The 1915 Kelantan Rebellion: To' Janggut's Anti-Tax Revolt
In 1915, a rural Kelantanese headman named To' Janggut led a rebellion against British taxation and land laws imposed through the Siamese-British transfer of 1909. This episode explores the uprising's roots in resentment toward W.A. Graham's administration, the role of Islamic leaders like Haji Abdul Rahman, and the bloody suppression by the Malay States Guides. We examine the symbolism of To' Janggut's corpse being paraded and hung in Kota Bharu, and how the rebellion exposed the fragile legitimacy of colonial rule in the Unfederated Malay States. The episode also contrasts the rebellion with earlier resistance in Perak and Kedah, highlighting the unique dynamics of Kelantan's indirect British control.
