during his career period in Malaya. Frank Swettenham or Sir FrankAthelstaneSwettenham
(1850.1946) was the Former Resident. the first Resident General of the Federated Malay
States (F.M.S), then the Governor of the Straits Settlement and the High Commissioner of
the F.M.S. His skill, tact, tolerant cynicism and self confidence, supported by his fluency
in the Malay language and his vast knowledge of the Malay custom had helped him in
developing and building relationship with the Malay Sultans, which eventually led to the
formation of the F.M.S. and changed the British policy towards the Malay States after
1860s. |
