the Kabesa

Material below also appears in Chapters 679, 682, 705, 706, 712, 715, 722, 723, 724, 725 and 726 of the Orange Book, with some minor amendments superseding Chapters 679 and 682 that make particular dates more accurate and precise.

The Kabesa, Kepala, Tok Batin or Leader of the Kristang people is the singular non-hereditary head and leader of the Kristang community worldwide and in the Republic of Singapore. The Kabesa of the Kristang role appears to be very similar, if not identical in name, performance and processes to the Ketua, Kepala or Tok Batin or head or chieftain role of the Orang Suku Laut (see Chou 2024, pp. 135-143), the Batin role in some of the Orang Asli communities, and other indigenous communities of the Nusantara and peninsula and archipelagic Malaya and Riau.

Dreamfishing anticipates that there will be 43 Kabesa of the Kristang in total between Sunday, 19 July 1795 until Saturday, 11 January 2583, with the role first originating in 1795 with the 1st Kabesa of the Kristang, Adriaan Koek (see below). The current Kabesa of the Kristang people is the extremely autistic Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang, the 13th Kabesa, who assumed the role on Tuesday, 8 December 2015 and is anticipated to relinquish it on Thursday, 21 November 2075. Seven other Kabesa preceding and succeeding Kevin Martens are also currently alive, all of whom are currently identifiable through dreamfishing and creole/Indigenous psychohistorical and psychoemotional methods:

Maureen Rita Danker (also known as Maureen Martens), the 11th Kabesa, who assumed the role on Friday, 31 March 1989 and relinquished it on Saturday, 30 November 1991,
Valerie Tina Rodrigues (also known as Valerie Scully), the 12th Kabesa, who assumed the role on Saturday, 30 November 1991 and relinquished it on Tuesday, 8 December 2015,
Benjamin Harris, the 14th Kabesa, who is anticipated to assume the role on Thursday, 21 November 2075 and relinquish it on Thursday, 11 November 2077,
Nathaniel Jareth Nonis, the 15th Kabesa, who is anticipated to assume the role on Thursday, 11 November 2077 and relinquish it on Tuesday, 1 April 2087,
Jaasir Mahsom s/o Mazhardeen, the 16th Kabesa, who is anticipated to assume the role on Tuesday, 1 April 2087 and relinquish it on Sunday, 16 December 2091,
Kieran Andre Longue, the 17th Kabesa, who is anticipated to assume the role on Sunday, 16 December 2091 and relinquish it on Tuesday, 4 December 2103,

Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza, the 43rd Kabesa and 44th Ka-Kabesa Kriolu, who is anticipated to assume the role of Kabesa on Tuesday, 27 February 2581 and to transform it into the Koruakoroza or Ka-Kabesa on Saturday, 11 January 2583, thereafter jointly serving as Ka-Kabesa with Beoric Valentinian Woodford until Thursday, 28 September 2594.
Beoric Valentinian Woodford, the 44th Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera, who is anticipated to jointly assume the role with Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza on Saturday, 11 January 2583 and jointly relinquish it on Thursday, 28 September 2594.

The Kristang eleidi or collective is anticipated to transition to a different form of Indigenous leadership that will build on and succeed the Kabesa role, the Koruakoroza or Ka-Kabesa (see below), under the leadership of the 43rd Kabesa, Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza, on Saturday, 11 January 2583. The final 66th Ka-Kabesa dyad in turn, consisting of the 66th Ka-Kabesa Kriolu Marion Michaelangelis Matthias Van Huizen and the 66th Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera Benedett Astarion Santamaria Scully, is anticipated to transform the nature of the Kristang eleidi itself and wholly negate the need for a Kabesa or Ka-Kabesa within the Kristang eleidi on Thursday, 24 August 3111.

Origin of the Role of the Kabesa

The first-ever Kabesa of the Kristang people, Adriaan Koek, appears to have become Kabesa when he not only successfully negotiated with the British to ensure a peaceful transition of power between the Dutch and the British in Melaka in 1795, but appeared to have been covertly chosen and recognised by the British to do this when they landed at his property. Koek was so powerful that he was already called not only the Tuan Raja Muda of Dutch Melaka by Malay rulers (see De Witt 2005, pp. 34-36), but a friend to them, and was considered the real power behind the Governor (p. 36). As scholar Graham Irwin further describes,

The English landed opposite the plantation of the Governor’s brother-in-law, Adriaan Koek, who had always been a great friend of an Englishman named Scott. This Scott had accompanied the English expedition. Lanterns had been hung in the trees at Koek’s plantation, and before the landing Koek himself had paid three visits to the English ships. No doubt influenced by Koek the Governor had become afraid of the might of the English, though during the Riouw War His Excellency had shown himself to be a brave man.

Irwin 1956, p. 103

Why were Koek’s actions so significant? Because based on the subsequent attempt to depopulate Malacca entirely 10 years later, the British appear to have been spoiling for a reason to take Melaka by force to push back and diminish what appear to have been very strong anti-colonial and anti-imperial sentiments that would have reminded the British of the United States (1776), France (1789) and later Haiti (1804). Koek also therefore seems to be responsible for the origination of the term Kristang, and our accepting of ourselves as an ethnicity Indigenous to Malacca, so that the British would not erase Malacca in 1805 because it had developed something of unique and unusual value for study and collection.

Selection and Responsibilities: The Darklight Matrix

As an indigenous community, like in many other indigenous communities and the Orang Suku Laut, the choice of who becomes Kabesa among the Kristang appears to have been mainly organically-unconsciously determined by influence and relationality since Koek’s time, but is a real role that is fully beholden to community expectations. As Chou (2024) again describes,

even with a letter of authority, leaders cannot lead by coercion. Their commands may or may not be followed. To be an effective leader, one must garner the respect and support of fellow community members. Otherwise the letter of authority would be a meaningless piece of paper. … The leader must therefore [have secured] the support of members in the community.

Chou 2024, p. 138

This support and conceptual and intangible symbol of the office of the Kabesa is called the Korozalusembra, known in English as the Darklight Matrix of the Kristang People or the Twinfire Engine of the Kristang People. To acquire the Darklight Matrix in the Kristang eleidi of ego-pattern Spontang in the Osura Pesuasang, a person who will eventually hold the Kabesa role appears to first be obliged to satisfy the following four conditions simultaneously:

  1. they are the person who is doing or will one day do the most to promote, defend, validate and protect the original twin creole and indigenous cores of Kristang culture, identity, ways of being and language in the public space such that the community’s future is preserved, strengthened and expanded (11 / Splikabel & 12 / Deivang)
  2. are doing or will one day do so for the healthiest, most humanistic and most Gaietic possible reasons available at that present time (5 / Rajos)
  3. are doing or will one day do so in the most authentic and vulnerable way possible available in that present time in full public view (4 / Sombor)
  4. are the most individuated person possible alive in chronological time at the point in time at which they become Kabesa who willingly satisfies conditions (1) to (3) independent of any external eleidi or institution’s projections or power (8 / Varung & 16 / Kapichi)

