Thought it might interest some readers. Since it did mention Alexander the Great.

35mb PDF file scan from Singapore National Library. Yes, it's free, no scam, no registration, no password hunting. Just that you cannot copy, edit or print the text of the file.

Wonder how it holds up to the Dewan Pustaka dan Bahasa's Malay version.

I studied malay annals to understand my roots.

From my opinion, its a biased work as the one writing it is DKK - or indian muslim people. So the history are written biased as what they should be.

Second, its 70 percent fictional than historical.

No wonder the malays never learn from history. They don't have a single good history book about themselves. Haih.
