A BRIEF HISTORY
INTRODUCTION
Chronology of the History of Kuala Lumpur

1857
Kuala Lumpur had its humble beginning when it was founded in 1857. When Raja
Abdullah, a member of the Selangor
royal family, opened up part of the
Klang Valley for tin prospectors, a
new settlement started as Chinese
prospectors went up the Klang River
and began prospecting in the Ampang
area, which was then jungle. It attracted
merchants and traders to come and set up shops at the confluence of the Klang and
Gombak rivers. Thus, the town was born.
1880
In view of its strategic location, Kuala Lumpur was made the capital of Selangor,
replacing Klang.
1881
The fire and subsequent flood brought great
damage to Kuala Lumpur as most of its building
structures were made of wood or thatch.
Consequently, Kapitan Yap decided to rebuild
the town using bricks and tiles. He established
Kuala Lumpurs first school and a shelter for the
homeless, then licensed brothels, casinos and
saloon bars.
1896
Kuala Lumpur was made the capital in 1896 when the Federated Malay States (FMS)
were incorporated with Swettenham, the Resident-General, in charge. The evolution of
Kuala Lumpur to the classic epitome of British colonialism and the oppression of British
imperialism caused local nationalists to burn with their own dreams of independence.
1942
The Japanese occupied Kuala Lumpur for 44 months, from January 11, 1942 to August
15, 1945 and it almost halted the economy of Kuala Lumpur.
1945
General Seishiro Itagaki, the General of Japanese Military Administratives, surrendered
to the British in Kuala Lumpur after Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan were attacked
with atomic bombs causing massive destruction on both the major cities. After the fall
of Japanese, the British returned to Kuala Lumpur.
1946
The British officially declared Malayan Union administrate Malaya and Kuala Lumpur in
Kings House on 1 April 1946.
1957
At the stroke of midnight on 31 August 1957, the first Malayan flag was raised on the
grounds of Merdeka Square and Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj, the first Prime
Minister, declared independence in Stadium Merdeka.
1972
Kuala Lumpur was conferred the city status on February 1, 1972.
1974
After being detached from its mother state of Selangor, Kuala Lumpur was made into a
unit of its own called the Federal Territory.

Sights &
Attractions
Kuala Lumpur or KL, as the locals like it, is Malaysias capital and her largest city.
From the citys central business district, the conurbation spreads out to include
developing suburbs in the greater KL area, which is also known as the Klang
Valley. As many as 1.8 million people comprising of indigenous Malays, Chinese
and Indians call KL home. This showcase of the multicultural and multilingual
Malaysian life is also a place where tradition and modernity stand next to each
other and herald the cosmopolitan nature of the city.
The Garden City of Lights

As heritage structures get a new lease of life with modified usage, KL retains its
charm through the preservation of pre-war and colonial buildings in the older
parts of the city. Though the British colonial style seems pervasive, the Malay,
Chinese, Indian and Moorish styles
are prominent as well. Some of those
which reflect Moorish architecture
can be seen in the Sultan Abdul
Samad Building, the old High Court
and Magistrates Court Building and
the Kuala Lumpur Railway Station.
The Garden City of Lights transforms
at night as KL-ites wind down after
a hard days work and you get to
experience KL in a different light.
Join us as we answer the question
of what to do in KL if you only have
a day to spend in our feature, One

A big delight in every bite
Malaysian Food is not one particular distinction of food but a culinary

diversity originating from its multi-ethnic population of Malay, Indian
and Chinese. There are also cuisines that have evolved from the
meeting of cultures notably those of the Nyonya and Indian Muslims
communities. Western cuisines, especially Continental and Mediterranean fare, are
also available in the major cities. Indeed, Malaysia as a meeting place of both eastern
and western cultures has produced a most diverse culinary melting pot. A brief look
into the past and how this multi-ethnic country came to be, is essential in order to
comprehend how such a cosmic array of food, has now come to be known all over
the world as Malaysian Food. Presented here are some of the various delicious and
popular dishes from this rainbow of gastronomic spectrum, with pictures from each
unique ethnic kitchen.

American countries. Malaysia is a multiethnic nation which offers dental
surgeries and English-speaking dentists, well-qualified to cater to all of your
dental needs, cosmetic or otherwise.
The neighboring countries of Malaysia, too, offer dental treatments but Malaysia
is nevertheless a regional leader in dental surgery due to numerous clinics here
that provides dental care tailored to international patients. Although its main
appeal is the affordable prices, Malaysia offers modern clinics, latest treatments
and up-to-date equipment.
Kuala Lumpur is the hub of dental care in Malaysia where hundreds of dentists
practice, but clinics serving dental tourists are also available in most major holiday
destinations such as Penang and Melaka. Since
most dental procedures have a short recovery
period, tourists can combine the treatment with
a holiday in this multicultural country.
Many dental clinics in Malaysia also help dental
tourists with their travel plans including flights,
airport pickups, sightseeing and accommodation.
The appointments can
be arranged around their
vacation to suit their needs.
Malaysia is the ideal
destination for dental
tourism in Asia.