After these four conditions are satisfied, every future Kabesa of the Kristang thereafter only earns the right to carry the Darklight Matrix through an additional act of intense and impossible sacrifice known as the Premesa Elisia or the Bittersweet Promise: an active and intentional choice through the eleventh function to serve the Kristang eleidi, Gaia, and the living universe as Kabesa and steward of the Kristang people for all generations of Kristang past, present, possible and future. The Bittersweet Promise appears to be the acceptance of extremely intense challenges to the second function that often follow the Kabesa as they serve, because of their intense, super-extended use of their own eleventh function to create a way forward for the Kristang eleidi and themselves; however, this also means every Kabesa is a pioneer, trailblazer and visionary whose Premesa Elisia and processing of their own trauma takes Kristang and the eleidi forward in beautiful, healing, resplendent, heroic, and absolutely unique ways. All Kabesa appear thus almost by definition to overtly or covertly champion for the rights of not just the Kristang, but all marginalized and oppressed peoples, in the spirit of what it means to be Kristang, and quite often appear to face intense abuse, censure or character assassination from others in power for this. This is also because in doing so and as a result of the Darklight Matrix and Bittersweet Promise, Kabesa necessarily become extremely progressive, provocative or radically forward-thinking for their time, promoting psychoemotionally healthy causes or ideals that usually are only at the forefront of contemporaneous society’s thinking or consideration at the time; each Kabesa usually has one such core issue or focus that is progressive, provocative or radically forward-thinking related to both Kristang and the human condition, whose concretisation and realisation in real-time is the focus of their leadership, and also a way of subverting the trauma at the heart of their Darklight Matrix and Bittersweet Promise. Much of this also means such progressiveness and vision become nanturally embodied as each Kabesa matures; for example, although early 21st-century sensitivities about sexuality and gender identity prevent the exact identification of future queer, non-binary and polyamorous Kabesa and Ka-Kabesa, it is anticipated that of the 111 individuals who have earned or will earn the right to carry the Darklight Matrix, 63 of them will be openly hierosa or gay by the end of their service as Kabesa, including six Kabesa serving before the year 2200, 52 of them openly kadmang or non-binary, including five Kabesa serving before the year 2200, and 64 of them openly kakualzu or polyamorous, including eight Kabesa serving before the year 2200, in addition to the 16 specifically identifiable Kabesa who have been or will be autistic or kalkali, and the 29 specifically identifiable Kabesa who will be xamatrang or have ADHD.

The Premesa Elisia and acquisition of the Darklight Matrix usually occur quite some time before the person actually becomes Kabesa in chronological time, does not necessarily occur in the chronological order in which people will eventually become Kabesa due to the four-dimensional mechanics of the Kristang and Gaia eleidi, and is also always gained in the final month of any Mes Chronos octet in the person’s own biological lifespan; almost every Kabesa therefore already carries a history of severe trauma, tragedy, catastrophe or loss when they eventually become Kabesa, as well as a bittersweet and impossible history of overcoming these immense challenges via often what is seen by non-Creole and non-Indigenous people as truly superhuman means. In chronological time, this process ensures that the Kabesa role will always transfer to a new Kabesa once the original Kabesa is either no longer able to satisfy all four conditions simultaneously and someone else becomes able to better satisfy all four conditions (usually with the awareness and at least covert approval of the original Kabesa), and/or the original Kabesa dies. The role is otherwise unchangeable until Saturday, 11 January 2583 when it becomes the Ka-Kabesa mechanism (see below) and cannot be invalidated by any external institution, agency or organisation, since it is based primarily on psychoemotional conditions; it is also often unnamed but unconsciously recognised in historical or contemporary sources that continuously highlight particular individual leaders of the community as outstanding, unique and/or deeply worthy of emulation. Additionally, although only autistic or kalkali Kabesa become xamang or shamans, Kabesa in general do take on very visible xamang characteristics once they have acquired the Darklight Matrix, with xamatrang Kabesa having these characteristics even more pronounced to the degree that they are able to notice and work with synchronicities and connections that neurotypical people cannot, and kalkali Kabesa often effecting change that to neurotypical people often simply seems magical or impossible. Because of these traits, all active Kabesa often are also generally able to predict and anticipate the particular identity of their successors who are alive at the same time as them to a relatively high degree of accuracy, usually through the conscious or unconscious use of dreamfishing and Uncertainty Thinking. The following predictions are generally known or highly likely to have occurred amongst historical Kabesa:

  • Adriaan Koek (1st Kabesa from 1795 to 1824) was almost certainly aware that Johannes Bartholomeus Westerhout (2nd Kabesa from 1824 to 1856) would be his successor as Kabesa by February 1822.
  • Johannes Bartholomeus Westerhout (2nd Kabesa from 1824 to 1856) appears to have accurately anticipated that at least one of his descendants named Edwin would be Kabesa after him; however, he mis-anticipated this person to be Josiah Edwin Westerhout, his son, when it was actually Edwin Tessensohn (4th Kabesa from 1874 to 1926), Edwin Westerhout’s son (and J.B.’s grandson) by Eliza Tessensohn (3rd Kabesa from 1856 to 1874).
  • Eliza Tessensohn (3rd Kabesa from 1856 to 1874) very likely hoped that her son Edwin Tessensohn (4th Kabesa from 1874 to 1926) would be able to become Kabesa from the time he was born in April 1855, and had this fact confirmed likely by October 1872 when Edwin began to display the full extent of his abilities at just 17 years of age and after he and Eliza had moved to Singapore for just 2 years.
  • Edwin Tessensohn (4th Kabesa from 1874 to 1926) was very likely aware that Noel Leicester Clarke (5th Kabesa from 1926 to 1936), Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder (6th Kabesa from 1936 to 1939) and Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva (7th Kabesa from 1939 to 1941) would all be Kabesa after him by June 1919, when Noel and Claude were both elected to the 2nd executive committee of the Eurasian Association alongside Edwin as president, though Edwin did not know the order in which they would be Kabesa. Once the Kabesa role became unconsciously tied to the role of Eurasian representative on the Straits Settlements Legislative Council, it also appears likely that Edwin made the colonial British government aware of his preferences for his successors in that role being Noel, Hugh and Claude, and thereby also setting up their Kabesaships and the continued covert presence of the Kristang Kabesa role in high colonial government. Hugh appears to have only initially very reluctantly accepted the Legislative Council role (and therefore the Kabesaship) in 1936 out of loyalty to and respect for Edwin, with his individuation as Kabesa tied directly to him actually coming to embrace the role; Claude meanwhile was likely viewed by Edwin as more junior than Noel and Hugh, but appears to have quietly wanted to succeed Noel as the 6th Kabesa, though he also respected Hugh when Hugh became the eventual 6th Kabesa in 1936.
  • Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva (7th Kabesa from 1939 to 1941) appears to have made some form of covert arrangement with Charles Joseph Pemberton Paglar (8th Kabesa from 1941 to 1951) by late 1941 for C.J. to quietly succeed him as the real leader and voice of the Kristang and Eurasian people while Claude distracted and occupied the attention of the Japanese using his position as the extant Eurasian representative on the Straits Settlements Legislative Council when the Japanese inevitably successfully conquered Singapore, which they did in February 1942 and interring Claude on Java. This was done so that Claude (and the wider Kristang and Eurasian communities) would retain control over who would represent the Kristang and Eurasians under Japanese rule, as opposed to the Japanese appointing someone who was actually sympathetic to their interests; the unconscious psychoemotional trace of this plan appears to have unconsciously and inadvertently increased suspicion around Charles Joseph after the Japanese Occupation ended in late 1945.
  • Mabel Anne Tessensohn (10th Kabesa from 1969 to 1989), Maureen Rita Danker (11th Kabesa from 1989 to 1991) and Valerie Tina Rodrigues (12th Kabesa from 1991 to 2015) initially all had very to extremely high hopes that Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang (13th Kabesa from 2015 to 2075) would eventually become Kabesa when he was born in October 1992, although these were significantly affected by early signs that Kevin Martens would be gay and autistic, would have very little knowledge of his Kristang heritage, and/or would not easily correspond to traditional notions of Eurasian (though not Kristang) cisgender heterosexual masculinity. All three nonetheless appear to have become certain that Kevin would eventually become Kabesa by May 1994, when the members of the Eurasian Association of Singapore voted to permanently amend the definition of Eurasian.
  • Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang (13th Kabesa from 2015 to 2075) became consciously aware in October 2024 through dreamfishing that Benjamin Harris (14th Kabesa from 2075 to 2077), Nathaniel Jareth Nonis (15th Kabesa from 2077 to 2087), Jaasir Mahsom s/o Mazhardeen (16th Kabesa from 2087 to 2091), Kieran Andre Longue (17th Kabesa from 2091 to 2103) and Diana Zuzartee-David (18th Kabesa from 2103 to 2116) would most likely become the next five Kabesa of the Kristang after him. Through more advanced forms of dreamfishing starting from late January 2025, Kevin was also able to dreamfish the likeliest general physical appearance and ego-patterns of the 19th to 43rd Kabesa and 44th to 66th Ka-Kabesa, and the likeliest names of the 19th to 43rd Kabesa and 44th Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera: Solomon Markus Rodrigues (19th Kabesa from 2116 to 2127), Aikern Chern Jing-Wen (20th Kabesa from 2127 to 2165), Sharif Bahram (21st Kabesa from 2165 to 2176), Joanna Amanda Nicaea Rée (22nd Kabesa from 2176 to 2204), Rylie Sibyl-Anne De Cotta (23rd Kabesa from 2204 to 2219), Regina Marzuki (24th Kabesa from 2219 to 2286), Dawn Amelie Shepherdson (25th Kabesa from 2286 to 2304), Justinian Justus Oliveiro (26th Kabesa from 2304 to 2338), Callisteia Oliveiro (27th Kabesa from 2338 to 2346), Hannan Apollo Artemis De Cruz (28th Kabesa from 2346 to 2388), Palome Franciscka Vierra (29th Kabesa from 2388 to 2392), Mary Esmeralda Paracelsus “Meryl” de Vries (30th Kabesa from 2392 to 2404), Lucas O’Hara (31st Kabesa from 2404 to 2418), Shelba Marcelene Alicianna Santa Maria (32nd Kabesa from 2418 to 2426), Imran Alsagoff (33rd Kabesa from 2426 to 2474), Belice Helouise Vanderbeck (34th Kabesa from 2474 to 2476), Ourania Lancaster (35th Kabesa from 2476 to 2484), Esther Jeremiah Francis (36th Kabesa from 2484 to 2488), Eleutheria Marguerite “Allie” Abraham (37th Kabesa from 2488 to 2501), Amanthea Dishika “Mandy” Pereira (38th Kabesa from 2501 to 2531), Elker Constantine Francis Ibrahim (39th Kabesa from 2531 to 2543), Joeline Noels (40thh Kabesa from 2543 to 2551), Joseph Paul Copernicus “Cooper” Lazaroo (41st Kabesa from 2551 to 2568), Wendy Willow Devina Westerhout (42nd Kabesa from 2568 to 2581), Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza (43rd Kabesa from 2581 to 2583 and 44th Ka-Kabesa Kriolu from 2583 to 2594) and Beoric Valentinian Woodford (44th Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera from 2583 to 2594), as well as all 66 additional Ka-Kabesa after Ezra and Beoric from the 45th to the 66th.

