Mentakab, Pahang
Mentakab is one of major town in Pahang, Malaysia, originally known
as Pasir Rawa. It is close to Temerloh. Mentakab was once considered
by the State Government in the year 1901 to be the new centre of all
administrative works in the state of Pahang.
However, due to a problem of uneven land, Kuantan was to be the new
capital of the state. Mentakab is located under the district of
Temerloh. Temerloh is a large district and contains many villages.
Mentakab, being a fairly large town in the district, is often
thought by people to be a district in itself, separate from Temerloh.
Mentakab has a railway station which is on the line from the
north-east coast to the south of Peninsular Malaysia owned by the
Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB). The railway from Gemas to
Tumpat in Kelantan goes through the town of Mentakab.
The original road from Kuala Lumpur to Kuantan also goes through
Mentakab which gives Mentakab an important role. Travelers used to
recognize the famous round-about near Jalan Tun Razak-Jalan Temerloh
intersection every time they reached the town. However, the iconic
round-about has been replaced by a traffic light.
The Semantan River that goes through the town is the water source
for the agricultural activities. Mentakab is currently popular for
urban swiftlet farming, most shops or shophouses are modified on the
top floor to provide space for swiftlet farming.
