Toewankoe Hoesin (also written Tuanku Husein) was one of the family members of the former sultans of Atjeh who, together with Toewankoe Haschim and Toewankoe Abdoel Madjid, attached himself to the war-party against the Dutch, and who was named by General Pel in 1875 as one of the influential leaders of the resistance. The Toewankoe’s — relatives of the former sultans — had, in General Pel’s analysis, “rightly seen that they have nothing more to expect from a foreign overrule.”
The War-Party
In his note of 30 April 30 April 1875 General Pel named Toewankoe Hoesin among the influential chiefs of the war-party:
“That party forms, like an army, a fairly coherent whole, which is led by influential chiefs, as Panglima Polem, Imam Longbatta, Toekoe Rajoet Lamkapang and others, who have the same motives for their actions as those above assigned to their subordinates, and to which, of course, the relatives of the former sultans, the Toewankoe’s Haschim, Hoesin, Abdoel Madjid and others, have attached themselves, who rightly see that they have nothing more to expect from a foreign overrule.”