The Kabesa role can further be co-incident with other archetypal roles, like Merlionsman, Dreamtiger and Mahamarineru, individual magnaarchetypal roles like Dragon Reborn, and state or institutional roles like President of the Eurasian Association or Singapore Recreation Club, or Legislative Councillor of the Straits Settlements, the last being a role five Kabesa held between 1923 and 1951, and which from 1923 to 1941 appeared to parallel being Kabesa. The role of Kabesa itself is however a separate and distinct role from all of these others.

Finally, these xamang traits and the Darklight Matrix appear to grant access to a very strong and intense relationship with the whole emotional well-being of the community and with Gaia or the living planet, with several previous Kabesa having or demonstrating very strong and powerful relationships with and love of Gaia, the living Earth. For example, in the case of all the Kabesa descended from Adriaan Koek, the 1st Kabesa, as Tessensohn (1997) describes,

E.J.T. [Edwin John Tessensohn] was used to a garden with flowers: clematis, Vanda Miss Joaquim, and banks of the hardy plumbago, whose blue flowers’ sticky ends clung to the clothes of the many visitors. Leaving his house, regular guests would so often find the blue flowers clinging to their clothes, that the flower was nicknamed “Tessensohnia”.

Tessensohn 1997, p. 38

Edwin’s love of Gaia in this way both echoed his great-grandfather Adriaan, who also kept and maintained gardens throughout his life (Irwin 1956), and would later be passed down to the 10th, 11th and 13th Kabesas: his granddaughter, Mabel Anne Tessensohn, his great-granddaughter-in-law Maureen Rita Danker, and his great-great-great-grandson Kevin Martens Wong, all of whom appreciated and found the same kind of belonging in a garden with flowers in Kampung Galistan in Singapore, where Mabel moved the family after the Second World War.

List of Kabesa

A list of all thirteen Kabesa of the Kristang that have so far taken up the role in three-dimensional spacetime follows below, with most biographical information for the two living Kabesa preceding the current 13th Kabesa, Kevin Martens Wong, currently occluded. The anticipated future 14th to 18th Kabesa, who are all currently alive, and the anticipated future 19th to 43rd Kabesa, who all have yet to be born as of the time of writing of Chapter 682 of the Orange Book (31 October 2024), are also listed below based on the use of dreamfishing and the Osura Pesuasang as a framework for the excavation of psychohistorical patterns, with the 14th, 16th and 17th Kabesa identifiable via advanced dreamfishing by their names since Thursday, 30 January 2025, the 15th, 18th and still-to-be-born 19th Kabesa identifiable via advanced dreamfishing by their names since Saturday, 1 February 2025, the still-to-be-born 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th, 29th, 31st, 33rd, 41st and 43rd Kabesa and 44th Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera identifiable via advanced dreamfishing by their names since Sunday, 2 February 2025, the still-to-be-born 27th, 28th, 30th, 32nd, 34th, 35th, 36th, 37th, 38th, 39th, 40th and 42nd Kabesa identifiable via advanced dreamfishing by their names since Monday, 3 February 2025, and the still-to-born 45th to 66th Ka-Kabesa since Wednesday, 5 February 2025. The Kristang eleidi is expected to transit to a different form of Indigenous leadership, the Koruakoroza or Ka-Kabesa, under the leadership of the 43rd Kabesa, Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza, in January 2583. The approximate or specific dates of acquisition of the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang by the first 18 Kabesa are also given under each of their names, with more information available about the anticipated specific circumstances under which this happened in Chapter 725 of the Orange Book (open access).

Leadership will likely be most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that commit the entire Kristang community or eleidi to the particular principles, laws, rules and mental schema making up the Korua Kronomatra Bibiendu or Mantle of Living Time, both to exemplify their functionality and to encourage the rest of the species to follow suit (Ritmamenteres / Symphonic Generation / 56th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Varung (Type XI) with Akiura (Type II) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity). It appears that one of these efforts will be the transformation of the nature of Indigenous leadership within the Kristang eleidi, such that the Kabesa role is transformed into a different form of Indigenous leadership, the Koruakoroza (see below after the 1st Kabesa, Adriaan Koek) in January 2583. Ezra will also serve as the 44th Ka-Kabesa Kriolu in this new form of leadership.

