FRASER HILL

FRASER HILL’S BACKGROUND

• Fraser Hill is named after Louis James Fraser (1841[7]–
1916[8]), a Scottish trader and accountant

• After a failed gold mining venture in Australia, he migrated to the
Federated Malay States in 1890 looking for a new venture in tin
mining.

• Initially, Fraser was reported as having disappeared in 1910,[13]
however, the latest research by R. Hale in 2019 uncovered that
he retired from his position and returned to Great Britain in
1910 and died while vacationing in Austria-Hungary in 1916.

FUN FACT ABOUT FRASER HILL

Summer Retreat
Fraser’s Hill – actually seven hills -, provided welcome relief for the British expatriate
community from the simmering heat of Kuala Lumpur, 75 kilometres to the south. The
British were fond of playing golf and a 9-hole golf course was built in 1925 atop Louis
Fraser’s former tin mines by Frank Hemmant, a well-known golf course designer.
