Still remembering today's heroes today I want to introduce a woman fighter who is so scared of her time is Keumalahayati or Malahayati. Malahayati was a daughter of Admiral Machmud Syah of the Aceh Empire.

Sultan Alauddin Mansur Syah strengthened his military power by building a powerful navy to which he decided to appoint Malahayati, a widowed Aceh warrior, as his First Admiral. Aceh soldiers and the other generals had always respected Malahayati. She had also proved herself a legendary commander during several battles with the Portuguese and Dutch.

The Emperor accepted him in peace until Houtman insulted him. The Dutch, who had clashed with the Sultanate of Banten in northwest Java before arriving in Aceh, decided to attack. Malahayati is an admiral in the naval Sultanate of Aceh, who ruled the region of modern Aceh province, Sumatra, Indonesia. He is the first female admiral in the modern world. The troops drawn from the widows of Aceh and the soldiers he named "Inong Balee" and he also led the "Inong Balee" troops, were in fact responding to the Dutch challenge, after some fierce fighting finally killed de Houtman on 11 September 1599. Malahayati met Maurits's emissaries for a treaty agreement. A ceasefire was agreed and the Dutch paid 50 thousand gulden as compensation for Paulus van Caerden actions, while Malahayati released Dutch prisoners. Malahayati's reputation as the guardian of the Aceh Kingdom led England to choose a peaceful, diplomatic method by which to enter the Malacca Strait. Malahayati was killed in combat while attacking the Portuguese fleet at Teuluk Krueng Raya. She was buried at lereng Bukit Kota Dalam from Banda Aceh.
