Three days before the arrival of Princess Aziza, Ustadz Hanafi contacted the personnel section of Musi Corporation, to ask for the data of employees who have the ability to speak Arabic.

Not until 2 hours, there are about 26 names entered in the mailbox computer Ustadz Hanafi. As predicted earlier, from the 26 names, there are 2 figures that have been known enough to Ustadz Hanafi.

The first is Hafsah bint Haji Ibrahim, who is a Staff of the Musi Corporation Foundation. The figure who helped Ustadz Hanafi find Office Building for PT. Agro Main.

The second is Halimah bint Ustadz Harun comes from the Transportation division of Musi Corporation and is active in the study activities of the 19th AHM Mosque known as Ustadzah Halimah.

Hafsah was the daughter of a friend of Mother Aisyah who was none other than the mother of Ustadz Hanafi, while Ustadzah Halimah was the cousin of Sandra's wife Abang Musa, who was the brother of Ustadz Hanafi.

Ustadz Hanafi then submitted his second name proposal to the Musi Corporation personnel, with the aim that both of them get a special duty letter accompanying investors from Tunisia for one week.

Not waiting for long, only about 1 hour of special duty letters came out. And over the next few days, both Hafsah and Halimah served under the coordination of Ustadz Hanafi.

When Princess Aziza had arrived at the airport, Ustadz Hanafi assigned the two new staff to pick up. From the airport they then headed to the headquarters of Musi Corporation using the company's Fly Car facility.

Arriving at the headquarters of the Musi Corporation, they headed straight for the 9th floor. There has been provided special apartment rooms for corporate guests.

After placing the goods in the apartment room, they then headed to the 7th floor, namely to the personnel section.

In addition to reporting to have arrived in Indonesia as well as preparing a schedule of activities during being a company guest.

The three of them came out of the headquarters, apparently Hafsah invited Princess Aziza and Ustadzah Halimah to stop by one of his restaurant branches.

Ustadz Hanafi continued to monitor the whereabouts of Princess Aziza through the reports of her two staff. His meeting with Princess Aziza is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, while today and tomorrow are more related to research activities.

Through the information of Ustadzah Halimah, the three of them also had a meeting through hologram communication with Princess Dayang Mariam. The meeting took place at "Warung Hafsah son of Betawi", shortly after lunch.

While the schedule for tomorrow, they will review some of the agricultural land located in West Java and Banten. Scheduled to also visit the food processing plant owned by Musi Corporation.

But of course, not all the activities they do are reported in detail, especially during a meeting with Princess Dayang Mariam through Hologram media.

"Well, it looks like Miss Hafsah is beaming again, understandably just met the Prince a week ago" joked Princess Dayang Mariam in the meeting.

Getting such insinuations, Princess Hafsah could only fall into a wry mood. Apparently Princess Dayang Mariam always monitor all gossip related to her and Ustadz Hanafi news.

Moreover, after the emergence of rumors in the mass media that there will soon be an "economic-motivated marriage" between her and Ustadz Hanafi.

And because of this rumor, Princess Dayang Mariam until called by her father specifically, asked the truth of the issues that developed in the mass media.

Of course, Princess Dayang Mariam denied the issue. He told his father that all the news was hoaxes and not basic at all.

"If I am, not as special as a friend next to the princess, if this Ustadzah we can meet every day at the Mosque" replied Hafsah responding to the joke Princess Dayang Mariam, at the same time insinuate Ustadzah Halimah who is next to him.

"If at a glance sihh. indeed meet every day, but we can not immediately chat because the mosque is a place of worship." replied Ustadzah Halimah gave an explanation.

"Yes, I'm aware that I'm just an ordinary staff member not a member of the board of commissioners" Ustadzah Halimah said, insinuating Princess Dayang Mariam.

Princess Dayang Mariam who got a counterattack like that, so it went awry on its own. He could only laugh off hearing the insinuations of Ustadzah Halimah.

Princess Aziza just listened, jokes and innuendo from her best friend.

Related to rumors of the proximity of Princess Dayang Mariam with Ustadz Hanafi also he had read and heard from various mass media in Indonesia.

Even Princess Aziza asked for confirmation directly to her best friend Princess Dayang Mariam. And of course, Princess Dayang Mariam strongly denied the news.

History of Rice and Sundaland

Princess Aziza's interest in studying the agricultural industry in Indonesia is not without reason. In 2045, Indonesia has become the world's food barn thanks to the advancement of agricultural technology.

The revolution to build agro-industry on a large scale occurred about 10 years ago and involved all Indonesian people from all walks of life.

And the results only appeared after taking place about 8 years later, where Indonesia again reached food self-sufficiency.

Not long after that, Indonesia was named as one of the countries "World Food Granary". The existence of PT. Agro Utama, which cultivates about 700 thousand hectares of agricultural land, is an effort to be able to maintain it.

The linkage of southeast Asian countries with agriculture, especially rice crops (rice) based on scientific research has lasted thousands of years.

Based on archaeological findings, one Thai archaeologist managed to find rice grains, which have been dated to 9,000 years.

This discovery coincides with the discovery of artifacts in the form of pottery in Sakai Cave, Thailand.

The findings are much older than archaeological finds in China, linked to rice-growing culture, which is thought to have only begun flourishing on the banks of the Yangtze about 7,000 years ago.

While in the Indian region, the people of the region began to grow rice about 5,000 years ago.

With reference to these data Stephen Oppenheimer, a researcher from the University of Oxford, England argues that rice cultivation comes from Southeast Asia and spreads to China and India.

According to Oppenheimer the spread of rice cultivation culture is related to the event of rising sea water at the end of the Ice Age.

At that time, the land between Sumatra and Malaysia, known as Sundaland, turned into an ocean. At this time the area was known as the Strait of Malacca.

This resulted in the Sundaland community, displaced in various directions, from where the rice planting culture spread throughout the world.

The spread of this rice cultivation, as well as being one of the evidence that the people of southeast Asia (the Austronesian people), are the ancestors for the nations in east Asia such as China, Korea and Japan.
