Background of Pasir Gudang

Once, Pasir Gudang was only a fishing village :

In the year 1918, the Pasir Gudang area (formerly called ‘Kampung Pasir Udang’) explored by Long Abu who is believed to originate from Riau, Indonesia. When the residents of Kampung Pasir Udang are increasing, the following villages were set up:

1. Kampung Ulu (now MSE dockyard upgrading site)

2. Kampung Tengah (presently Tenaga Nasional Berhad area)

3. Kampung Hilir

4. Kampung Sungai Perembi. The Balai Polis Pasir Gudang is located here.

The villagers consist of Malays and a few Chinese, totaling 83 families. They worked as fishermen and plantation labour.

In 1920, four more villages were set up:-

1. Kampung Air Biru (now a port).

2. Kampung Pasir Merah (now a port).

3. Kampung Pasir Puteh, which still presently remains.

4. Kampung Pulau Tekong, which now became a part of Singapore.

Slowly, Pasir Dung’s name has changed to Pasir Gudang due the activates of sand mining to be exported to Singapore. The collected sand will be gathered into one place. It is believed that due to this situation the name ‘Pasir Gudang’ appears.

In the middle of the 19th century, A Chinese from Teochew descendants has explored further towards the land through a river path which is full of mangrove wood for the farmers. Their activity was finally certified through a 'surat sungai' issued by the Sultan Johor which allows them to develop the Kangkar Masai, Kangkar Plentong dan Kangkar Lunchu area under the river chiefs which is known as ‘Kangchu’. They also planted Gambier and black pepper on these river banks.
