KELANTAN

This State lies on the Eastern Coast of the Malay Peninsula between latitudes 4 deg. 35 min. and 6 deg. 15 min. North and longitudes 101 deg. 22 min. and 102 deg. 37 min. East, with a coast line of 60 miles on the China Sea. It embraces an area of 5,713 square miles. Southern Kelantan is mountainous but Northern Kelantan is a rich alluvial plain, drained by the Kelantan and Golok Rivers and their tributaries.

According to the Census of 1931 the population was 369,411 as compared with 309,300, in 1921.

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, poultry, cattle, dried fish and silk textiles. The climate is healthier than in other parts of the Peninsula, there being a distinct cold season from October to February. The temperature seldom exceeds 90 deg. and sometimes falls to 62 deg., while the average rainfall is about 120 inches, a year.

Mr. J. Scott Mason, as British Adviser, took over the supervision of affairs from Mr. W. A. Graham, the Siamese Commissioner, on July 15th, 1909.
