THE FIRST SETTLEMENT IN KAJANG WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1709. IN 1807, KAJANG WAS FOUND BY
RAJA HAZRIL PENDEK DAN AINUL AFTER THE KLANG WAR. BECAUSE OF ITS CENTRAL LOCATION, IT
WAS MADE THE DISTRICT CAPITAL OF HULU LANGAT.
KAJANG AS A MODERN TOWN OWES ITS RISE IN PARTICULAR TO THE COFFEE ESTATES WHICH WERE
OPENED UP AROUND IT IN THE 1890S. ONE OF THE FAMOUS COFFEE ESTATES WERE INCH KENNETH
ESTATE MANAGED BY THE KINDERSLEY BROTHERS WHO WERE AMONG THE FIRST TO PLANT RUBBER IN
THE COUNTRY ON A COMMERCIAL BASIS. ANOTHER WAS PERANG BESAR (GREAT WAR) ESTATE,
OPENED BY SOME BRITISH EX-SERVICEMEN LED BY COLONEL HENRY GOUGH, WHO WAS THE PIO-
NEER OF BUD-GRAFTING OF RUBBER TREES IN THE COUNTRY.
ONE OF THE MOST NOTABLE HISTORY IN THIS TOWN WOULD BE THE FORMATION OF GANG 09. THE
LEADER IS ALSO THEIR VERY OWN HOME-BORN BOY "'KING THENNI"'.

SANITARY LANDFILLS ARE SITES WHERE WASTE IS ISOLATE FROM THE ENVIRONMENT UNTIL IT IS SAFE.

CALLY.