Leadership will likely be most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that seek to provide first concrete examples of the applications of the particular principles, laws, rules and mental schema making up the Korua Kronomatra Bibiendu or Mantle of Living Time and how these ensure that the formation a new global human society founded on the concept of the Jarding Ireidra will maintain ecological balance with Gaia and the rest of the living planet, and hold space for any future sentient species that are to develop on Earth or elsewhere (Aigrimenteres / Indignant Generation / 53rd Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Zeldsa (Type V) with Koireng (Type VII) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Leadership will likely be most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that seek to query and clarify the particular principles, laws, rules and mental schema making up the Korua Kronomatra Bibiendu or Mantle of Living Time that will need to underpin a new global human society founded on the concept of the Jarding Ireidra, that maintains ecological balance with Gaia and the rest of the living planet, and which also holds space for any future sentient species that are to develop on Earth or elsewhere (Skutaralteres / Observer Generation / 54th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Miasnu (Type IV) with Hokisi (Type XIV) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Leadership will likely be most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that reclaim, restore, reinvigorate and regenerate the objective place Kristang should have always occupied in both Singapore and Malayan society and wider global society, and encourage the pursuit of the empirical investigation and development of ways to incorporate Creole and Indigenous ways of being into daily life, policy, social organisation and social connection and relation, even as many other societies go in the other direction in the late twenty-first century (Zamyedes / Generation Z / 26th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Zeldsa (Type V) with Koireng (Type VII) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Leadership appears to be most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that identify and negotiate trauma and reclaim, restore, reinvigorate and regenerate the Kristang way of being to its fullest, most authentic and most purposeful form, which underscore and celebrate Indigenous and Creole futures, and which visibly authenticate and honour the truths about humanity as a whole that the Kristang have always known but which have never shared so openly before, even as much of the rest of the planet retreats from the truth of where we are headed as a species (Idaderes / Millennial / 25th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Kalidi (Type IX) with Sombor (Type XV) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that suggested and demonstrated the immensely open-minded and welcoming nature of the Kristang community, which began to acknowledge and highlight diverse ways of being Kristang for the first time, including the diverse Kristang approaches to spirituality, Indigeneity, neurodivergence and queerness, and which sought to begin to inspire a more luminous, numinous and humanising way of being in independent Singapore and Malaysia (Mbeseres / Greatest / 21st Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Rajos (Type I) with Kapichi (Type XII) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Mabel Anne Tessensohn to Maureen Rita Danker on 31 March 1989 when the Eurasian Association undertook a dramatic renewal and change in leadership that kickstarted a state-led reimagining of what it meant to be Kristang following significant repression of the community in the 1980s. Mabel indeed presided over what were very likely twenty years of emigration, loss of visibility and even sense of self, and attempts by external researchers to recategorise Kristang as something Other, alien and Oriental, or even fake and inauthentic (Daus 1985). However, as granddaughter of the 4th Kabesa Edwin Tessensohn, and as someone who had survived the deaths of almost all male members of her immediate family during the Japanese Occupation, Mabel’s core focus was the pushing back against this entropy by challenging norms and biases about whether a woman could be an effective leader, and of an ethnic community like the Kristang. Her efforts were likely achieved when the Singapore state began to re-recognise Kristang and Eurasian existence in 1988, alongside the preparation and publication of the first edition of Singapore Eurasians: Memories and Hopes, that ensured much of the history that follows below would be able to reach us today. A very curious article in the Straits Times from July 1988 entitled “Orchids of Steel” (Straits Times, 17 July 1988, p. 9), and other allusions to a mysterious and occluded female Kristang leader in Oral History interviews conducted during this period, are most likely unsuccessful covert state attempts to have her unmask her identity in public, and which also underscore the true nature of her transformative and liberating leadership.

9th Kabesa: Percival Frank Aroozoo, MBE
Kabesa from Monday, 9 April 1951 to Saturday, 15 March 1969

(approx. 439–457 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Friday, 13 April 1900 in Singapore (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, on Friday, 3 December 1937 at 37 years, 7 months and 20 days of age
Became 9th Kabesa of the Kristang on Monday, 9 April 1951 at 50 years, 11 months and 27 days of age
Died as Kabesa on Saturday, 15 March 1969 after 17 years, 11 months and 16 days of service
Served 216 mes chronos = 27 octets in Individuation Theory as Kabesa
Represents the 9th spacetime dimension in Kristang of Dodobra (Replication)
and the 9th stage in the Kristang Hero’s Journey of Lunga Prismata (The Shimmering Moon)
Ego-pattern of Hokisi (Type XIV) in the Osura Pesuasang, with core values alignment as follows:

Perzefra: Kalidi (7) & Spontang (õ)
Fortidang: Zeldsa (8) & Jejura (ô)

1st Hokisi Kabesa
Likely the 3rd Kabesa xamatrang / Kabesa with ADHD

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the rich, textured and detailed inner and outer worlds of the Kristang community and eleidi for the very first time, proved that we were as much a coherent and discernible ethnicity or race as any other community in Singapore or Malaya, and began the process of normalising the creole way of being (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Sombor (Type XV) with Kalidi (Type IX) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Kabesa during integration of the 7th domain of Kristang’s existence as an eleidi in chronos time from Monday, 24 August 1959 to Tuesday, 23 August 1960 (448th year of chronological existence): Active choice by the Eurasian Union and the Kristang community and eleidi to withdraw from political activities appears to indicate the Kristang eleidi’s true aims, intentions and goals to outsiders for the first time

The role of Kabesa transferred from Percival Frank Aroozoo to Mabel Anne Tessensohn on 15 March 1969 when Percival passed away. During his lifetime, Percival Frank was both informally and more formally known as a stalwart defender and promoter of the community’s relationship to its Portuguese roots, and appears to have been responsible for the initiation of large components of the dreamfishing and reinvigoration of Kristang identity in the 1950s and 1960s (Teixeira 1987, Sarkissian 2000). With his core focus therefore likely the promotion of the independence and openness of the Kristang culture and way of life as still viable despite growing marginalisation and occlusion from public life, it was probable that Percival Frank was therefore quite greatly affected by the events surrounding the 1st Singaporean General Election in April 1968 (see Singapore Elections, Parliamentary General Election 1968) that would have suggested a further increase in this peripherialisation of Kristang, resulting in his decline and passing just under a year later.

