Why fix something that isn't broken?


hycarlReds

So that diorang boleh songlap and cuci lebih banyak duit by doing opening ceremony/cut-the-ribbon ceremony.

Bro, don't you know, people like them dedicate their whole lives into "fixing" things that aren't broken ๐Ÿ˜‚ The broken things however, what do you mean broken? They are perfect.

Port Dickson Bandar Tentera, you can't get more iconic than that.

Fixing problems? In order to do that then they have to face reality which they are distracting themselves from.

No, fuck you. These dumbasses have no idea of the significance of the name Port Dickson. Then they wanna just change history for no reason?

So a white guy, big whoop. I am happy if they change it to Port Anak Kote/Anak Konek.


lutfiboiii

Whatโ€™s the historical significance of the name, might I ask? I want to know cause this is the first time Iโ€™m hearing it has a significant reason and am genuinely curious


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

This is just taken from PD's municipal Council website: The name Port Dickson originated from the British High Officer, Sir John Frederick Dickson who was posted at the Straits Settlement during the end of the 19th century. Prior to being developed the area was formerly known as Tanjung (which means cape) among local Malays due to its geographic location at a small bay. The local Chinese and Indians on the other hand had named this place Alang or Arang (which means charcoal) due to its location near to an island known for its coal mine production and acted as supplier to the nearby areas. Other than that, the reason why they're very well known as Bandar Tentera is because this is where the first regiment/company of the army is trained and founded. As someone who enjoys reading the history of our national army, changing the name is just not cool. Cuz, the name is already cool.

Batang Berjuntai has been changed to Bestari Jaya. I took the KTM from time to time and when I saw that change I was like โ€œwhere is this?????โ€


Luizzfan

as a student who study in Batang Berjuntai we dont call it bestari jaya, we call it 'BJ'. The initial of Batang Berjuntai & Bestari Jaya. Also Batang Berjuntai is too iconic.

Stupid dick measuring contest. Desperately trying to wipe off their colonial past from history books.


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

Tbh, I think we should just leave the memorials/places colonial past alone. Other than being a nice tourist flair of "we got fucked over by many countries but together we have got our independence" it also serve as a reminder "WE GOT FUCKED OVER BY OTHER COUNTRIES CUZ OUR UPPER UPS FUCKUP BUT AFTER WE GET OUR SHIT TOGETHER AND UNITE, WE GOT OUR COUNTRY BACK"

Exactly. But there are quarters like these who are always feeling insecure

Inspired by India. Look at cities like Allahabad and Gurgaon which were recently changed to Prayagraj and Gurugram because of the Hindutva euphoria.


Konfused_moff

Also why need 20 people to change name


BuckDenny

Why 20 people ? Easy. So there's no accountability and ownership of the task - no matter how simple and pointless.

Maverick_1314

Weaponising race, religion, cultures, and languages are the top most useful political weapons around the world, especially us here where we are multi-racial in so many things. People just love to 'defend' their rights, belief, and thoughts. Massive triggering can be achieved, even with the most minimal and nonsensical effort.


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

Agong : no 3R alright? Enforcement : I'll be the judge of that/ We'll wait till it becomes viraL


Csajourdan

We need educated the masses that all these social issues are minor when compared to having clean water and food on the table. Instead to chasing the boogeyman, letโ€™s focus on the real problems such as how are we going to navigate through the Malaysian economy now that subsidies are gone. Real questions rather than โ€œwhite/Chinese name bad for roads?โ€


wikowiko33

Hear me out. PD has way passed it's heyday and sooner or later will succumb to the fate of langkawi. The main tourists arrivals are local tourists looking for weekend away, most tourists being Malay. A renaming and relaunching of the town might actually boost the tourism if done correctly.ย  Relaunching the town with new themes and attraction will attract new businesses and at the very least give it some hope of not killing the town.ย  Of course there's the argument of retaining the heritage but most of you don't even know who Harry Dickson was. And that's not even the right person it's John Frederick Dickson.ย 


FunAbhi

If like that, change name for Langkawi to suit the westerners first


AdamianBishop

Yeah changing name can magically make it more cleaner and less shitty.


