Kota, Negri Sembilan

Kota (GPS: 2.52058, 102.15664) is a small town in Mukim Legong Ulu, in Rembau District, Negri Sembilan. The town is just a short distance from the border with Malacca. There is nothing much to write about this sleepy plantation town. It only came into the news once, in the 1960s, when its train station was blown up by communist terrorists, in what became known as Darurat 13 Hari (the Thirteen Days of Terror). Now the town is at peace and in a semi-comatose state.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
