Malaysia” has no significance at all because the relationship between ’’British Forces” in ’’Malaysia” and this ’’ministry” is merely of a consultative nature.Apart from 36 rocket bases and other military installations, Britain has also set up Bloodhound guided missile systems. Military aircraft of the latest designs are being flown to ’’Malaysian” soil. Mention must also be made of the British Fleet in Southeast Asia and part of which has been maneuvring Indonesian waters.Deployment of these forces is being made on the pretext that they are to check ’’infiltration by Indonesian troops” and ”to clean up the communists in the country”.The facts are however that long before Indonesia’s confrontation of ’’Malaysia” was announced. And this ’’Agreement” was merely a slightly improved continuation of the ’’Defence Agreement between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Malayan Federation” concluded on May 27, 1957, and of the ’’Agreement on External Defence and Mutual Assistance” between the same parties.While in such a strong grip of a foreign power Tunku Abdul Rahman boasts that the ’’Malaysia” project is an ’’independent state”. The presense of foreign troops on Malayan soil will obviously mean oppression for as long as 10 centuries for the Malayan people. And the presence of foreign soldiers in the Malayan region will forever pose a permanent threat to the Republic of Indonesia, to the Revolution of the Indonesian People. And more than that the presence of foreign soldiers in the Malayan lands constitutes a constant threat to peace in South-East Asia and to world peace."

"Malaya attained independence on August 31, 1957 fromBritain. However this new nation faced a communist insurgencyknown today as the ?Malayan Emergency? (1948-1960). Thenin 1961, Tunku announced a wider federation of ?Malaysia?,viz. Malaya, British Crown Colonies of Singapore, Sarawakand North Borneo, and the protectorate of Brunei. Counteringcommunism was a principal motive for ?Malaysia?.Sarawak?s leftist elements were rejected with an armedopposition. Malaysia was formed excluding Brunei. Amidstits birth pangs, Malaysia faced hostile neighbors Indonesiaand the Philippines; the former objected by way ofKonfrontasi (1963-1967) while the latter laid claim to Sabah(formerly North Borneo). Malaya/ Malaysia was borne in themidst of the Cold War (1947?1991), a bipolar world betweenthe US and the USSR. Malaya/Malaysia is utilized as a caseof analysis and evaluation in the context of the twin trendsof continuities and transformations in tracing the historicaldevelopments from the 1950?s to the 1990?s. The risks,motives, and challenges that prompted the shift in foreignrelations reveal as much of the personality of the political leadership, the prevailing situations, and conditions fromwithin and circumstances from without."

Teks diawali dengan pengembaraan Seh Malaya hingga bertemu dan menerima ajaran dari Sunan Benang, dilanjutkan pertemuan dengan Nabi Kilir.

Melihat jenis kertas dan corak tulisan yang dipergunakan, tampaknya naskah ini berasal dari masa awal abad ke-20. Naskah telah disalin oleh lebih dari satu orang. Penggunaan kertas juga tampaknya 'seadanya' saja, lihat h.81-82 yang menggunakan kertas Eropa dengan chain- dan laid lines sementara teks yang lain tidak.
