About Negeri Pasir Karam
According to H M Zainuddin in the book Tarikh Aceh and Nusantara (1961) the origin of Meulaboh was Negeri Pasir Karam. The country was founded during the reign of Sultan Saidil Mukamil (1588-1604). At the time of the kingdom of Aceh, which was ruled by Sultan Iskandar Muda (1607-1636), the negeri developped.
In the negeri were opened pepper plantations, but this country was not crowded.
To cultivate the gardens, people from Pidie and Aceh Besar were brought in, followed later by the Minangkabau people, who fled from the country due to the outbreak of the Padri war (1805-1836). Arriving at Teluk (bay) Pasir Karam, migrants from Minangkabau agreed to berthing “Kito menyikolah loot,” they said. Since then Negeri Pasir Karam was known as Meulaboh.
