Second opinion is that the name is derived from Portuguese words ''Rua Malaka'' (Malacca Street).〔 In the early time, this area used to be prison of the Portuguese prisoner in Batavia, who was captured by the Dutch after they managed to snatch from the hands of the Portuguese city of Malacca on January 1, 1641 Among the prisoners of war is the former governor of Malacca, Dom Luís de Sousa Martins Chichorro. The place in the Dutch language called ''Jonkersgracht'' (meaning "Duke Street"), called Rua Malacca gradually, and eventually became Roa Malaka. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roa Malaka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