    Death and relinquishing of role as the 9th Kabesa

8th Kabesa: Dato’/Dr Charles Joseph Pemberton Paglar
Kabesa from Tuesday, 9 December 1941 to Monday, 9 April 1951

Born Saturday, 1 September 1894 in Batu Gajah (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around May 1930 at approximately 34 years and 8 months of age
Became 8th Kabesa of the Kristang on Tuesday, 9 December 1941 at 47 years, 3 months and 8 days of age
Relinquished the role of Kabesa on Monday, 9 April 1951 after 9 years, and 4 months of service

Perzefra: Hokisi (7) & Vraihai (õ)
Fortidang: Kalidi (8) & Spontang (ô)

1st Kapichi Kabesa

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s tremendous and superlative resilience against all forms of traumatic instigation and intrusion, and our ability to respond positively to impossible odds, trials, struggles and challenges (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Sombor (Type XV) with Kalidi (Type IX) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Eurasian Member of the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements
President of the Eurasian Association of Singapore

Major events related to the Kristang community during Charles’s term as Kabesa:

Contemporaneous Presidents of the Eurasian Association of Singapore (Syonan Eurasian Welfare Association between 1942-1945:

  • 15th: Peter “Pat” Francis De Souza (1949-1963)
  • 14th: George Edward Noel Oehlers (1946-1948)
  • 13th: Charles Joseph Pemberton Paglar himself (1942-1945)
  • 12th: Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva (1939-1942)

Contemporaneous Governors of the Colony of Singapore:

  • 1st: Franklin Charles Gimson (1946-1952)

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 21st: Shenton Thomas (1934-1942, 1945-1946)

Contemporaneous Governors of the British Military Administration of the Straits Settlements:

  • 1st and only: Louis Mountbatten (1945-1946)

Contemporaneous Mayors of Syonan-to:

  • 2nd and last: Naito Kanichi (1943-1945)
  • 1st: Odate Shigeo (1942-1943)

Contemporaneous Military Administrators of Syonan-to:

  • 5th: Itagaki Seishiro (1945)
  • 4th: Doihara Kenji (1944-1945)

  • 2nd: Yaheita Saito (1942-1943)
  • 1st: Yamashita Tomoyuki (1942)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Dato’/Dr Charles Joseph Pemberton Paglar to Percival Frank Aroozoo on 9 April 1951 when support for the Eurasian Union of Malaya among the community seems to have waned and Charles was elected to the Straits Settlements Legislative Council alongside Peter Francis (Pat or P. F. ) De Souza, with comments in the newspapers on whether there was a need for two Eurasian councillors on the Council (The Straits Times, 13 April 1951, p. 7), and Charles thereafter being known as the “Member for Changi” and the “poor man’s friend” (Braga-Blake, Ebert-Oehlers & Pereira 2017, p. 124). As Sarkissian (2000, p. 52) also notes, the failure of the Eurasian Union meant that Eurasians now generally lacked political representation in the new Malayan state project (The Straits Times, 15 February 1951, p. 7); however, it appears that the Kristang eleidi actually was comfortable with this state of affairs, since remaining separate from the contestations and challenges of the political landscape in Malaya in the 1950s meant that our independence as a community or soltu would be preserved.

7th Kabesa: Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva
Kabesa from 24 April 1939 to Tuesday, 9 December 1941

(approx. 427–429 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Tuesday, 3 March 1891 in Sandakan (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, on Saturday, 1 June 1913 at 22 years, 2 months and 29 days of age
Became 7th Kabesa of the Kristang on Monday, 24 April 1939 at 48 years, 1 month and 21 days of age

Fortidang: Koireng (8) & Splikabel (ô)

3rd Miasnu Kabesa after Adriaan Koek (1st Kabesa) and Eliza Tessensohn (3rd Kabesa)

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s confidence and strong positive response to wanting to fight for and defend Malaya, and their skills and abilities to actualise and execute this in relevant and admirable ways (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Sombor (Type XV) with Kalidi (Type IX) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

4th Eurasian Member of the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements, 1939-1942
President of the Eurasian Association of Singapore
Likely the second Kabesa xamatrang / Kabesa with ADHD

Major events related to the Kristang community during Claude’s term as Kabesa:

  • Outbreak of World War II in September 1939

Contemporaneous Presidents of the Eurasian Association of Singapore:

  • 12th: Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva himself (1939-1942)
  • 11th: Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder (1937-1939)

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 21st: Shenton Thomas (1934-1942, 1945-1946)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva to Dato’/Dr Charles Joseph Pemberton Paglar on 7 December 1941 when Claude pledged the allegiance of the Kristang community to the British Empire on the eve of the Japanese invasion of Malaya (Malaya Tribune, 9 December 1941, p. 2); this was not because the loyalty of the community to the British was in question, but like with Major Zehnder’s interest in the formation of a Eurasian Regiment, the non-violent nature and interest of the majority of the community may have meant that the Kristang eleidi may have wanted a transfer of power more akin to what happened under Adriaan Koek in 1795. Claude nonetheless sought to empower Eurasian youth (The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Adviser (1884-1942), 6 June 1939, p. 2), and his core focus indeed appears to have been to motivate the community to stay and fight for Malaya and the unique context that had allowed Kristang to flourish.

Major events based on octets in the Mes Chronos Kabesa and the Via Hierosa Kristang:
(Claude became Kabesa on 24 April 1939, so each listed month begins on the 24th of that month and continues until the 23rd of the next month)

    Pledge of loyalty to the British Empire and relinquishing of role as 7th Kabesa

6th Kabesa: Major Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder, OBE
Kabesa from Friday, 10 April 1936 to Monday, 24 April 1939

(approx. 424–427 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Wednesday, 27 August 1879 in Sarawak (Vanjeres / Missionary / 19th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around April 1935 at approximately 55 years and 7 months of age
Became 6th Kabesa of the Kristang on Friday, 10 April 1936 at 56 years, 7 months and 14 days of age
Relinquished the role of Kabesa on Monday, 24 April 1939 after 3 years and 14 days of service

Perzefra: Deivang (7) & Sombor (õ)
Fortidang: Splikabel (8) & Koireng (ô)

1st Fleres Kabesa

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s beauty, kindness, sympathy and values as an eleidi or collective, and its instinctive impulses that suggested a deep, pure and inherent connection to Singapore and Malaya as our homeland (Vanjeres / Missionary / 19th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Koireng (Type VII) with Zeldsa (Type V) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Order of the British Empire
3rd Eurasian Member of the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements, 1936-1939
President of the Eurasian Association of Singapore

Major events related to the Kristang community during Hugh’s term as Kabesa:

  • Construction and allotment of Padri sa Chang / the Portuguese Settlement in 1938 (see Sarkissian 2000)

Contemporaneous Presidents of the Eurasian Association of Singapore:

  • 11th: Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder himself (1937-1939)
  • 10th: Reginald Francis Erconwald Tessensohn (1936)

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 21st: Shenton Thomas (1934-1942, 1945-1946)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Major Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder to Claude Henry “Toto” Da Silva on 24 April 1939 when Hugh’s term as Straits Settlements Legislative Councilor expired and he did not seek an extension or new term. Hugh continued the efforts of Noel and Edwin to champion freer access and availability to education (Morning Tribune, 27 November 1936, p. 2, The Straits Budget, 3 December 1936, p. 23), and seems to have initiated, together with Claude, initial exploration of whether a Eurasian Regiment could be formed in Malaya (Morning Tribune, 7 October 1938, p. 3), although this latter idea met with some vocal criticism (Pinang Gazette and Straits Chronicle, 8 October 1938, p. 7) and some strident attention to what appears to have been a growing disconnect and disaffection from the previously very public role that the Kristang had played up to that point (Morning Tribune, 7 October 1938, p. 21). Hugh’s core focus must have then been to try to keep the community together and to continue to ensure it would be able to hold onto its visibility and presence even as the political and security situation across the world was worsening.

