Berikut ini adalah email saya pada Mr. Donald Pietro Tick (ahli sejarah kerajaan-kerajaan Nusantara di Negeri Belanda) mengenai beberapa kerajaan-kerajaan kecil di Sumatera Timur. Semoga bermanfaat.

Dear Mr. Donald,
My friend, a fellow historian from North Sumatra send me a book entitled Sari Sejarah Serdang I by Tengku Luckman Sinar. It is very interesting book because within this book there are information about many principalities in East Sumatera, such as:Deli, Serdang, Langkat, Asahan, Senembah, Bedagai, Denai, Percut, etc. If you need this book, I can copy it for you and then send it to your wife in Banjarmasin. Below are some informations you can get from this book.
