Nation Lore in 1 Min:

So basically during the late 18th century:

Francis Light, a British merchant, travelled to Southeast Asia for spice trade. Sultanate of Kedah (a kingdom in the region) offer Penang island in advance to request help from British East India Company to fend off against Siam. 

 

Sultan: Hey dude, i give you this island and can you pass my request to the British officials in India?

Light: Sure (wink²)

 

Light didn't pass the message to British India and the Sultan was furious and decided to take back the island given to Light by force. 

 

Tldr: Royal Navy wiped his ass and took away ⅙ of its land which was called Province of Wellesley during the Strait Settlement era.
