Description

Tun Perak passed away in 1498, and was succeeded as Bendahara by his brother Tun Puteh, who died only 2 years later. Tun Mutahir was appointed next, thus achieving his goal of becoming a Bendahara, a position he was seeking since 1488. Malacca continued to flourish under his guidance, but the court was now thronged and dominated by Tamil merchants, ready to buy their way to royal favour. Their monopoly in trade made them despised by other traders, and Malay chiefs and commoners hated the arrogant and greedy 'Jawa Pekan' strutting like rulers. In 1510, Tun Mutahir was accused of plotting against the Sultan, and was executed.
