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



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.
