This is exciting. You took to the towns less traveled. I believe the name Kampar, derives from the people of Kampar, a region in Sumatera island. The Kampar people were employed by the Malay aristocrats in early 19th century as labours in early tin mining boom in Kinta Valley. Kampar town, Ipoh city and the towns nearby are all within a region called Kinta valley, the richest tin mines in the whole wide world in 19th and 20th centuries. How come there are thousand of Chinese occupied Kampar, Ipoh and the towns in Kinta valley? During tin mining booms in 19th century, Malay royalty gave concessions to British mining companies and Malay aristocrats. The British companies brought coolies from south China to work in their mines and the Malay aristocrats brought coolies from Sumatera island to work in their tin mines. However, things got out of hands between 2 groups of Chinese clans - Ghee Hin and Hai San, to conquer the tin mines in Kinta Valley. Things get worse when Perak Sultanate grab for power, 3 figures of Malay royalty wanted to become Sultan, the ruler of the state of Perak. The consequences of this was Larut War. Therefore, when things were not in order and all hell broke loose, one candidate of Malay royalty named Raja Abdullah dealt with British governor in Singapore to intervene in Perak matter. Raja Abdullah signed an agreement with Sir Andrew Clarke, the British governor in Singapore, called the treaty of Pangkor. The treaty proclaimed British supported Raja Abdullah as the 🆕 sultan of Perak and in exchange the 🆕 sultan allowed British to take care of Perak administration and economy, called the Resident system. With this agreement, British sent army troops into Perak to stop the Larut War between Ghee Hin and Hai San, installed Raja Abdullah as the 🆕 sultan of Perak, implementing the resident system, took control of the state administration, mining and taxation. Starting 1874, British has brought thousands of Chinese labours from southern China to work in tin mines all over Kinta Valley, the richest tin mines in the world. That's how Chinese population booming in the Kinta valley, and in the tin mines towns such as Kampar, Ipoh, Taiping, etc, etc.
Thank you so much for adding all of this information in the comments section. I have pinned your comment to the top of the video so people have easier access to learn more about Kampar’s history.
The word Kampar means Golden Ingot, because of the richest of the Tin ores in the mines. In this town there are many mountains, waterfalls, valleys with springs of waters. This town is very prosperous and busy during our grandparents or great grandfathers occupancy way back in 1910s and 1920s. During those days our town is very busy with only 2 mains roads one is Jalan Idris and the other one is Jalan Gopeng which is connected towards Ipoh and other smaller towns near Kampar. Our town have been installed with a few steel ships for the Tin ore project and was managed by the British people during those days.
Wow! You both really had a great time in Kampar! As a Malaysian, I am very proud to welcome you both to our country and especially to this humble town, Kampar. I was born in Ipoh,the capital of Perak and in 2017, decided to shift to Kampar as it has a lower cost of living plus endless green hills, vast open ex-mining lands and ponds filled with fish and hundreds of egrets flying around. In short, it is a nice calm, naturally beautiful place to live.Your linguistics skills is 100% amazing and I salute you for mastering an array of languages and even some Chinese dialects! I just turned 71 on 26/10/23 and had retired from my 46 years of non-stop working in the automobile trade namely with Toyota (40 yrs) and Mazda (6yrs).Hope to meet you both again and if not,at least via your YT uploads. Keep visiting,keep exploring and you will be amazed at what Malaysia has to offer! Take care and all the best! David.

Born in Kampar Hospital, moved to New Zealand when I was 5 years old. I can't wait to go back and visit, used to go back every 2-3 years during my teenage years, now at the age of 38 haven't been back for almost 13 years!
