The Segamat District is a district located north of the state of Johor in Malaysia. The district capital is Segamat Town. In fact, local folklore says Segamat is a derivative of "Segar Amat" with the words spoken by Bendahara Tepok Bendahara of Sultanate of Malacca as he approached Segamat River to have some fresh drinks. It is not known when the name Segamat was used, but before the town of Segamat became known as Segamat, it was known as the Rantau Panjang. Rantau Panjang location is believed to be located on the banks of the Segamat river (location the old movie theater site Cathay / Motorcycle Shop) starting from the old Kuala Segamat River (dead river Segamat) across the railway about length 1 km.