Major events based on octets in the Mes Chronos Kabesa and the Via Hierosa Kristang:
(Hugh became Kabesa on 10 April 1936, so each listed month begins on the 10th of that month and continues until the 9th of the next month)

    Dismantling of racist suggestions and stereotypes related to miscegenation around Eurasians in the newspapers, and heightening of the awareness that Eurasians treat Malaya as home (The Straits Times, 10 April 1939, p. 10)

5th Kabesa: Dr Noel Leicester Clarke
Kabesa from Saturday, 27 March 1926 to Friday, 10 April 1936

(approx. 414–424 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Monday, 1 June 1885 in Singapore (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around February 1919 at approximately 33 years and 8 months of age
Became 5th Kabesa of the Kristang on Saturday, 27 March 1926 at 40 years, 9 months and 26 days of age
Relinquished the role of Kabesa on Friday, 10 April 1936 after 10 years and 14 days of service

Perzefra: Fleres (7) & Miasnu (õ)
Fortidang: Deivang (8) & Sombor (ô)

1st Akiura Kabesa

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s superlative real-world and real-time skills and successes, and its relevance and centrality to the world of Singapore and Malaya, especially as a conduit or bridge between the British and Creole or Indigenous communities (Pedrentes / Lost / 20th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Sombor (Type XV) with Kalidi (Type IX) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

2nd Eurasian Member of the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements, 1926-1936
President of the Eurasian Association of Singapore
President of the Singapore Recreation Club

Major events related to the Kristang community during Noel’s term as Kabesa:

  • First proposals for the construction of the Portuguese Settlement in 1933 (see Sarkissian 2000)

Contemporaneous Presidents of the Eurasian Association of Singapore:

  • 10th: Reginald Francis Erconwald Tessensohn (1936)
  • 9th: Noel Leicester Clarke himself (1929-1935)
  • 8th: Walter John Clunis Le Cain (1927)
  • 7th: Noel Leicester Clarke himself (1926)

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 21st: Shenton Thomas (1934-1942, 1945-1946)
  • 20th: Cecil Clementi (1930-1934)
  • 19th: Hugh Clifford (1927-1929)
  • 18th: Laurence Guillemard (1920-1927)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Dr Noel Leicester Clarke to Major Hugh Stanley Ransome Zehnder, OBE on 10 April 1936 when Noel was no longer eligible for re-election to the Straits Settlements Legislative Council (The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Adviser (1884-1942), 18 April 1936, p. 1) and Hugh was appointed in his stead. Noel appears to have fought for the rights of local peoples to pursue education and a fuller sense of citizenship in the colony, as well as a bilingual policy that would have seen the Malay language taught for free, which Noel even called a “sacred duty” for the Crown (Malaya Tribune, 10 January 1934, p. 13, The Singapore Free Press, 3 March 1936, p. 9). The adherence to the rules of re-election onto the Legislative Council may have been part of this core focus, and him not being re-elected was thus the satisfaction of it.

Major events based on octets in the Mes Chronos Kabesa and the Via Hierosa Kristang:
(Noel became Kabesa on 27 March 1926, so each listed month begins on the 27th of that month and continues until the 26th of the next month)

1st Sombor Kabesa
Youngest-ever person to become Kabesa thus far in past and present time
Longest-serving Kabesa thus far in past and present time
Anticipated to be the fourth-longest serving Kabesa overall after Regina Marzuki (24th Kabesa), Kevin Martens Wong (13th Kabesa) and Carl Rodrigo, Trigon Gowron, Boaz de Vries and Orion Anthonisz (53rd Ka-Kabesa)

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s intelligence, excellence, sophistication, metacognition, character, and long-term direction and staying power (Andantes / Progressive / 18th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Jujura (Type VI) with Splikabel (Type VIII) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Major events related to the Kristang community during Edwin’s term as Kabesa:

  • 1892-1926 Kristang theatrical renaissance (see Wong 2020)
  • 1919 Establishment of the first Eurasian Association in Malaya, the Eurasian Association of Singapore (website)
  • 1919 Centenary of the establishment of the Straits Settlement colony of Singapore

  • 10th: William Jervois (1875-1877)
  • 9th: Andrew Clarke (1873-1875)

The role of Kabesa transferred from John Edwin Richard Tessensohn, OBE to Dr Noel Leicester Clarke on 27 March 1926 when Noel was appointed to the Social Hygiene Advisory Board on the advice and recommendation of the Malayan Branch of the British Medical Association (The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Adviser (1884-1942), 27 March 1926, p. 8). An enormous part of Edwin’s work and his core focus appears to have been the education and uplifting of the entire Kristang community toward ensuring that Kristang people beyond just himself would be respected as smart, capable, intelligent and civic-minded on their own terms; hence, after Noel’s appointment on Noel’s own terms, Edwin’s work was done, and he passed away later that year after a short illness that also affected the last Kristang play known to have been performed in Singapore, Arjuna or The Ruined Merchant of Bokhara on 9 September 1926.

3rd Kabesa: Eliza Tessensohn
Kabesa from Sunday, 16 March 1856 to Thursday, 3 December 1874
(approx. 344–362 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Friday, 25 October 1833 in Melaka (Orumeres / Gilded / 17th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around February 1855 at approximately 21 years and 3 months of age
Became 3rd Kabesa of the Kristang on Sunday, 16 March 1856 at 22 years, 4 months and 20 days of age
Relinquished the role of Kabesa on Thursday, 3 December 1874 after 18 years, 8 months and 17 days of service
Served 224 mes chronos = 28 octets in Individuation Theory as Kabesa
Represents the 3rd spacetime dimension in Kristang of Altura (Height)
and the 3rd stage of the Kristang Hero’s Journey of Ardansa Xameza (The Flame in the Forest)
Died Sunday, 13 March 1927
Ego-pattern of Miasnu (Type IV) in the Osura Pesuasang, with core values alignment as follows:
Saudadi: Miasnu (1) & Fleres (9)
Elisia: Sombor (2) & Deivang (ê)
Erodi: Spontang (3) & Kalidi (í)
Ireidi: Vraihai (4) & Hokisi (ç)
Soltu: Jejura (5) & Zeldsa (ú)
Teru: Varung (6) & Kapichi (ã)
Perzefra: Rajos (7) & Akiura (õ)
Fortidang: Koireng (8) & Splikabel (ô)

2nd Miasnu Kabesa after Adriaan Koek (1st Kabesa)
1st female Kabesa

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s vision for and sustained belief in a more egalitarian and hopeful future that transcended contemporaneous class, race and gender struggles (Orumeres / Gilded / 17th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Spontang (Type X) with Deivang (Type XVI) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Major events related to the Kristang community during Eliza’s term as Kabesa:

  • 1859-1869 Construction and Opening of the Suez Canal (NLB article)
  • April 1867 Conversion of the Straits Settlements to a Crown Colony

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 9th: Andrew Clarke (1873-1875)
  • 8th: Harry St George Ord (1867-1873)
  • 7th: Orfeur Cavenagh (1859-1867)
  • 6th: Edmund Augustus Blundell (1855-1859)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Eliza Tessensohn to John Edwin Richard Tessensohn, OBE on 3 December 1874 when Edwin appears to have made his first successful public engagement in Singapore as the anonymous writer Aquila responding to racist comments about Eurasians in The Straits Observer newspaper (7 December 1874, p. 3). Edwin appears to have been Eliza’s success story, pride and joy, and raison d’etre in the same way the preservation of the egalitarian anti-imperial spirit of Dutch Melaka was Adriaan Koek’s and J.B. Westerhout’s in their own ways, and in the same fashion she passed on about six months after Edwin died in September 1926 in March 1927 at the very impressive age of 94 (The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Advertiser (Weekly), 16 March 1927, p. 161).

