Salam buat semua. Hari ini, Khamis, 28 November 2024. Hari ini Atok dan Wan tak ke mana-mana. Hanya duduk kat rumah menanti anak-anak kami pulang hujung minggu ini. Dengar cerita, anak bongsu kami nak balik dari Manjung kerana cuti semester katanya. Alhamdulillah, insya Allah, hujung minggu riuh sikitlah rumah Atok dengan suara-suara anak yang balik.
Kali ini Atok nak bercerita tentang Tampin dan daerahnya. Atok kalau boring-boring, memang sesekali pergi healing kat pekan Tampin. Seronok kat sana. Betullah kata Ito dan kumpulan Blues Gang dalam lagu diorang,
"Kalau boleh nak bising-bising, macam pokan Tampin".
Memanglah Tampin lebih kecil daripada Seremban, tetapi kedudukannya di sempadan N. Sembilan dan Melaka memang special. Kalau korang nak tahu, antara specialnya Tampin ialah laluan kereta apinya dalam negeri Melaka tapi stesen kereta apinya dalam Negeri Sembilan. Tampin dah macam bandar Berlin di Jerman selepas Hitler kalah. Berlin Barat untuk tentera Bersekutu manakala Berlin Timur untuk tentera blok Komunis Rusia. Cuma takde tembok jer. Tampin di Negeri Sembilan, Pulau Sebang di Melaka. Dua pentadbiran, Majlis Daerah Tampin, dan satu lagi Majlis Perbandaran Alor Gajah.
Banyak benda yang korang boleh tengok kat sini. dan kalau korang ada masa spare, teruskan perjalanan ke Gemas, "Bandar Kereta Api"; macam KL jugalah tempat pertemuan dua sungai, Sungai Klang dan Sungai Gombak tapi kat sini pertemuan laluan kereta api Pantai Barat (JB-Gemas-KL-Padang Besar) dan laluan ke Pantai Timur (JB-Gemas-Tumpat). Bukan baru sekarang, tempat ini dah ada sejak zaman orang putih memerintah lagi. Perkhidmatan Komuter KTM dan ETS baru bermula dari sini. So, lain kali nak explore N. Sembilan dan Semenanjung ini kita gunakan perkhidmatan kereta api pula. Ubah pemandangan landskap. Asyik nampak sawit,sawit,sawit jer. Sesekali kita tengok suasana desa pedalaman dan hutan belantara pula.
Hehehe...Atok cakap jer, Atok pun belum naik lagi kereta api kecuali Komuter dari Seremban ke KL jer.... Okaylah, korang bacalah bahan yang Atok dah kumpulkan kali ini. Menarik sungguh, bukan nak memuji diri tapi memang berbeza dengan entri-entri sebelum ini. Kita Enjoy...Wassalam.
PERKEMBANGAN DAERAH DAN BANDAR TAMPIN
Daerah Tampin merupakan salah sebuah daripada 7 daerah yang terdapat dalam Negeri Sembilan. Daerah ini terletak di tenggara Negeri Sembilan bersempadan dengan daerah Jempol dan Kuala Pilah di utara, Rembau di barat, daerah Segamat dan daerah Tangkak, Johor di timur dan daerah Alor Gajah dan daerah Jasin, Melaka di selatan. Daerah ini berkeluasan 878 kilometer persegi dan mempunyai penduduk seramai 88,123 orang pada tahun 2020.
Secara geografi, sebahagian besar kawasan tanah pamah di daerah Tampin terletak di sebelah timur Banjaran Titiwangsa berbanding di sebelah barat, menjadikan daerah ini sebahagian daripada Negeri Sembilan timur, bersama-sama daerah Kuala Pilah, daerah Jempol dan daerah Jelebu. Gunung Tampin, iaitu penghujung selatan Banjaran Titiwangsa juga terletak di daerah ini, berhampiran dengan bandar Tampin.
Daerah Tampin ditadbir oleh Majlis Daerah Tampin dan berpusat di Tampin serta dibahagikan kepada tujuh mukim. Terdapat dua bandar dan sembilan pekan dalam daerah ini.
- Mukim Ayer Kuning, Mukim Gemas, Mukim Gemencheh, Mukim Keru, Mukim Repah, Mukim Tampin Tengah, Mukim Tebong
- Bandar Gemas, Bandar Tampin
- Pekan Air Kuning Selatan, Pekan Batang Melaka, Pekan Gemencheh, Pekan Repah, Pekan Tampin Tengah, Pekan Air Kuning, Pekan Pasir Besar, Pekan Repah Permai, Pekan Repah Jaya
Dari segi pentadbiran adat, daerah Tampin diperintah oleh dua luak yang berbeza, di mana Tebong, Keru, Repah dan Tampin Tengah diperintah oleh Tunku Besar Tampin sebagai Wilayah Adat Tampin, manakala Gemencheh, Ayer Kuning dan Pasir Besar (Gemas) merupakan tiga luak yang bernaung di bawah Johol.
Tampin ialah sebuah bandar yang kaya dengan sejarah dan kepentingan budaya, digambarkan dalam naratif yang dibentangkan. Perjalanan kawasan itu dari zaman awalnya, sebagai sebahagian daripada Luak Rembau pada abad ke-18, hingga penubuhan Majlis Daerah Tampin pada tahun 1980 menunjukkan evolusi dan pertumbuhannya. Perkembangan ini mencerminkan perubahan yang lebih luas dalam landskap sosio-politik Tanah Melayu, terutamanya dalam konteks zaman Darurat, yang memberi kesan kepada kehidupan harian dan perjalanan di rantau ini.
