Chovvakkaran Moosa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chovvakkaran Moosa Chovvakkaran Moosa (Anglicized as ‘Choacara Mousa’) was a wealthy Indian pepper merchant and ‘Moghul Baig’ of southern India, who died in Thalassery (formerly, ‘Tellicherry’) in 1807. He is also known, more parochially, as 'Moosakakka Keyi' (i.e. the honourable Moosa of the Keyi family). ==Early Years==
Moosa was born around 1745, probably in Chovva near Kannur. This was the home of his maternal uncle and benefactor, the rich spice merchant, Aluppi, who brought Moosa and his brother, Bappan, to Thalassery to exploit the emerging trade opportunities with the Europeans.〔A.P. Ummer Kutty, ''Keyi Charitram'', Thalaserry, 1916, pp. 185-208; M.P. Mujeebu Rehiman, 'Merchants and Colonialism: the Case of Chovvakkaran Moosa and the English East India Company', ''History Farook'' (working paper series, August 2006), p. 2.〕 Very little is known about Moosa’s origins, but he certainly benefitted from his uncle’s patronage in his early years. Aluppi sponsored Moosa's first solo business enterprise in Thalassery, which proved to be a disaster. Undaunted, Mousa then sought the support of the Rajah of Travancore, who agreed to give him seed funding for his next venture and to provide a regular supply of teak.
