Malahayati is a warlord from Aceh. He led 2000 Inong Balee troops (women who were widows of the Acehnese soldiers who died in the war in the Malacca Strait). He fought against the Dutch forces on September 11, 1599 and killed Cornelis de Houtman in a one-on-one battle on the deck of the ship. He earned the title of Admiral for his courage, so he became better known as Admiral Malahayati.
Malahayati is the first Muslim in the archipelago and even the world that became admiral in modern day shipping. When most of the people of this country have not thought about emancipation, he has broken the newly discussed gender boundaries.
Malahayati received a military education after the pesantren. He entered the naval department of the military academy of the Kingdom of Aceh, Ma'had Baitul Makdis. The famous military academy of the Aceh Kingdom built on the support of Sultan Selim II, the Ottoman Turki ruler.
Admiral Malahayati is the son of the Commander of the Kingdom of Aceh named Admiral Mahmud Shah. His grandfather, Muhammad Said Shah, was also a prominent admiral.
Hopefully useful lest we forget the history.
