In Pahang, Malay gamelan and Joget Pahang was maintained with royal patronage. Malay gamelan was then introduced in Terengganu after Tengku Mariam, a princess of Pahang, married Tengku Sulaiman, the prince of Sultan Zainal Abidin from Terengganu. By 1913, the Malay Gamelan tradition completely disappeared in Indonesia from the abolition of the Riau-Lingga Sultanate, but flourished in Pahang, and then in Terengganu.

According to the manager of the Museum, the four bonangs were found by the villagers of Kerandin kecamatan Lingga Timur and were buried in the ground and then handed over to the Museum. Even though Malay gamelan has long disappeared in Indonesia, due to the sense of responsibility as a nationalist citizen and the jealousy of its development in Malaysia, interest in reviving the Malay Gamelan has gotten stronger in Indonesia.
