Development history

The town was founded in the early 20th century, while its shophouses were constructed between 1910s and 1930s, when Kedah was under British protection at that time. During that period many local people including Chinese and Indian migrant worked at rubber estates that were formerly owned by British companies. One of the earliest schools was Lunas English School. Today, there are still many well-preserved gems such as pre-war shophouses, a traditional "wooden bungalow on stilts" post office, and the colonial-style Soon Cheng Sai mansion.
