Johor is the southern most State in the Penisula and is linked to
Singapore by a causeway carrying a road and the railway across the

The state is bounded on the north by Pahang, on the west by Negeri
Sembilan and Melaka, on the east by the south china sea and the
south by the selat tebrau. It is one of the most developed States
in the country, particularly on its western side where rubber, oil
palm and pineapple makes Johor the prime producer of these
commodities in the whole country. It also has a timber and
wood-based products industry and grows pepper.
The new port of Pasir Gudang on the Selat Tebrau is fast developing
into an important international port. Johor map |
