Sultan Tangkal Alam Bagagar

Daulat Yang Dipertuan Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah (1789 – 12 February 1849, Batavia) was the last king of the Pagaruyung Kingdom. He was the grandson of Sultan Muning Alamsyah. He had four brothers and sisters: Puti Reno Sori, Tuan Gadih Tembong, Tuan Bujang Nan Bakundi and Yang Dipertuan Batuhampar. Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah was appointed as regent of Tanah Datar after the Netherlands seized Pagaruyung from the Padri. Because of an alleged conspiracy against the Dutch, Bagagarsyah Sultan Alam was arrested and exiled to Batavia, where he died in 1849.

When Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah was still 15 years old, a bloody dispute with the Padri in Koto Tangah happened. He managed to escape to Padang, which at that time was controlled by United Kingdom. In Padang he lived as a commoner.

On 10 February 1821, along with 19 other adat leaders Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah signed an agreement to give Pagaruyung, Suruaso, Sungaitarab and surrounding villages to the Dutch East Indies. They also promised to obey and comply with the Dutch East Indies government. In return the Netherlands would provide troops to aid in expelling the Padri.[1]

After most of the Tanah Datar were ruled by Dutch East Indies, Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah was restored as king of Pagaruyung, replacing the Sultan Muning Alamsyah who died in 1825. At the same time he served as the regent of Tanah Datar.

On 11 January 1833, the Minangkabau rebelled against the Netherlands. Dutch parties, especially Lieutenant Colonel Elout, accused the Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah of being involved in the resistance. Therefore, on 2 May 1833 he was arrested and on 24 May he was exiled to Batavia in handcuffs. The Sultan was later released but not allowed to return to the Minangkabau.

He eventually died on 12 February 1849, and was buried in the cemetery at Mangga Dua. In 1975, with permission from the Indonesian government, his tomb was moved to the Cemetery of Heroes.

Sultan Alam Bagagarsyah had four wives: Siti Badi'ah, Puti Lenggogeni, Tuan Gadih Saruaso and Tuan Gadih Gapuak.
