Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka, Kuala Lumpur

Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka (GPS: 3.13416, 101.70361) is a government body established to uphold and develop Malay as the national language of Malaysia. Originally called Balai Pustaka, it was founded on 22 June, 1956 in Johor Bahru. A few months later, in September, it changed its name to Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka, with the abbreviation DBP, following the recommendation of the 3rd Malay Language and Literature Congress.

Since its founding, the DBP has moved a few times. It relocated to Kuala Lumpur in 1957, when it was based at Jalan Young. It moved to its present site on Jalan Dewan Bahasa in 1962. The main building in the Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka complex is its highrise block, Menara DBP, which was completed in 2003.

About this website



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.
