This is the best marriage gift ever given to other Sultanate as Manggarai had been a vassal state of Bima and source of cargoes of cinnamon, wax, rice and slaves (Gordon 1975: 48).

Kumala Bumi Partiga became the Sultanah of Bima Sultanate because Abdul Kadim, Kumala's little brother, was only 13 years old at that time.
