Cuma kedudukannya sudah direndahkan apabila papan tanda rasmi moden menyebut ia sekadar rumah gabernur Patani.

It's just is position has been lowered when the official modern signboard mentioned it as just the house of the governor of Patani.

Admittedly after Patani went down into the hands of the Thai kingdom which is centred in Bangkok in the year 1785 it's rulers were considered as governors by the central government.
