Trengganu is on the eastern coast of the Malay peninsulsar. Control was passed from Thailand to GB in 1909 and a British advisor appointed in 1919. Trengganu joined the Federation of Malaya in February 1948 and became part of Malaysia in 1963. Overprints were used during the Japanese occupation of WW2.
