The Story of Malaysia: Trade Routes and Colonial Legacy — Fexingo History

The 1909 Anglo-Siamese Treaty and Malay State Borders

6 min5 juli 2026

In 1909, the Anglo-Siamese Treaty redrew the map of the Malay Peninsula, transferring Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan, and Terengganu from Siamese suzerainty to British control. This episode focuses on the treaty's negotiation, the role of Sir John Anderson, and the confusion it caused among local rulers like Sultan Abdul Hamid of Kedah. We explore how the treaty didn't just shift political control but also created new borders that split families and disrupted traditional trade routes. The show also touches on the little-known resistance of Sultan Zainul Abidin of Terengganu, who initially refused British advice. A short donation segment supports our ad-free mission.
