Jalan Raja Uda is one of the main roads in Butterworth, Penang. It was named after the late Raja Tun Sir Uda Al-Haj bin Raja Muhammad (1894-1976), who served as the first post-independence Governor of Penang, from 31 August, 1957 until 30 August, 1967. The neighbourhood served by this road is also called Raja Uda. Raja Uda comes from Riau aristocratic line, and was a member of the Selangor royal family. He is the grandfather of political blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin.
Jalan Raja Uda is a very long road. The addresses are numbered from south to north. It passes through the Raja Uda residential suburb of Butterworth, and continues through the Raja Uda Industrial Estate. A portion of Jalan Raja Uda lies north of the Butterworth Outer Ring Road (BORR). It is not possible to go straight across the BORR which splits Jalan Raja Uda into two.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
