Jawatan Kosong Gerik - About a hundred years ago, the area now known as Gerik was still covered by thick forest and was under the rule of King Reman. In 1870, a few people arrived from Patani by the Hangai River, and cleared the land at the river’s estuary. This group was headed by a man called Tok Ad (Tok Sa ad).
Not long after that, King Reman, called Tuan Jagong, came elephant hunting at Gunung Tujuh, near Kuala Kenderong. They heard about the village in the middle of the jungle nearby.
When King Reman came near to the village, he heard a strange noise from the base of a cluster of elephant bamboos. He then ordered his men to dig it up to find out what made the strange noises.
Once it was dug up, they discovered a large number of animals that looked like rats eating the bamboo root. As the root was very hard, the rats made screeching noises when bitten (gerit) by these animals.
King Reman thus named the place Gerit Village. Gerit was used for a long time but the pronunciation and spelling was later changed from Gerit to Grik, and now to Gerik.
