PADANG
the West Coast, such as coffee, copra, cassia vera, rattan, gum damar, hides, nutmegs, mace, cloves, etc., are shipped to the different ports of the world. The beautiful high- lands, with the centre Fort de Kock, offer plenty of opportunities for walking and motoring trips amidst most gorgeous scenery. Padang is one of the healthiest places on the Coast, land and sea breezes contributing materially to lower the temperature. Owing to the absence of monsoons no division of the year into a dry and a wet season can be made, the rainfall being equally divided over the whole year.
