I have never been to Redang Island and heard so many good things around. Btw, i am fr Penang. What is the best way to get to Redang fr Penang and what are my options?

More cities?[edit]

Perhaps Cameron Highlands, Kuala Besut for the Perhentian islands, Jerantut as the gateway to Taman Negara, maybe Pekan? Any other cities in Pahang? Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:38, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Last group of Orang Asli?[edit]

Re: this edit: what happened to all the other Orang Asli peoples in the Peninsula? There are no more Orang Laut, Semai, Semelai, Jakun, Jah Hut, Orang Melayu Asli, Orang Laut, Temiar, etc., etc.? What happened to them? I suspect this is inaccurate phrasing and meant to say something else. Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:39, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I reworded it – I was falling asleep while I was writing this last night, but thanks for picking up this. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 20:24, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Static map[edit]

After years of lacking a static map, I spent the last three hours trying to make one. It's not the best – it certainly wouldn't be a QI, unlike the map I made for SEQ or GTA, per se, but part of this had to do with the insane amount of roads and expressways near KL as well as mountainous roads up the highlands (which I've omitted). But apart from that, is there anything that's needed but is not present on the map? Any other feedback would also be welcome. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 03:50, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, using "K. [name of city]" was done solely to save space. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 03:50, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's fine and helpful. No need to include every road. However, you could add the railroad, the road from Kelantan to Perak and the rest of the coastal highway that goes down to Johor (eventually to Mersing and Johor Bahru). You could also try to show the Cameron Highlands. But really, it's whatever you can do, and what you put up is already good and praiseworthy. Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:54, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't think about including AH18 earlier (the coastal road), but now that you've brought it up, I think it would indeed be a useful addition. As for the railway, I tried finding an open-source map of the railway, but couldn't. Anyway, I'm off to add AH18 :-). SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 07:01, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
...and Yes Done. Now time to do Highway 4. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 07:10, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes Done that too. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 07:17, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
