Legend has it that northeastern Perak was once a Hindu kingdom
Kingdom of Gonga
(Gangga Negara). Archaeological finds have also proved that Perak was inhabited in prehistoric times.
The modern history of Perak is in
The Malacca Dynasty
It only began to develop after its demise - the last sultan of the Malacca dynasty
Sultan Mamsha
His eldest son, Muzaffar Shah, fled the kingdom when the Portuguese attacked Malacca in 1511 and founded a new dynasty on the banks of the Perak River in 1528, establishing Tanah Abang as the first Sultan of Perak.
Between the 16th and 18th centuries, Perak was abundant
Tin ore
It often faced threats from the Siamese people in the north and the Aceh and Wugis people in the south, and was also pursued by European colonial powers.
The Dutch captured Malacca in 1641, ending 130 years of Portuguese rule. The Dutch took a relatively flexible approach to trade and gradually extended their sphere of influence throughout the Malay Peninsula and in Perak
Pangkor Island
Forts were built to secure their trade at the mouth of the Tiending River. The Dutch took control
The Strait of Malacca
And monopolized the tin mining industry.
The Dutch tried to persuade Sultan Muzaffasa to take over the tin mining industry in Perak, but all failed. Later, the Dutch successfully forced the Sultan of Perak to sign a treaty through the Kingdom of Aceh to monopolize the tin mining industry. On August 15, 1650, the Dutch built a factory in Guarapak, which caused the dissatisfaction of the Perak royal family.
In 1651,
Temanggong
Led the crowd to destroy the factory and cause the Dutch to leave Perak. In 1655, the Dutch sent emissaries to Perak to renew the treaty and seek compensation for the destruction of the factory. After the negotiations failed, the Dutch army surrounded the Perak dynasty, and the Perak surprised the Dutch army under United Aceh and Ujung Salang. Hearing that the Siamese Empire was about to attack them, the Perak Dynasty allowed the Dutch who had returned to Perak to build Kota Belanda (formerly Kota Kayu) on Pangkor Island in 1670. Nevertheless, in 1685, Perak drove the Dutch from Pangkor. The Dutch tried to rewrite the treaty, but failed.
In the 18th century, the Bugis, Aceh and Siam attempted to attack the Perak Dynasty. Competing for tin trading rights in Perak, the Bugis invaded Perak in 1728 and again in 1742, and sabotaged the Kedah Minangkabau's efforts to gain Perak's support. This also made it impossible for the Dutch to obtain exclusive rights to Perak tin mines although they signed a contract with Perak Li. 1824
Anglo-dutch treaty
After the signing, the Dutch withdrew their influence in Peninsular Malaysia, and the British gradually took control of Peninsular Malaysia.
In 1820, British intervention prevented Siam from annexing Perak to its territory.
Around 1840, Long Jaafar found tin mines in the port and named the port Larut (now known as Taiping), and he also organized Chinese to come to mine tin and even provided loans. Tin mines were subsequently discovered elsewhere, attracting large numbers of Chinese to mine. Chinese gangs formed in the area to compete for ownership of the mines. Two Chinese gangs, the Guangfu Yixing Company and the Hakka Haishan Company, fought for territory in 1861 and 1865, starting the Nailu War.
After the death of childless Sultan Ali of Perak in 1871, a succession dispute ensued, with Deputy King Raja Abdullah wooing the Company to support his succession. Prime Minister Bendahara Ismail also enlisted the help of Seamount to strengthen his power. Perak had long been Mired in succession problems and was unable to maintain local law and order. The expansion of the Naruto War threatened the security of Penang, prompting the intervention of the British. In order to regain the throne, Raja Abdullah expressed his wish to the British to place Perak under British protection.
In 1874, the British Governor General, Sir Andrew Clarke, and Raja Abdullah signed the treaty
Treaty of Pangkor
". The treaty stipulated that Raja Abdul Lala would replace Ismail as Sultan of Perak, and that Perak would receive a British Resident, who would administer all government affairs except for Malay religious practices. In addition, Perak ceded Pangkor Island and the coastal area of Dindings to the Straits Settlements; As for the war of Nauru, it was also peacefully settled through the mediation of the Conference. Perak became the first dynasty to accept British participation in politics.
