Jalan C.M. Yusuf (British: Chamberlain Road; Chinese transliteration: 張伯倫路; Pinyin: Zhāngbólún Lù; Cantonese Jyutping romanisation: Zoeng1baa3leon4 Lou6) is one of the main roads in Ipoh. It leads out of Ipoh New Town from the south. Jalan C.M. Yusuf connects with Jalan Datuk Onn Jaafar and Jalan Raja Musa Aziz in the north and Jalan Kampar in the south. In between, it meets Jalan Bendahara at a roundabout. Other roads branching off from Jalan C.M. Yusuf include Jalan Dato Tahwil Azar, Jalan Yang Kalsom and Jalan Pasir Puteh.
Jalan C.M. Yusuf was named after Tan Sri Chik Mohamad Yusuf (1907-1975), better known as C.M. Yusuf. A nobleman holding the Perak royal title of Orang Besar, he was the third Speaker of the Dewan Rakyat at Parliament. Before that, the road was originally named Chamberlain Road, after the Secretary of the Colonies of the Coalition Government, Joseph Chamberlain (1836-1914)
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.
