Simpang, Perak

Simpang (GPS: 4.81855, 100.70707) is a suburb of Taiping. The name Simpang means crossroad, because the town is located at an important crossroad, between Federal Route 1, the old trunk road, and Route 74, also known as the Taiping-Kuala Sepetang Road. This is the old road that leads to Port Weld, as Kuala Sepetang was called during the British colonial days.

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.