A. Sejarah Rumah Rehat Tampin
Dalam tahun 1890-an, Tampin yang terletak 24 batu dari Melaka, amat memerlukan Rumah Rehat. Pengembara ke Kuala Pilah yang melalui laluan ini akan mendapat manfaat daripada Rumah Rehat di Tampin, kerana ia akan memberikan mereka tempat yang selesa untuk berehat dan mengurangkan ketidakselesaan perjalanan yang ketara.
Rumah rehat yang sangat baik telah didirikan di Tampin dalam tahun 1898, memastikan tempat yang mesra untuk pelancong dan pekerja, memastikan mereka mempunyai tempat yang mesra untuk berehat dan memulihkan kesihatan.
Pengenalan rumah rehat moden di Tampin menandakan usaha untuk meningkatkan keselesaan pengembara, menyediakan kemudahan yang memudahkan pengalaman yang lebih menyenangkan bagi mereka yang melalui kawasan bersejarah ini. Rumah rehat sedemikian bukan sahaja menjadi ruang berfungsi tetapi juga tempat penglibatan budaya, menganjurkan cerita dan pengalaman yang menghubungkan pengunjung dengan warisan tempatan.
Keistimewaan Rumah Rehat Tampin
1. "Batu hidup" berfungsi sebagai simbol menawan gabungan alam, mitos dan sejarah Tampin. Jalinan kepercayaan penduduk tempatan yang mengelilingi batu-batu ini menyerlahkan kekayaan budaya kawasan itu, menekankan cara masyarakat tempatan terlibat dengan persekitaran mereka melalui cerita dan tradisi yang membentuk identiti mereka.
Keadaan Batu Hidup atau Megalith seperti yang terdapat di daerah Tampin dan Alor Gajah, Melaka dalam tahun 1936 |
2. Kehadiran katak yang begitu luar biasa di Rumah Rehat Tampin sudah tentu menambahkan daya tarikan unik kepada lokasi itu, menjadi agak legenda tempatan semasa berada di sana. Amfibia besar ini, disamakan saiznya dengan watak terkenal seperti Hector, berkemungkinan menangkap rasa ingin tahu dan imaginasi pengembara dan penduduk tempatan. Panjangnya yang hampir sebelas inci akan menjadikannya ciri yang menonjol, mengubah lawatan biasa ke bilik mandi menjadi pertemuan dengan makhluk yang terkenal.
Tempoh lama katak di Rumah Rehat mungkin telah memupuk rasa kebiasaan dan kegembiraan bagi pengunjung yang kembali, menjadi tempat menarik dan perbualan yang unik. Walaupun katak itu dikatakan tidak lagi mendiami Rumah Rehat Tampin, warisannya mungkin kekal dalam ingatan mereka yang menemuinya. Anekdot seperti ini bukan sahaja memperkayakan sejarah tempat itu tetapi juga menyumbang kepada suasana keseluruhan, menjadikan Rumah Rehat lebih daripada sekadar tempat penginapan—ia menjadi sebahagian daripada tradisi bercerita di rantau ini.
3. Pos Kastam di Tampin menambah sentuhan realisme pada perjalanan, menunjukkan bahawa walaupun pengembara mungkin terperangkap dalam pengembaraan, mereka juga mengemudi praktikal perjalanan di negara dengan undang-undang dan peraturannya sendiri. Para pelancong dan pengembara diingatkan bahawa mereka sedang memasuki wilayah-wilayah yang berlainan di Malaya ketika itu. Sebelum Perang Dunia Kedua, Malaya atau Tanah Melayu ditadbir oleh 3 entiti kerajaan yang berlainan; Negeri-negeri Selat (Singapura, Melaka, Dindings, Pulau Pinang); Negeri-negeri Melayu Bersekutu (Negeri Sembilan, Selangor, Perak dan Pahang); Negeri-negeri Melayu Tidak Bersekutu (Johor, Terengganu, Kelantan, Kedah, Perlis).
Perubahan Zaman
Pada tahun 1931, sebuah rumah rehat kontemporari sudah dilengkapi dengan kemudahan moden seperti lampu elektrik, air mengalir, dan ruang makan ceria yang dihiasi dengan bunga, mewujudkan suasana yang menarik untuk pelancong. Namun di Rumah rehat lama di Tampin, pengembara membayangkan kembali; hujan petang yang dipenuhi dengan suasana dan nostalgia; Adegan seorang pegawai muda Kerajaan yang bergelut membaca di tepi lampu minyak di sebelah sekumpulan pengunjung kelas pertengahan merangkumi cabaran kehidupan di stesen luar dan realiti nyata, penginapan yang kurang mewah. Walaupun sesetengah pengembara mungkin menghargai keselesaan moden rumah rehat baharu, yang lain mungkin mendapati daya tarikan dalam persekitaran yang lebih desa dan tradisional.
Pada 25 November 1946, kerajaan telah membuka semula rumah rehat di Tampin dan Gemas, membolehkan pergerakan semula perjalanan dan hospitaliti di rantau ini selepas tempoh gangguan Perang Dunia Kedua.
Pengumuman itu menyerlahkan bahawa rumah rehat dilengkapi perabot dan makanan disediakan, memenuhi keperluan pengembara yang mungkin memerlukan tempat tinggal semasa menavigasi kawasan ini. Keperluan untuk membuat tempahan awal menunjukkan bahawa rumah rehat ini berkemungkinan popular dan mungkin mempunyai kapasiti terhad,
Ketetapan bahawa "tempoh penginapan seseorang mungkin tidak melebihi tiga hari berturut-turut" menunjukkan kesedaran tentang keperluan untuk mengurus sumber dengan berkesan dan mungkin untuk menggalakkan perolehan di kalangan tetamu, memastikan lebih ramai pelancong boleh mendapat manfaat daripada penginapan terhad yang tersedia.
