Jalan Bunus is a minor road in downtown Kuala Lumpur. The road connects Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman in the west with Jalan Munshi Abdullah in the east. The vehicular portion of the road is today split into two parts, as the section from Lorong Tuanku Abdul Rahman to Jalan Masjid India has been pedestrianized.
Jalan Bunus, and other roads in the vicinity with "Bunus" to their name, was once part of a Malay settlement called Kampung Bunus, which in turn was named after a Malay leader of Mandailing descent, Jabanus a.k.a. Tok Bunus1
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
