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

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.
