PERLIS
Perlis is a small state on the west coast of the Malay Peninsula, the area being about 316 square miles. It is situated to the north of Kedah, and its conditions are practically identical with those of Kedah. The British Advisers have followed the policy which marks British control in the Federated Malay States, and the active co- operation of the Raja and his' Council has led to a great improvement in the internal administration since the assufiption of British suzerainty in 1909. The Federated Malay States have completed the extension of their railway system through Perlis to link up with the Thailand railway system. Rail communication with Bangkok has been maintained since the 1st July, 1918.
