Subi Island, there is the former airfield, built by the Japanese government, during the occupation. Japan set up the field in 1942, as one defense in Natuna.
"Today, the remains of these airfields have become forest rimbah by leaving piles of scrap metal," explained a member of parliament Natuna, Baharuddin, SE, on the history halamnnya village, the Village District Subi Subi, Natuna Regency. This story is reinforced by the record Tarhusin Wan, Bsc, one of the Cultural Leaders in Natuna regency.
He said, airfield construction is done by deploying to recruit Japanese people as a force Subi Island Rodi, until the airfield was completed. But when he heard the news the Dutch troops already in Ranai, Japanese Marines in Subi Island, gradually began to come out. And the last wave of Japanese troops, the Dutch air force caught suddenly passed over the island of Subi, by dropping bombs from the air. The bomb is what causes the Japanese airfield on the island of Subi, was heavily damaged.
However, with a thousand common soldiers, the Japanese still find a way to get out of Subi Island. They then met Datuk Kaya Pulau Subi for assistance. They asked that people submit Subi skull cap (cap) to the remaining Japanese troops to be used as a disguise to look like a Malay Pulau Subi.
It seems reasonable success. From Pulau Subi remaining Japanese soldiers to exit leading to a very secret place. They come out at night using a canoe berciau go to places that have been directed. And indeed, no one Japanese soldier who stayed or left on the island of Subi.
According to Baharuddin, Subi Island airfield is now the jungle leaves. Located in the south east or Ranai Bunguran Island and the northern island of Serasan. The distance between Pulau Subi with Ranai around 70 Mile and lesson Island Serasan with Subi Island about 35 miles.
During Kewedanan still a District Seven Island, Pulau Subi included in one region with Onderdistrict Serasan and headed by a classmate Amir Camat today. Whereas now, Subi Island has developed into a district that is Sub Subi.
In those days, Pulau Subi targeted Japan as it is considered strategic. It's also what underlies the Japanese built airfield Japan in 1942. This was done as a center for air defense of Japan in the Natuna accompany Terempa as the Japanese marines and army troops Jutai.
Subi Island is known International d in terms of the history of the Japanese and the Dutch East Indies era.

Meanwhile, for the story of the nickname "Tokong" which also means the land knoll protruding into the sea or land surface or rock Kukop protruding into the sea surface, which is very dangerous to shipping traffic passing through the area. Tokong nickname given to Datuk Kaya Island on Seven Islands likens to a leader who controls the Government in the smallest area, which when it is given the right by the Sultan of Riau in accordance with the provisions of "Indigenous Foundation," which already exist at the time.
From the story received, that the title given in the division of Region Seven Island Datuk Rich mentioned that for the Island Territory Siantan given to Prince Paku State and Orang Kaya Dewa Perkasa, for Region diberikana Jemaja districts Island to the Orang Kaya Maha Raja village and Orang Kaya Lela Pahlawan.
