SMK Vivekananda, Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur

SMK Vivekananda, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur (8 July, 2016)


Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Vivekananda (GPS: 3.1296, 101.68618) is a secondary school in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur. It is located on Jalan Rozario, and is also bordered by Jalan Vivekananda and Jalan Sultan Abdul Samad. The name Vivekananda is derived from Tamil, where "vive" is said to mean knowledge, and "kananda" means happiness. However, the school may also have been established by the Vivekananda Ashram next door, which was established as a religious hermitage reverring the teachings of Swami Vivekananda.

Established in 1958, SMK Vivekananda is the oldest school in Brickfields and was originally known as the Vivekananda Tamil Secondary School. The opening was officiated by then Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman. The school is attended by students from the Malay and Indian communities of Brickfields.

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.
