The present sultan's minister, Hajji Butu Abdul-Baqi, has made a new code which has just been proclaimed, but which has not yet met with general approval. This copy of the old Sulu Code is the original which was used by the Sultan Jamalu-l-A'lam himself, and also by Sultan Harun. It was written by Asmawil, the chief clerk and minister of Jamalu-l-A'lam. The manuscript was secured from Sheikh Mustafa, former minister to Sultan Harun. This code differs considerably from the former one used by Sultan Pulalun, the father of Jamalu-l-A'lam, which was more in conformity with the letter of the Quran, much more severe in its sentences; hence the change was welcomed.