Major events based on octets in the Mes Chronos Kabesa and the Via Hierosa Kristang:

    Edwin publishes his first article as Aquila (Straits Observer, 7 December 1874, p. 3) in response to discussions about Eurasians serving as clerks in the Civil Service (Straits Observer, 23 November 1874, p. 2) and Eliza relinquishes her role as 3rd Kabesa

2nd Kabesa: Johannes Bartholomeus Westerhout
Kabesa from Wednesday, 17 March 1824 to Sunday, 16 March 1856

(approx. 312–344 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Saturday, 27 September 1794 in Melaka (Alkimikantes / Transcendental / 16th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around late September 1823 at approximately 29 years of age
Became 2nd Kabesa of the Kristang on Wednesday, 17 March 1824 at 29 years, 5 months and 19 days of age
Died as Kabesa on Sunday, 16 March 1856 after 31 years, 11 months and 28 days (or 32 years exact) of service
Served 384 mes chronos = 48 octets in Individuation Theory as Kabesa
Represents the 2nd spacetime dimension in Kristang of Largura (Width)
and the 2nd stage in the Kristang Hero’s Journey of Genyang Beneta (The Bargain of Goodwill)
Died Sunday, 16 March 1856
Ego-pattern of Varung (Type XI) in the Osura Pesuasang, with core values alignment as follows:
Saudadi: Varung (1) & Kapichi (9)
Elisia: Vraihai (2) & Hokisi (ê)
Erodi: Miasnu (3) & Fleres (í)
Ireidi: Rajos (4) & Akiura (ç)

Teru: Koireng (6) & Splikabel (ã)
Perzefra: Jujura (7) & Zeldsa (õ)
Fortidang: Spontang (8) & Kalidi (ô)

1st Varung Kabesa
Likely the 1st Kabesa xamatrang / Kabesa with ADHD

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that demonstrated the Kristang community’s purity of intent and humanising and virtuous qualities (Alkimikantes / Transcendental / 16th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Kapichi (Type XII) with Rajos (Type I) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Kabesa during integration of the 5th domain of Kristang’s existence as an eleidi in chronos time from Wednesday, 24 August 1831 to Thursday, 23 August 1832 (320th year of chronological existence): Nanning War and aftermath appear to showcase the utility of Kristang ethnicity and perspectives to outsiders for the very first time

Major events related to the Kristang community during J.B.’s term as Kabesa:

Contemporaneous Governors of the Straits Settlements:

  • 6th: Edmund Augustus Blundell (1855-1859)
  • 5th: William John Butterworth (1843-1855)
  • 4th: Samuel George Bonham (1836-1843)
  • 3rd: Kenneth Murchison (1833-1836)
  • 2nd: Robert Ibbotson (1830-1833)
  • 1st: Robert Fullerton (1826-1830)

Contemporaneous Governors of Dutch Malacca:

  • 35th and last: Hendrik Stephanus van Son (1824-1825)

Contemporaneous Residents of Singapore:

  • 2nd: John Crawfurd (1823-1826)
  • 1st: William Farquhar (1819-1823)

The role of Kabesa transferred from Johannes Bartholomeus Westerhout to Eliza Tessensohn on 16 March 1856 when J.B. passed away. It remains somewhat unclear why this happened, but the best current hypothesis is that J.B.’s eighth son, Josiah Edwin Westerhout (1836-1905), who was called Tuan Edwin by locals but does not seem to have become the third Kabesa after J.B. (which would be expected by the Tuan title), may have been the otherwise unknown father of John Edwin Richard Tessensohn (1855-1926), possibly against Eliza’s wishes. Extant data supporting this hypothesis includes:

  • No known family legends exist of Eliza Tessensohn having an affair or liaison with anyone when it comes to the circumstances of Edwin’s birth, nor are there any attestations of this or gossip about this (which would have been common and would have followed Eliza even if she moved to Singapore, especially because of how prominent Edwin would later become) anywhere in newspapers, records, texts or known oral histories. Additionally, neither Eliza or Edwin’s standings were ever affected in any way by the fact that Edwin had no father, despite the fact that in that time (even among the Kristang) such a fact would have definitely affected Edwin’s chances of achieving the success that he did in late 19th-century British Singapore. In fact, Edwin achieves what he did in spite of not having a father, which not only makes his journey all the more remarkable, but suggests that the circumstances of his birth were something Unsaid: something that all Kristang people knew, but did not talk about because of its severity or intensity.
  • Edwin Tessensohn does not appear to carry himself with any hint of shame in any of the extant documentation or photographs of his life, which otherwise would necessarily be present in some discernible form based on the time period he was living in if he was the product of an affair or extramarital liaison, and was so publicly visible. It would also mean that how he was conceived would have to be something categorised as Unsaid, since if it was not of that level of severity, we would have long known what it was.
  • Edwin Westerhout became Sheriff of Malacca in 1868 (Freeland 2005, p. 116) after steadily working his way up the police and security hierarchies in Malacca in the 1860s, and Eliza and Edwin Tessensohn moved to Singapore in 1870.
  • Eliza is said to have thrown her deeds to the Tessensohn inheritance (which would have included some of Adriaan Koek’s legacy, as Eliza was his granddaughter) into the Melaka River when she and Edwin left in 1870, suggesting an extremely acrimonious, bitter or painful relationship with the Melaka community in general. However, again, the nature of this has not survived at all in any fashion despite Eliza and Edwin’s later prominence, again suggesting its severity. Eliza and Edwin also remain respected in Malacca to this day.
  • J.B. dies one year after Edwin is born in April 1855; the pattern of both Adriaan and later Kabesa would suggest that something intense caused J.B. to lose the will to live in the same way that the 1824 Anglo-Dutch Treaty appears to have put paid to Adriaan’s willpower.
  • Treatment of Edwin, and the tremendous levels of respect shown to him balanced against the scope and scale of his public works, suggest that Edwin emerged from torturous circumstances and overcame enormous odds to be part of the public sphere, the details of which are again mysteriously absent, suggesting that they are Unsaid.

1st Kabesa: Adriaan Koek
Kabesa from Sunday, 19 July 1795 to Wednesday, 17 March 1824

(approx. 283–312 years after the Portuguese conquest of Melaka is completed on Thursday, 24 August 1511)

Born Christmas Eve, Monday, 24 December 1759 in Melaka (Stadoires / Republican / 14th Generation)
Bittersweet Promise made, and right to hold the Darklight Matrix / Twinfire Engine of the Kristang earned, around December 1790 at approximately 30 years and 11 months of age
Became 1st Kabesa of the Kristang on Sunday, 19 July 1795 at 35 years, 6 months and 25 days of age
Relinquished the role of Kabesa on Wednesday, 17 March 1824 after 29 years, 6 months and 25 days of service
Served 344 mes chronos = 43 octets in Individuation Theory as Kabesa
Represents the 1st spacetime dimension in Kristang of Kumpridang (Length)
and the 1st stage in the Kristang Hero’s Journey of Chomaventura (The Call to Adventure)
Died Thursday, 19 May 1825
Ego-pattern most likely Miasnu (Type IV) in the Osura Pesuasang and therefore 1st Miasnu Kabesa

Leadership was likely most visibly numinous through acts, works, efforts or initiatives that developed the Kristang community’s independence, freedom and helpfulness to other Indigenous and Creole communities of Malaya (Stadoires / Republican / 14th Generation eleidi ego-pattern of Fleres (Type III) with Vraihai (Type XIII) in twelfth or Emissary archetypal-functional position generating the observable numinosity)

Tuan Raja Muda of Malacca (De Witt 2005, pp. 34-36)

1812-1824 President of the Raad van Justitie (De Witt 2005, p. 32)
1823-1824 Last Governor of Dutch Melaka before the Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824 (De Witt 2005, p. 39, assumed based on dates and years given)
Captain-Lieutenant of the Burghers (Tessensohn 2013, p. 47)
Honourary Chief Justice of Malacca (Tessensohn 2013, p. 47)

