At its centre was ‘Centre Village’ (or Kongsi in Chinese) containing the main administrative office. It had 15 plantation managers' houses, a clubhouse with swimming pool for senior managers and another for middle management. Three of the plantation manager houses have been destroyed since it was sold in 1966. The senior management clubhouse has been used as a shooting club since 1970. The estate had a rubber collection factory and a DC electric powerhouse half a mile (800 m) from the office. Along the way from centre administration office to E Village were 80 to 100 houses for factory and clerical workers, a hospital with three doctors and five nursing quarters. The estate hospital provided a standard of care broadly in line with British hospitals. Clean water was supplied by a power plant in "C3 Village". A few sundry shops were available for provisions, along with laundry, bus and lorry company depot, Chinese school (primary Chung Hua) established in 1937. Some of the Chinese students extended their tertiary education and qualified as Engineers, accountants etc.) A Tamil school operated at the Centre Village. A football field was placed in front of the small police station. At the peak of the production, from the 1930s to 1966, the plantation was divided into 10 villages. Each village housed 200 to 300 workers who were mostly Chinese except in Centre Village where Indian workers lived. Sungai Tebu (river) ran through the plantation and its source was South Village. Each village produced about 6,000 to 8,000 kg of latex/day or about three million kilogrammes of rubber a year from 1930 to 1966. The plantation was sold in 1966. References
