I know very little about peninsular history so please, DO correct me if I'm wrong. My understanding is:
In 1511 the sultan of Malaka fled to dependencies: Siak, Rokan, Indragiri, Kampar/Bangkinang, Riaoe and finally to Djohor.
When the Portuguese destroyed his base in Bintan in 1526, the sultan then retreated to Kampar/Bangkinang in Soematera where he became ruler of Pekantoea Kampar until he passed away in 1528 (He was buried in Pekantoea Kampar). He left behind two sons named Moezafar Sjah and Alaoedin Sjah II
Moezafar Sjah established the Sultanate of Perak, while Alaoeddin founded the Sultanate of Djohor, the successor of Malaka.
Best.