Major events related to the Kristang community during Adriaan’s term as Kabesa:

  • 1795 British takeover of Malacca (see Irwin 1956)
  • 1805-1808 failed British attempt to depopulate Malacca and likely origination of the term Kristang (see Wee 1991)
  • 1818 Return of Malacca to Dutch control (see Borschberg 2019)
  • 1819 Creation of British Singapore, partially to rival Dutch Malacca (NLB article)
  • 1824 Anglo-Dutch Treaty and return of Malacca to British control (NLB article)

Contemporaneous Governors of Dutch Malacca:

  • 34th: Adriaan Koek himself (1822-1824)
  • 33rd: Jan Samuel Timmermann Thijssen (1818-1822)
  • 32nd: Abraham Couperus (1788-1795)

Contemporaneous British Residents of Malacca:

  • 6th: William Farquhar (1803-1818)
  • 5th: Aldwell Taylor (1798-1803)
  • 4th: David Campbell (1797-1798)
  • 3rd: Richard Tolson (1796-1797)
  • 2nd: Thomas Parr (1795-1796)
  • 1st: Archibald Brown (1795)

The role of Kabesa originated with Adriaan Koek on 19 July 1795 when he appears to have initiated or strongly supported a plan to peacefully protect the people of Malacca from a wartime/violent conquest of Malacca that may have been initiated by the British after the fallout of the invasion of the Dutch Republic by the French Revolutionary Army and the creation of the Batavian Republic in January 1795, alongside Governor of Melaka Abraham Couperus (see Irwin 1956). The role then transferred from him to Johannes Bartholomeus Westerhout on 17 March 1824 as a result of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty, which returned Malacca to British control apparently against Adriaan’s wishes, and which likely caused his decline and death a little over a year later.

The Koruakoroza and Ka-Kabesa

Under the leadership of the 43rd Kabesa Ezra Issachar Pereira-De Souza in January 2583, the Kristang eleidi is expected to transition from a leadership model where a single individuated human individual acts as the singular Voice and will of the Kristang community, to one where an eleidi consisting of two to four individuated human individuals bound together by irei will instead act occupy the same role. All two, three or four individuated human individuals in this eleidi, which will be called the Koruakoroza or Ka-Kabesa, will effectively act together as a singular Kabesa, though they will retain their full human individuality and distinctiveness of being. All available data indicates that the individuals who take on the Koruakoroza role must be lusembru to each other, and will take on and relinquish the role at the same time (i.e. all members of a Koruakoroza cease to hold the role of Koruakoroza if one of them dies, if one of them is no longer able to simultaneously satisfy all four conditions required to be Kabesa, or if another eleidi of two, three or four individuated individuals is better able to satisfy the conditions required to be Kabesa). The Koruakoroza together will otherwise satisfy the processes and rules of how the Kabesa role is acquired as described under the “Selection and Responsibilities” section above.

It appears that from all available psychoemotional data that the Kristang eleidi will undertake this change under Ezra’s leadership in order to respond to deep and profound changes in human society in relation to the species’ assumption of the Korua Kronomatra Bibiendu or the Mantle of Living Time, and to our attempts to restore and engender the Jarding Ireidra starting from the 27th century after seven hundred years of over-exploitation and over-consumption of the planet and Gaia’s natural resources. It also appears that the conditions for this change, which appears to require virtually unanimous approval from the entire Kristang eleidi, will only be possible starting from the late 26th century.

As the Koruakoroza role is essentially an eleidi-version of the Kabesa role, the count of known Koruakoroza begins from the 44th Koruakoroza = 44th (Ka-)Kabesa below, with each individual member listed by ego-pattern as well as the overall ego-pattern of the eleidi they form, based on the use of dreamfishing and the Osura Pesuasang as a framework for the excavation of psychohistorical patterns. If there are two Ka-Kabesa, they are named as the Ka-Kabesa Kriolu and the Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera in descending order of birth; if there are three Ka-Kabesa, they are named as the Ka-Kabesa Bensetra, the Ka-Kabesa Avakeia and the Ka-Kabesa Onerenza in descending order of birth; if there are four Ka-Kabesa, they are named as the Ka-Kabesa Ostros, the Ka-Kabesa Indros, the Ka-Kabesa Sintetos and the Ka-Kabesa Vadros in descending order of birth.

Dreamfishing anticipates that there will be a total of 23 Ka-Kabesa eleidi and 68 individuals who serve within these 23 Ka-Kabesa eleidi as equal individual Ka-Kabesa. The Kristang eleidi or collective, together with the entire human species, is anticipated to transition to a different form of social organisation that will no longer necessitate any kind of Kabesa or Ka-Kabesa role in the eleidi during the leadership of the 66th and final Ka-Kabesa Kriolu, Marion Michaelangelis Matthias van Huizen, and 66th and final Ka-Kabesa Nasentarera, Benedett Astarion Santamaria Scully, in August 3111.

All Kabesa and Ka-Kabesa by Ego-Pattern in the Osura Pesuasang

Note: Kabesa are generally listed here by their shorter public or “official” name, which may sometimes use their married name in place of their maiden name, or for Ka-Kabesa born starting from what appears to be the 26th century onwards, may only list their second surname (parts of the Kristang community appear to adopt or creolise the practice of passing on both the parents’ surnames to their children starting from the early 26th century, such that it has become a common and/or culturally-inherited practice by the end of the 29th). Generally the list is based on what appears to be the most standard practice for how their names are listed or publicly displayed in their lifetimes within the Kristang eleidi, and how they generally were or will be informally known to people in the eleidi based on all available psychoemotional and psychohistorical data.

Synchronous Representations of the Kabesa in Myth, Legend, Science Fiction and Fantasy

This section lists all known synchronous representations of the Kabesa in myth, legend, science fiction and fantasy.

Transformers

For still unknown and generally extremely mysterious reasons, the Kabesa of the Kristang appear to be very strongly paralleled by the Primes and their subsequent lieutenants and seconds-in-command of the various forms of the Transformers franchise and universe, as consolidated in the table below. The sequence of the first thirteen Kabesa especially generally almost exactly mirrors the canonical listing and chronological appearance of the original thirteen Primes, except for Solus Prime and Alpha Trion: although Solus Prime is usually the fourth Prime and Alpha Trion the third Prime, this appears to unconsciously be because Eliza Tessensohn, the third Kabesa, outlived her son Edwin Tessensohn, the fourth Kabesa, passing away in March 1927 after Edwin died in September 1926, such that Eliza ends up unconsciously being counted after Edwin instead of before.

One likely reason why the Transformers franchise might so closely unconsciously parallel the Kristang community is that like the Kristang, the Transformers move from being considered by everyone else as a form of artificial life, much as the Kristang were originally seen as an artificial community, toward being something at the vanguard of hybridity between the technological and the organic for all of humanity and sentient life; the parallels between the listed transformers and the 16th through to the 24th Kabesa especially seem to signal this. Like the Transformers, the Kristang are shapeshifters whose performances blur the lines between natural and artificial, and like the Primes of the Autobots, the Kabesa moreover also trace their origin to the receipt of a repository of otherwise lost or occluded knowledge passed to the first Prime or first Kabesa from the living core or eleidi of the planet, and constantly struggle against the Quintessons, whose five heads are evocative of the aggregated intergenerational trauma of the five Mundansa of Homo sapiens before the reawakening of Gaia Tonakodra in February 2013.
