PADANG
Padang, the capital of the West Coast of Sumatra, is situated 100 deg. 20 min. 30 sec. E. longitude and 59 min. 30 sec. S. latitude. The population, numbered 51,976 of whom 2,624 (1,313 males, 1,309 female) Europeans, 40,694 (23,084 male, 17,610 female) Natives, 7,212 (3,945 male, 3,259 female) Chinese, 1,156 (753 male, 703 female) other foreign Orientals according to Census, 7th of October, 1930. Padang has a splendid natural harbour, tlie "Emmaliaven," with up to-date wharfage facilities. The place is an important market for Import and Export articles. The produce of the West Coast, such as coffee, copra, cassia-vera, rattan, gum damar, rubber, hides, nutmegs, mace, cloves, etc., are shipped to the different ports of the world. The beautiful highlands, 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 more or less equally divided over the whole year. However June, and July are considered to be the dry period. .⠀ ⠀
