Pandamaran 班達馬蘭, Selangor

Pandamaran, Klang, Selangor (6 July 2016)


Pandamaran (Traditional Chinese: 班達馬蘭; Simplified Chinese: 班达马兰; Pinyin: Bāndámǎlán) is a town in the district of Klang in Selangor. It comprises four areas called Kawasan 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Although the Pandamaran area already had some Chinese settlers, mostly of the Hokkien ethnic group, it saw an influx of more Hokkien settlers when the Pandamaran New Village was established in 1952, when the British needed to relocate the Chinese settlers to keep them away from Communist threats and influences. Although Pandamaran New Village still exists today, with mostly Chinese village houses, Pandamaran itself has grown beyond its original boundaries.

Nowadays Pandamaran can be considered a township in its own right, though normally it is regarded as a neighbourhood of Port Klang. On the other hand, the urban sprawl of Klang Town has now overlapped and become contiguous with Pandamaran. By today's definition, Pandamaran can be considered the area bordered by Persiaran Raja Muda Musa to the northwest, Jalan Kim Chuan and Jalan Batu Unjur to the north, Persiaran Batu Nilam to the east, Sungai Aur to the south, and Lebuh Pendamar to the west.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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