Long before colonial empires drew their maps, the Indian Ocean was alive with movements — ships, stories, and ideas moving with the tides.Among those were the Kelings, traders and travellers whose networks of commerce, culture, and diplomacy connected the Indian Ocean and the Malay Archipelago, helping shape Southeast Asia into a vibrant centre of the pre-colonial world.
Yet their story is rarely told.
