Ja Thak Wa uprising (Vietnamese: Khởi nghĩa Ja Thak Wa) was a revolt led by two ethnic Cham leaders, Ja Thak Wa and Po War Palei, against the Vietnamese government under Emperor Minh Mạng in 19th century southern Vietnam.^[1]

Events[]

Champa was conquered by Vietnam in 1471 but the Chams kept various forms of autonomy until 1832. The Chams were forced to adopt Vietnamese customs.^[2]

After the Katip Sumat uprising was put down, Ja Thak Wa (Thầy Điền or Điên Sư), another Muslim cleric, launched another revolt against Vietnamese in 1834. Ja Thak Wa chose Chek Bicham (Phố Châm Sơn) as his base area; he crowned Po War Palei (La Bôn Vương), a son-in-law of the last deputy ruler (Nguyễn Văn Nguyên), as the new Champa king.^[3] The rebels attacked Ninh Thuận, Bình Thuận, Khánh Hòa and Phú Yên.^[1] They were supported by Montagnard in Central Highlands.^[3]

The rebellion was put down in 1835, both Ja Thak Wa and Po War Palei were killed in Phan Rang.^[1] In the same year, two Cham leaders, Po Phaok The (Nguyễn Văn Thừa) and (Nguyễn Văn Nguyên) were executed by the Emperor.^[4]
