- Megat Iskandar Shah was the second Sultan of Malacca and also the son of Parameswara. The position of Megat Iskandar Shah as the second ruler of Malacca has historically been contested. In the 2005 book, Admiral Zheng He & Southeast Asia published by the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, Professor Wang Gungwu in his paper ‘The First Three Rulers of Melaka’ published in 1968, puts forward strong reasoning to support the fact that Megat Iskandar Shah was the second ruler of Malacca. This fact is recognised in Malaysian school text books. It is to note that both Tomé Pires's Suma Oriental as well as the Sejarah Melayu (Malay Annals) do not have references to Megat Iskandar Shah but describe that Iskandar Shah had ruled Malacca until 1424. Sir Richard Winstedt who earlier in 1935 supported the existence of Megat Iskandar Shah, soon after the Second World War changed his opinion when he became aware of the descriptions from the Suma Oriental.
