KELANTAN
This State lies on the Eastern Coast of the Malay Peninsula between latitudes 4 deg. 32 min. and 6 deg. 15 min. North and longitudes 101 deg. 19 min. and 102 deg. 37 min. East. It embraces an area of 5,750 square miles. Behind a low sandy coast line of some 60 miles in length lies a fertile plain of about 1000 square miles in area, densely populated and closely cultivated with rice, coconut and fruit trees. South of this plain the country is hilly and broken.
The total population for year 1939 was 393, 983 of whom 344, 215 were Malays, 29,645 Chinese, 11,362 Indians and 100 Europeans.
Kota Bharu, six miles up the Kelantan River, is the capital, and the chief port is Tumpat at its mouth. His Highness the Sultan resides at Kota Bharu which is the capital and administrative headquarters of the State.

The chief exports are copra, rubber, betulnut, cattle, dried fish, jungle produce, tin ore, manganese ore and iron ore. The characteristic features of the climate are uniform temperature, high humidity, and copious rainfall, arising mainly from the situation of the State in the equatorial zone of constant precipitation. Actually the State is just far enough north and distant from the Straits of Malacca, for its climate to be appreciably affected by the Central Asian mountain mass. Most of the rest of the peninsula shares with Kelantan the heavy rainfall in November, December and January, during the North East Monsoon, but only Trengganu and
