Is it wrong to admire Hang Tuah?



Hang Tuah  was a legendary warrior who lived in Malacca during the reign of Sultan Mansur Shah in the 15th century. He was supposedly the most powerful of all the laksamana, or admirals, and is considered by the Malays to be one of history's greatest silat masters. Hang Tuah is held in the highest regard, even in present-day Malay culture, and is arguably the most well-known and illustrious warrior figure in Malay history and literature
There's a lot of debate over Hang Tuah’s existence, his characteristics, or even his leadership skills. Some people even said that it is wrong to admire him.
As we all know, Hang Tuah is too loyal and he got his own philosophy of "loyalty without question". His philosophy make him become so loyal and willing to kill his friend even knowing that Hang Jebat was condemned to death for something he did not do.

As for me, to kill his fellow comrades is not something admirable at all.

It is not wrong to adore him as Malay warrior because that is what he is. It's just some part of him that are not to be proud of. 
His services to Melaka is unquestionable; but for me, he is still lack of leadership skills. No doubt, he can be called as excellent in serving the Sultan of Melaka, but I don't think he is qualify enough to be consider as good leader.
But his unforgettable stories are still inspirational and can motivate every Malaysians.
