Kepong, Selangor

Kepong (GPS: 3.21957, 101.6231) is a small town in Selangor. As with many towns that were already in existence before the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur was created, the town of Kepong today straddles the Kuala Lumpur border, with Kepong, Kuala Lumpur on the other side of the largely disregarded border. The Selangor Kepong is in Gombak District and is largely forested. This is where you find the forest park for the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM). Next to FRIM is another forest park, Taman Botani Kepong, which is still in the process of construction.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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