Puteri Gunung Ledang



We had seen the film of Puteri Gunung Ledang in the class. The film is about the forbidden romance that blossomed between Gusti Putri, a Javanese Hindu princess, and Hang Tuah, a Malay Muslim warrior from Melaka.

Puteri Gunung Ledang

Actually, I had heard the story of Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat since I was in secondary school. When the lecturer asked us about what do we think about Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat and who of them was the hero, I had think a lot of this question. 

Hang Tuah

I found that Hang Tuah represented obedience to the authority while Hang Jebat represented loyalty to his comrade. We cannot decide whether loyalty or obedience is more important. I think that this is all depends on our value system. If we already choose the thing that we believe in, we have to trust our decision.
