Ipoh
Ipoh is the capital city of Perak state, Malaysia. It is
approximately 200 km (125 miles) north of Kuala Lumpur on the
North-South Expressway. The city is administered by Majlis Bandaraya
Ipoh (MBI) after accorded a city status in 1988.
The name Ipoh is derived from a local tree, Pohon Epu or now more
commonly known as Pokok Ipoh. The sap of this plant is poisonous and
was used by Orang Asli (Indigenous Peoples in Malay) to coat the
tips of the darts of their blowpipes for hunting purposes.
Ipoh city came into existence in the 1820s as a village on the banks
of the Kinta River. It was less prominent at that time compared to
the early mining town of Gopeng, 20 km south of Ipoh. In 1890, Frank
Swettenham founded the Ipoh Sanitary Board which led to the
systematic planning of Ipoh.
From the turn of the early 20th century, when more British
tin-mining companies were set up in the city, Ipoh gained greater
prominence.
