The methodology used in this research is a historical method using international literature sources which are analyzed in depth. The results showed that slavery carried out by the Dutch in Ommelanden was more organized while slavery in Sulu was based on illegal acts and was accompanied by violence. In addition, the slaves who were rented/traded in Ommelanden were obtained legally, while the Sulu slaves were obtained through piracy and kidnapping by the Illanun & Balagingi people. The difference in the subject of management creates a fundamental difference as well.
