The 1915 Kelantan Rebellion: A Sultan Defies British Rule
In this episode of The Story of Malaysia, Lucas and Luna explore the 1915 Kelantan Rebellion, a forgotten uprising against British colonial authority. When Sultan Muhammad IV of Kelantan signed the Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909, he handed control of his state to the British, but tensions simmered. Enter Tok Janggut, a religious teacher and warrior who led a peasant revolt against British taxation and interference. The rebellion was crushed by British-led forces, but it exposed the fragility of colonial rule and the deep loyalty of Malays to their sultan. Lucas unpacks the causes, the key figures like Tok Janggut and British advisor W. A. Graham, and the rebellion's aftermath, including the controversial exile of the sultan and the execution of Tok Janggut. Learn about the role of the Siamese invasion, the impact of the Anglo-Siamese Treaty, and how this revolt foreshadowed later nationalist movements. A tale of defiance, betrayal, and the struggle for Malay sovereignty.
