 * 1. Well, Tia Dalma can teleport herself from one continent to another (as seen in Legends of the Brethren Court: Day of the Shadow) but teleporting a dozen pirates might be more difficult. Therefore, it's quote possible they high jacked some merchant ship, sailed to Singapore, and then lost the ship in some storm off the coast of said city, which is why thy needed another vessel from Sao Feng. Don't forget that concept art for AWE shows some huge ship on the edge of World's End, not some small Chinese junk.
 * 2. I agree with J Fan. If Ragetti knew the importance of the Piece of Eight that Barbossa gave him, he would become the Pirate Lord immediately after the events of The Price of Freedom. But Ragetti didn't know what that piece of wood really is, just as Barbossa didn't know its meaning. As stated here - "Hector Barbossa, not a man to be trustead. He lead the mutiny against Jack and eventually became a Pirate Lord himself." - Barbossa became the Pirate Lord after he stole the Black Pearl, therefore, he didn't the meaning of the Piece of Eight until after the mutiny.
