Painan
Painan is a coastal town that serves as the capital of the South Pesisir regency of West Sumatra, Indonesia.
== History ==
There is no certain historical document or archive that holds the origin of the town's name. According to the local folklore, the name 'Painan' is originated from ''paik nian'', which means "very bitter" in bahasa Minangkabau, the language of the Minangkabau people who lives in the area. The phrase "paik nian" itself refers to how difficult the life of the local people there in the past. It is also affected by the topography of the 'Painan' that surrounded by hills and caused this place difficult to reach.
This coastal town became an important place during Indonesia's colonial period since year 1663 when the Dutch, via the Dutch East India Company set up a trading post in 'Pulau Cingkuk' (Cingkuk Island), one of many islands that are located offshore the town, as documented in the "Perjanjian Painan" or 'Painan Treaty'. Through the treaty, the local chiefs of West Coast of Sumatra also bound themselves to supply pepper and gold to the Dutch.
