Tanjungpinang existence is increasingly recognized in the Kingdom of Johor, the Sultan Abdul Jalil Shah Tun Abdul Jamil Laksemana ordered to open a commercial trading port on Bintan island, precisely in the River Carang, Hulu Sungai Riau. The new trading port has become a bustling trading port known as Bandar Riau. Tanjungpinang is known as a very important buffer zone and the entrance of Bandar Riau.

This is due to Bandar Riau is a safe area with relatively competitive prices with the dealer Malacca. 
Aside from being a trading center, Bandar Riau known as Kingdom government center Johor - Riau. Several times government of Johor moved to Riau and vice versa.

After several months of the incident, Raja Haji and Malay forces attack Malacca as bases to Straits Dutch Defense. But in the war the forces of Malacca and Riau experienced defeat as the command of Raja Haji Deceased warRaja Haji known as National Heroes.
Under the authority of the
bugis, Riau developed into international trade center. Riau is not only exciting Bugis traders from the ground but also English, Chinese, Dutch, Arabic and Indian.
 
On the other hand the development of political and military power of Riau raises the doubts Dutch who occupied Malacca at that time.
