Talk:Gajah Mada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Who is Gajah Mada?
This King, or another with a similar reign, isn't mentioned in : "A History of Modern Asia", M.C. Ricklefs. Because this article is based on internet sources it may be - as Majapahit- partly or even completly wrong... --SoIssetEben! 18:44, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
History of Indonesia contains the same informations --SoIssetEben! 18:47, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

- The King itself, or another with a similar reign, doesn't - according to the book I've mentioned above - exist. The disposer according to the book:
- King Jayanagara 1309-28
- Queen Tribhuwana Wijayottunga Dewi 1328-50
- King Rajasanagara (Hayam Wuruk) 1350-89
-
- The last King is named as the greatest of the dynasty, but the reign is too different from this king here. Please read my first statement for further assumptions. --SoIssetEben! 20:55, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I am an Indonesian and I'd like to say something about this. Actually Gajah Mada was a prime minister (as mentioned at the beginning of this article), and not a king!. He was like Bismarck, and King Rajasanagara (Hayam Wuruk) was like Wilhelm I (the German Emperor) of Hohenzollern. The article's information is more or less the same as what's being taught to Indonesia's elementary school students. Rgds XoXo 19:31, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
