 Tangkak is a district capital of Ledang, in the state of
Johor, Malaysia.
 It lies close to the neighbourin to Jasin town and district of
the state and about half an hour drive from Melaka city
centre.
 The town is nicknamed "Fabric Town" or "Syurga Kain" in
honor of its many cloth shops.
 It is also well known as Gunung Ledang (Mount
Ophir), which is the highest mountain in Johor, just 17 km
away from the town centre of Tangkak.
 The mountain is clearly visible from any part of Tangkak.
Tangkak is located north of the state of Johore and is the second largest
town formerly in the district of Muar.
Founded in the year 1901 at the foot of Mt. Ophir (1276m high) and was
under the direct control of Muar district then.
In the year 1946, the local council was established and was governed by
the Assistant District Officer who in turn reported to the Muar District Office
in those days. According to hearsay, the word Tangkak came from the
word MERANGKAK. It was believed that Long Mahmud had led 7 brothers
from the Riau Province to start the first settlement that is now known as
Tangkak. These 7 brothers had sailed from Riau Province and sailing along
the Kesang River finally arrived at Tangkak River. They saw the flat land and
decided to stay put at the place. Unfortunately they had difficulties getting
up the river bank as their legs got stuck at the slippery river mud. They had
to use the roots of trees to help them to get on land. When other settlers
asked them the name of the place, they will answer TANG MERANGKAK TU.
Over a period of time, it was shortened to TANGKAK, the name we all know
today. Tangkak has an extensive network of roads including proximity to the
North-South Expressway and a police organization that would soon be
upgraded as a Police District Headquarter. The town is served by the
Tangkak District Hospital which offers assistance to many highway mishaps
and numerous primary health centres.
