Abstract

Kuala Lumpur became popular in 1880 since the British administration centre was located in the city thus replacing Klang as the capital city of Selangor. People saw the business potential of Kuala Lumpur when the city was later chosen as the capital of Federated Malay States in 1896. Hence, the city became the best business platform due to its high status. Even though milk industry was not as extravagant as mining industry and it was not the primary business in the economy of Kuala Lumpur, milk industry was significant in the aspect of food source and health benefit. Hence, the distribution process and marketing of fresh milk was strictly controlled according to its rules. This article will be discussing the development of milk industry in Kuala Lumpur in early 20 century and the factors that influenced the business during that time as well as how the milk business was carried out in Kuala Lumpur. The most data used in this article are primary sources and the scope of the discussion is narrowed to Kuala Lumpur in early 20 century.
