Quotes 

• James A. FitzPatrick : [referring to Sultan Sir Ibrahim Al-Masyhur]  After his father's death, he returned to his inheritance, which was a broken down state with a gloomy future. But, he was an optimist then as he is now. He borrowed a million dollars and started the cultivation of rubber in Jahor. The results proved so successful that Jahor would eventually be restored.

• James A. FitzPatrick : [referring to Sultan Sir Ibrahim Al-Masyhur]  At an early age he was sent to Europe to be educated and his education, by no means, was limited to scholastic institutions. His wild and extravagant parties are said to have been partly responsible for depleting the treasury of Jahor.
