That's the thing: The English don't use the word "conquered". They avoid using it. They believe in some form of parent-child relationship between them and the colonized countries. All commonwealth countries were under the British Empire, but we were not conquered. We were colonised.

Burney Treaty 1826 - The treaty acknowledged Siamese claims over the five northern Malay states of Kedah, Kelantan, Perlis, Terengganu—the future Unfederated Malay States—and Patani.
The treaty further guaranteed British possession of Penang and their rights to trade in Kelantan and Terengganu without Siamese interference.

Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909 - Thailand relinquished its claims to sovereignty over Kedah ,Kelantan , Perlis and Terengganu

Article 1
The Siamese government transfers to the British government all rights of suzerainty, protection, administration and control whatsoever which they possess over the states of Kelantan, Tringganu, Kedah, Perlis, and adjacent islands. The frontiers of these territories are defined by the boundary protocol annexed hereto.

‘Dead wrong’ to say Kedah was under Siamese rule, says professor


"In 1813, King Rama II commanded Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Shah of Kedah to bring the Sultanate of Perak under Siamese control. Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Shah then sent forces to capture and occupy Perak under the domination of Kedah on behalf of Siam in 1818.[4] This earned Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Shah a great favor of the Siamese king, who raised the sultan to the rank of Chao Phraya - which was superior to Nakhon Noi the governor of Ligor or Nakhon Si Thammarat who held the rank of Phraya. In 1811, Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Shah came into conflicts with his brother Tunku Bisnu. Tunku Bisnu approached Phraya Nakhon Noi of Ligor and sought Siamese support. Tunku Bisnu was then made the ruler of Setul. "

Not only was Kedah under Siamese rule, the Kedahan even helped to rogol other states.
Some historian would say Kedah is Siam's anjing.


This IIUM no teach real history ah? Or they drink lot of ketum and syabu same like Sanusi.

so if not conquered then why celebrate merdeka?

Better cancel this waste of tax payer money then.

best thing is, british dem smart to play on both side

kedah blockade 1838 - arms, ammunition and other stuff were smuggled by British merchants in Penang to the Kedah Sultan's army

That is also why some historian claim that some states in Malaysia were never conquered.

There is also a term in the proclaimation of indepedence that stated 'termination of agreements' between British and Malay rulers. Normally, no conquered land have agreements with the conqueror. So in this aspect, colonisation by British were not 'considered' as conquered.

Buku sejarah during my Form 2 time also said "Kedah ditakluki oleh Siam", how?

this tactic taken from the Romans or earlier. control the populace, but don't touch their religion, otherwise you'll get a rebellion very quickly.

And we here argue thanks to fatty at Kedah that can't find a single sen for their state, instead of finding solution, he create more problem

I remember my history lessons decades ago - the words used were penjajahan, dijajah, etc.

What is the Malay equivalent for "colonisation"?

kennot.
indian nuke not yet nerf

Also please withdraw from the Commonwealth Conference and Games

As per the treaty said, "Acknowledged Siamese claims".

This was done without representation of the 5 Malay states.

British need only a guarantee for their expension without interference from Siam. They are not really interested in the legallity of it, whether it exist of not.

Kedah only dijajah ford raptor

later they question "siapa publisher buku, must be c*na yang buat hal trying to putar history"

btw Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin, Sultan Kedah during that time was in exile @ Penang when it happened. he fleed during the 1821 war and was eventually restored to the Kedah Sultanate in 1842 under Siamese suzerainty

Last time whole of malaydia under malacca. So have pay malacca la..malacca king was parameswara from Indonesia. So have to ask Indonesia.

Shiok sendiri statement.

Dongzong and DAP only believe in Siam history textbooks, not your history book. 🤭

Vassal is correct..too bad most M’s command of English is not to that level yet, neither are their general knowledge capacity. No need to ask if pas is smart or just silo in what they know, kambing lagi pandai.
