QUOTE(ZeroSOFInfinity @ Sep 8 2022, 04:34 PM) "In the 19th century, there was a chinese businessman who lived at the foot of the mountain. He opened a grocery store by the creek. Those who wanted to go to pahang through the gorge often bought things and rested in the store, because the sign in the store said with the word "福隆", people call the place "福隆港". After that, the canyon and the mountain were collectively referred to by the Chinese name, because the mountain was not named at that time, and in fact the word "港" was not used to call the mountain. [12] However, 许云樵 once affirmed the false statement that the "港" of "福隆港" was "岗" in the 1972 "nanyang business daily" column. He also explained that the original 港 was at the foot of the mountain. In the 19th century It was opened by a chinese, from which you can climb the mountain through the canyon to pahang, so pedestrians call the mountain a 港." |

QUOTE(ch@ich@i @ Sep 8 2022, 10:01 AM) According to historical records, 文良港 existed in 1862, when it belonged to a mining area in the northeastern district of kuala lumpur. It was only formed as a mining town in about 1880.光前村 (former 南益 rubber factory) is a new village developed in the later period of this mining town. there is a river here called "双溪柏龙岗" (sungai belongkong). "文良港" is the homophonic place name in the hokkien dialect (southern min - minnan) for “柏龙岗” |
