Expulsion of the Cholas
Sri Indrapura, the son of Sri Dewa aspired to expel the Cholas from Sri Vijaya and restore the native Sri Vijayan dynasty to the Sri Vijayan throne, he said that a King or supreme ruler needs to have virtue and dignity to rule its own subjects and .he was is believed to have said that a King needs to be honored and loved by his subjects in order to rule and for that reason he attacked the Chola regents who are ruling Sri Vijaya in Sumatra and Java in the place of the Maharaja of Chola, he was very determined to get back the throne of his ancestors.
Sri Indrapura saw the flaws of the Chola which is that it is weak on the inland battles so he decided that he would change his base to Melaka where he would be able to raise a better army against the regents of Chola, Sri Indrapura created a marvelous and very vibrant city of Melaka.
When he started his plan to expell the Chola regents he asked for the help of the Khmer Empire in expelling the Chola regents, he was able to gain the help of the Khmer Empire and because of that he had superior armies against the Chola regents and because of that the native Sri Vijayan authority was restored in Sumatra but not yet on Java, the Sailendra were loved on Sumatra as well as on Malaya peninsula, the autonym of the restored Sri Vijaya is Malaya so now known as the Kingdom of Malaya as well at this point.
Sri Indrapura finally was able to expell the Chola regents on all of the lands of Sri Vijaya, Sri Indrapura is very purpose oriented that he was very determined to complete his percieved mission in life to liberate the lands of his ancestors even if it meant his death, he is very happy to have restored all of the Sri Vijaya to Sailendrian rule and due to that he is widely regarded as a hero.
In the end he was able to achieve ruling and uniting the lands of Sri Vijaya under his own rule, it is in his reign where in the daughter states of Sri Vijaya such as Tondo and Sulu started to flourish under his support due to his sending of people to those areas, Indrapura would rule up to 60 years since 1067 aside from being known as a hero.