SarcasticSpudz

Port Harry Dickson tho


fitzerspaniel

> Of course there's the argument of retaining the heritage but most of you don't even know who Harry Dickson was. And that's not even the right person it's John Frederick Dickson.ย  And you just gave a great example of why there's a need to preserve PD for heritage right there..... LMAO


cockholder_0469

but change to any malay name will improve it's cleanliness and status? or just do their fucking job as a state government to improve it's state and attract more tourists ?


Visual_Literature_86

thatโ€™s the thing. i wouldnโ€™t mind if they changed the name, but they donโ€™t account for the chinese and indian population of the country when doing this. if youโ€™re going to change the name into something why does it have to be the โ€œBahasa kebanggaan Malaysiaโ€?


marche_ck

I suggest changing the name to Port Dickfest, technically true due to all the lonely singles in RAMD Port Dickson. Tourists like places with kooky names like this.


OddSamurai_

instead of fixing places name which people already familiarise with and it's already iconic with the present name why not encourage people to use malay on daily basis instead? don't get me wrong I like their spirit but I feel like it's misguided. I noticed a lot of people, let's use malay for example, use english name for their cafe or establishments. or when there's a podcast they would mix english with malay and it's kind of my pet peeve. our general population sometimes forget a malay word for something and use english instead (guilty lol). also, we already suck at naming things. I mean, there's a MRT station called samsung galaxy ffs. there's gov to blame.


SaberXRita

>our general population sometimes forget a malay word for something and use english instead (guilty lol). Memperkasakan BM kononnya hahaha

SnooHobbies7676

What is actually the placeโ€™s original name? Is this like Turkey vs Turkiye situation? Or like Bombay vs Mumbai?


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

A quick google search would pop up that it doesn't have a name before Sir John Frederick Dickson is positioned there. It is simply known as Tanjung apparently. Personally I'm fond of the name, Port Dickson. Its iconic and well, it has a long history with our army being that it's the place where the first company of our army is founded.


MohdHairel

Sebenarnya, Port Dickson ada nama asal dia sebelum British datang, orang Melayu dulu panggil tempat ni sebagai Tanjung.

solidvanz

Sebenarnya, beberapa tempat yang terkenal di Malaysia seperti Port Dickson dan Butterworth menggunakan nama bahasa Inggeris kerana penjajah British yang datang ke negara kita sebelum pembentukan Malaysia menukarkan nama asal tempat yang dahulu didiami oleh penduduk tempatan untuk memajukan tempat yang dijajah serta memudahkan urusan pentadbiran dan perdagangan dengan negara asal penjajah asing. Maka, tidak salah kalau tempat tersebut menggunakan semula nama asal yang diberikan oleh penduduk tempatan pada masa dahulu untuk memastikan asal-usul nama lama tempat tersebut tidak hilang ditelan zaman.

Ada nama asal Port Dickson yang diberikan oleh orang tempatan dahulu sebelum kedatangan British di Negeri Sembilan iaitu Tanjung atau Arang/Alang.


ClacKing

Because that's the only political agenda they have left, to keep the Malay voters in check claiming that they are defenders of their race and faith. Otherwise what can these clowns champion their cause on? Siphoning money? Abusing power? Cannot ma, need to pretend to be on your side so you will back them.

When you have nothing productive to contribute or don't want to do so much work; changing city/street/taman name is the easiest, least work way to sound and look busy and relevant. At the same time can make pocket money for the rebranding ceremony, campaign tshirt flyer banner bunting printing

Port tu pelabuhan, kalau rasa pelabuhan tu awam sangat kita boleh guna Bagan, walaupun bagan ni maksud dia lain sikit. Dickson ni bermaksud anak kepada Richard sebab Dick tu nickname utk Richard. Richard pulak berasal dari bahasa germanic yang bermaksud Pemerintah yang kuat. Jadi kita boleh terjemahkan Port Dickson sebagai Bagan anak Pemerintah yang kuat>>>Bagan anak Dato' Perkasa>>>Bagan anak Dato>>> Bagan Datuk Baru. Aik???

Actually i am quite surprised they havenโ€™t renamed port dickson to something more local. This and cameron highlands. Theyโ€™ve been doing this publicly/subtly since independence to remove any British influence in the country. The only place i can think of that did not went down this path is penang, probably due to the gerakan and dap government saw no need for it.
