The Sejarah Melayu was known as a famous literary work in History textbooks, however in the wikipedia.com, it was known as a historical Malay literary work that chronicles the establishment of the Malacca Sultanate and spans over 600 years of the Malay Peninsula’s history. It is unknown that the sejarah melayu to be a fact or fiction as both information from different sources explains different things. As an example, the story of Sang Nila Utama’s interesting account of the founding of Singapura had made us to ask ourselves if the part when he threw the crown into the sea and the violent storm broke out suddenly – were being exaggerated. Still, it’s a mystery for us to discover if Sang Nila Utama do exists during that time or just a creation. So, if we were to tell that the information is accurate or reliable, I guess the only solution is to corroborate and cross-referencing with peoples to compare both sources is the same or different.
