FEDERATED MALAY STATES

The Protected States comprise four Residencies, namely, Perak, Selangor, Negri Sembilan, and Pahang. These have been federated, the federation taking effect from the 1st July, 1896, and the administration is presided over by a British Officer styled the Chief Secretary, who is subject to the High Commissioner to the Malay States, who is also Governor of the Straits Settlements. Each State has its own Resident and the native rulers retain their titles and dignity. The Federal Offices are at Kuala Lumpur, Selangor. The Federal Council was inaugurated on 16th December, 1909.

The record of these States is one of progress and prosperity. The revenue for 1915 was $10,774,984 (£4,757,081), and the expenditure $42,838,613 (£4,997,840). Included in the expenditure is the item £1.561,095 for Miscellaneous services, largely made up of instal- ments for the battles! p Malaya, presented to the British Navy by the F.M.S. The assets on December 31, 1915, stood at $41,476,236 (£4,838,894). These States have 872 miles of railway in the Malay Peninsula (paid for out of current revenue), yielding good income;
