In the rains a little rice is cultivated in the plains; further 

 some few vegetables, pine-apples, bananas, mangos and other 

 fruittrees; and here and there one finds a small pepper plantation, 

 but on the whole the cultivated area of Koh Chang is quite 

 minimal. 



I am indebted to Admiral de Richelieu for kind information 

 about the geographic Siamese names within the explored area. 



Notice. In Map and following lists of localities a few Siamese 

 words are often used: 

 Koh: island, 



Klong: river, canal, creek, 

 Lem : headland, 

 Ao: bay, 



Noi: little, small, 

 Jai: great, large.
