I am not really interested in entertaining such a contentious question on this forum, especially since it seems to have little to do with keris.
Many nations reconstruct their history somewhat, including, i dare say, Malaysia.
I does seem strange to me however that a cabinet depicting such clear human form would be the product of a Islamic culture. It should also be understood that the history of Ayutthaya was recorded by many others besides the Thai themselves as they traded openly with states as far away as France.