The British soon established administrative units to assist the Sultan in the administration of the state. The first secretary of state, James W.W. Birch, was assassinated by a number of local chiefs in 1875, triggering the brief Perak War of 1876, because his tactics were too high and angered the Sultan and chiefs. The British Straits Settlement government sent in large numbers of troops to maintain security and exiled Sultan Abdullah to the Seychelles. His successor, Sir Hugh Low, who was familiar with Malay cultural traditions, was able to manage government affairs with the cooperation of local chiefs and Chinese leaders. He introduced rubber trees and in 1885 approved the construction of a building from Taiping to
Port of Guaranadin
It was the first railway in Malaysia. The railway speeds up the transport of Simi to the port.
[5]
In 1896, Perak was formed along with Selam, Sembilan and Pahang
Federated Malay States
However, the British Secretary of State system remained in use until 1948
The Union of Malaya
Until the establishment of.
In 1942, Perak was also invaded by the Japanese.
On 31 August 1957, Perak and
The Union of Malaya
Ten other states won their independence from the British government. British North Borneo, Sarawak and Singapore joined the Union of Malaya on 16 September 1963
Malaysia
(Singapore gained independence from Malaysia in 1965).
The events of 2008
On March 8, 2008, Malaysia held the 12th General election.
People's League
He narrowly won by a three-seat majority
National Front
And in control of state power,
Parti Islam Malaysia
Nizhar is the state Secretary of Perak. After coming to power in November, three Pakatan Harapan state assemblymen, Jamaluddin, Mohamad Othman and Koh Yue-fung, quit Pakatan Harapan and declared themselves pro-BN independent state assemblymen. During this period, Perak Secretary of State Nizha had an audience with Sultan Azlan Shah of Perak to ask for royal assent to dissolve the state Assembly so that new state elections could be held. However, Sultan Azlan Shah of Perak did not agree to dissolve the state Assembly, but ordered the Perak Secretary of the People's League, Nizha, to resign immediately together with the Cabinet members. The Sultan also said that if the Pakatan Rakyat state government did not do so, the posts of state Secretary and all executive councillors would be considered vacant. The Sultan later accepted the election by Barisan Nasional
Zambiri
Sworn in as the new minister. A constitutional crisis broke out. Although Nitcha later filed a court challenge to the legitimacy of the Barisan Nasional minister, the Federal court eventually ruled that the Sultan's action was constitutional, setting a precedent of change. According to the situation in Perak, Barisan Nasional did not launch a no-confidence motion against the former Minister Nizha by holding the state Assembly, but passed the power of the Sultan to appoint ministers, that is, the state power was transferred to Barisan Nasional. Based on the unanimous decision of the Fifth Division of the Federal Court against Nitcha on 9 February 2010, interpreting the constitutional issue, that under section 16 (6) of the Perak Constitution, the office of Secretary of State of Perak can be vacated under four circumstances, The Perak State Assembly has not been dissolved, the Perak State Assembly has not tabled a motion of no confidence in the State Minister and the State Minister has not resigned. The Federal Court has also ruled that the Sultan can decide without a vote whether a minister has the support of a majority of seats, as a vote on a no-confidence motion does not have to be held through the state Assembly. In addition, the Federal Court ruled that the Sultan has the power to remove a minister if he refuses to resign after losing the support of a majority of seats.

The name Thunderbolt comes from "The Story of the Silver Arrow". At that time, the son of Kedah's first ruler was looking for a new base. He came to a branch of the river. There was an ocean in front of him. In the ocean were four small islands. The prince shot silver arrows at the islands, and the silver arrows landed on one of the islands, which he called Pulau Intra Sakti, or Thunderbolt.
The second allusion relates to the local Semang ethnic group. The Johor ruler sent his men to the north in search of a base. On the way, he met a Semon girl with white blood from her wounds. He thought she was not an ordinary person and married her. Then, while the girl was bathing, a lump of white foam on the river floated a little girl, and took the little girl home. It's an auspicious sign. In Indian culture, white is a sacred color. This means that it is an auspicious place.
Third, the third is closer to the truth. This reference comes from the Perak Book, where after Sultan Mahmud passed the throne of Malacca to Raja Alauddin Riasah on his deathbed, Raja Muzaffar ran away, went to Tin in Sumatra, and then to Klang, where he met a businessman who was doing business with Perak. He was then brought to Perak by a merchant who made him ruler, later Sultan Muzahisa, the first Sultan of Perak.
