Talk:Kota Bharu

message: Regarding the section Religion at the sentence "...the Islamic rule on proximity between males and females. However, these regulations apply for Muslims only." is there any citation for this? Recent news are about KB fining a non-Muslim hair dresser for cutting the opposite gender's hair, among other things. http://www.freemalaysiakini2.com/?p=56300
I'm not very well versed with editing the wikipedia page or if it should be, so can someone take a look at this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.139.87.208 (talk) 14:41, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

message: I have some questions:
(1) Are there indeed many wats in Kota Bharu proper? I thought the wats were outside the city, in the direction of Tumpat.
(2) Is it indeed the case that the Japanese landed at Kota Bharu? I thought they landed at Tumpat.

I believe the correct spelling should be Kota Bahru, although there are numerous variants in common use.

The official spelling is Kota Bharu, for whatever reason.  This is also reflected in the Jawi spelling.  See the Malay version for confirmation.  Groogle (talk) 05:08, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I've deleted two sentences regarding the landing of Japanese Army which have not been referenced. I think they should be referenced because there are many views regarding the actual location. Wai Hong 04:59, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I am a dweller in Kota Bharu for 19 years since I was born. Hence, I have plausible and credible evidence to support the following statements I would make:
1. Most of the wats are indeed in Tumpat, not Kota Bharu
2. The Japanese Army landed on Pantai Cahaya Bulan, a beach which faces South China Sea, in Kota Bharu
3. The correct name is truly Kota Bharu, it is so in the mailing addresses

thread_title:  Clarifications 

message: In his book "The Japanese Invasion of Kelantan in 1941", published by Perbadanan Muzium Negeri Kelantan in 1991, reprinted 1994, author Mike Wrigglesworth states that they landed at Pantai Sabak, shortly after midnight local time on 8 December 1941, and backs up the claim with a map.  This agrees with what all local people have told me.  The Pantai Chinta Berahi (later Pantai Cahaya Bulan) does not seem to have been involved, though it appears that a Pantai Badang (if I can read the handwritten map), between the other two beaches, was also involved.
The reference to a page on the Malaysian Armed Forces web site no longer resolves.  Groogle (talk) 05:08, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Kota Lama is the name of the old palace (Istana Kota Lama) on the Kelantan river, not far from the centre of Kota Bharu.  I've never heard of a Kota Lama at Pantai Sabak, and the Malay Wikipedia doesn't mention it either.  The reference in the page also doesn't mention it, so I suppose they fixed their page.  I've fixed this one.  Groogle (talk) 05:08, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I recommend separating the District (Jajahan) from the city, and making two separate articles. It would lead to less confusion and make finding specific information easier. --Bejnar (talk) 19:23, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
