PAHANG.
The state of Pahang lies between Tringganu and Johor, and extends along the eastern side of the peninsula from 2 deg. 40 min. to 4 deg. 35 min. N., its coast line being about 130 miles in length. The area of the state is estimated at 10,000 square miles, and its principal river, which drains a large extent of country, is known by the same name. The river Pahang is, however, owing to its shallowness, navigable for small craft only. The country is sparsely populated, there being about 63,000 inha- bitants, of whom fully 60,000 are Malays. Pahang has during the past few years come into notice owing to its valuable mines of gold and tin, many of which are now being exploited, and will soon be worked scientifically. Several companies with large capital have been formed for the purpose and have commenced operations.
The capital of the state is Pekan, a town situated a few miles from the mouth of the river Pahang, where is also the seat of Government. The state is under British protection, and in August, 1888, the Sultan, acting under the advice of the Sultan of Johor, applied for a British Resident to assist in the administration of the country, which request was acceded to in October of that year.
