The Story of Iskandar Shah tomb
-
Ya know the tomb in Fort Canning...
Now we speaking about this and hope y'all can answer my riddles...Iskandar Shah was from Melaka who came to SG and rules.
Exploration series of Fort Canning Park
Though most of us know that let say for an example, you died in another country, your body will be sent back to the country you originated.
If it so, Iskandar Shah body should have been sent back to Melaka.
Now my question is did his body really got sent back?
If so... who is the one inside the tomb?
Read the article of Fort Canning Park -
some say iskandar shah is parameswara's son, but others say iskandar shah is para's new name when he converted to islam.

More recently, the Tomb of Iskandar Syah on Fort Canning is believed to be nothing more than just a shrine. No remains of any human kind was said to have been found. Instead, it is now believed that Sultan Iskandar Syah was actually buried in Malacca and not Singapore.
