The research paper explores the pro-Western sentiments among Malay rulers during the British colonial era, particularly highlighted by the Sultan of Perak's statements in 1924. He emphasized the rapid prosperity and progress of the Malay community under British rule, praising British administrators for their fairness and broad-mindedness. The Sultan advocated for the education of Malay youth in English culture and language, promoting activities like polo to foster mutual understanding between the Malay and British communities. Similar sentiments were echoed by the Regent of Perak.
