During the current year Survey has commenced 
and the beaconing for Major Triangulation has 
been completed ; several important traverses have

Agricultural 6. The principal planting concern in 
and Mining Trengganu is the East Asiatic Corn- 
prospects. pany’s estate of Kretai Plantations — 
about 12,000 acres in all. The culti- 
vated area is approximately 4,000 acres of coconuts 
and 4,500 acres of rubber. 
The principal tin mines (lode) are Bundi, Sungai 
Ayam, and Kajang, in Kemaman; there are rich 
wolfram mines at Chenderong (Kemaman) and 
Dungun. A dredging company (Malaya Tin Cor- 
poration, Ltd.) has been formed to work the Bundi 
alluvial land and a dredge — the first in Trengganu — ^ 
is now being constructed. 
The geological formations that contain the 
famous tin lodes of the Pahang Consolidated Com- 
pany, just South of the Trengganu border, extend 
North into Trengganu through the Kemaman, Paka, 
and Dungun districts. The rich lode mines already 
found lie in this area, and confidence is felt that, 
the mining possibilities of the country are great. 
The supposed approaching exhaustion of alluvial 
tin-fields in the Western States is a factor that is 
drawing increased attention to the untouched areas 
of Trengganu.

Malay States Enactments, already
