Answer» What is Mossel Bay mean? Mossel Bay (Afrikaans: Mosselbaai) is a harbour town of about 99,319 people on the Southern Cape (or Garden Route) of South Africa.

Answer» What is Miri mean? Miri (Jawi: ميري; Chinese: 美里; pinyin: Méilǐ) is a coastal city in northeastern Sarawak, Malaysia, located near the border of Brunei, on the island of Borneo. The city covers an area of 997.43 square kilometres (385.11 sq mi), located 798 kilometres (496 mi) northeast of Kuching and 329 kilometres (204 mi) southwest of Kota Kinabalu. Miri is the second largest city in Sarawak, with a population of 300,543 as of 2020. The city is also the capital of Miri District of the Miri Division. Before Miri was founded, Marudi was the administrative centre of the northern region of Sarawak. Miri was founded in 1910 when the first oil well was drilled by Royal Dutch Shell. The discovery of an oil field in Miri has led to rapid development of Miri town. Miri became the administrative centre of the northern region of Sarawak by 1929. During World War II, the Miri oil fields were destroyed by the Brooke government to sabotage Japanese operations in Southeast Asia but to no avail; Miri town was the first landing point of Japanese troops in Borneo. The subsequent Japanese occupation led Miri to become a target of Allied air raids which caused the destruction of oil refinery facilities in Miri. The petroleum industry continued to be a major player in the city's economy after the war. Oil exploration has moved offshore since the 1950s, but subsequently new inland oil fields were found in 1989 and 2011. In 1974, the formation of Malaysian oil and gas company Petronas led to co-operation between Petronas and Shell on oil exploration in the Miri region. In 2005, Miri became the 10th city in Malaysia to be granted official city status, the first non-state capital city to be bestowed such status. Miri is the main tourist gateway to the world-famous UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gunung Mulu National Park; Loagan Bunut National Park; Lambir Hills National Park; Niah National Park and Miri-Sibuti Coral Reef National Park. The Gunung Mulu National Park with its Sarawak Chamber, which is the largest known cave chamber in the world by area, remains one of the favourite ecotourism destinations in Miri. Miri is also the birthplace of the Malaysian petroleum industry. Other major industries in the city include timber, oil palm and tourism . reference

Answer» What is Muccan mean? Muccan or Muccan Station is a pastoral lease and cattle station that once operated as a sheep station, located approximately 68 kilometres (42 mi) north east of Marble Bar and 155 kilometres (96 mi) south east of Port Hedland in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Kookenyia Creek and the De Grey River run through the property. The country is gently undulating with large areas of spinifex. The lease was initially taken up by Messrs. Grant, Anderson and Edgar, who appointed Christopher Coppin as manager to pioneer the property in 1879. After seven years at Muccan Coppin left and took up the neighbouring lease and founded Yarrie Station. Some time later the Darlot brothers acquired the 387,000-acre (156,613 ha) property, which they exchanged with Ball and Corbett for the Warrawagine country that the pair held. By 1897 the property was owned by the Ball brothers and Michael Corbett with at least 5,000 sheep being run at the station. The partnership was dissolved in 1900, leaving Corbett and one of the Ball brothers in charge. By 1906 approximately 17,000 sheep were shorn at Muccan. followed by 13,005 in 1908. In 1912 Corbett was the sole proprietor at Muccan. Later the same year 19,000 sheep were shorn producing 330 bales of wool. Corbett was in a partnership with Charles Holthouse in 1913 when the property occupied an area of 200,000 acres (80,937 ha) and was stocked with approximately 20,000 sheep. In 1914 about 18,000 sheep produced 300 bales. Corbett died in 1923, and Holthouse became the sole owner of Muccan. Holthouse died in 1945 leaving the property to his wife and family. Muccan has been run in conjunction with Yarrie Station since about 1990 by the Coppin family. reference
