According to Ma Huan, an assistant of Admiral Cheng Ho, the Chinese sailor would visit ‘Whu Shu’ and drop anchor to rest and to gather the necessities. The straits - fisher folks who then stayed around the estuary of Malacca River, would bring dried salted fish and other commodities, to exchange for their needs. Thus the barter trade started in Malacca that was to develop into a well organised trade centre in Southeast.
