Sungai Jarak, Kedah/Penang

Sungai Jarak (1 August, 2015)


Sungai Jarak is a river that flows from Kedah to Penang. It joins Sungai Air Itam before emptying into the Prai River at the Air Hitam Dalam Educational Forest.

At Taman Cempedak, there is a recreational park beside Sungai Jarak. At this point, the river is installed with gates which regulate its flow. These gates can be brought down, where need arise, to check the flow of the river.

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.
