KELANTAN

This State is situated in the extreme north-eastern end of the Peninsula, between latitudes 4:45° and 6-25° North and between longitudes 101 30° and 102:40° East, with a coast-line of 60 miles on the China Sea. It embraces an area of from 5,000 to 5,500 square miles. It is a mountainous country, with rich alluvial plains, and is drained by the Kelantan River and its tributaries.

Kota Bahru, at the mouth of the Kelantan river, is the capital, but the chief port is Tumpat on the other side of the delta. The Sultan and the British Resident reside at Kota Bahru.

Chiefly agricultural, Kelantan is believed to be rich in minerals, and much prospect- ing may be expected to be done in the next few years. The chief exports are padi and rice, copra and rubber, cattle and dried fish. The climate is comparable with other parts of the Peninsula. The temperature seldom exceeds 90° and rarely falls below 69°, while the average rainfall is about 120 inches a year.
