TEMERLOH is a town in Central Pahang, Malaysia in Temerloh district. Located about 130 kilometres (81 mi) from Kuala Lumpur along the Kuantan-Kuala Lumpur trunk road2, Temerloh is the second largest town in Pahang after Kuantan. It is situated at the junction of the Pahang River and the Semantan River. The district consists of two areas, the 1,442-square-kilometre (557 sq mi) Municipal Council Area (64.08%) and the 808-square-kilometre (312 sq mi) outer Municipal Council Area (35.92%). Today, “Temerloh” usually refers to the territory under the administration of Temerloh Municipal Council or Majlis Perbandaran Temerloh, which includes the smaller towns adjacent to the city such as Mentakab, Lanchang, Kuala Krau and Kerdau. Temerloh district is bordered by Maran district on the east, Bentong on the west, Jerantut on the north, and Bera on the south. An old town with some colonial buildings and shop houses, the town has prospered in recent years as a transportation hub and new industrial center. There have been many new commercial and industrial hub built in Temerloh in recent years. Cutting travel time in half, the newly completed East Coast Expressway links the town to Kuala Lumpur and Kuantan and adds to the growth of Temerloh.

Patin ( Pangasius sp.), a type of freshwater catfish is a local delicacy highly sought after in the country.

Temerloh City 20 years ahead In reference to the antiquity, Temerloh have been known as “Patin Fish Town” and as the centripetal of main administration + business, education and development. It is found that the city has variations of religious, post-colonial, raft houses, jetty, traditional houses and commercial areas. By the year of 2007, Temerloh is envisioned fluorish through tourism due to it’s well known fishery product, agriculture and industrial. By the year of 2015, Temerloh is visioned as the Centre Point of Peninsular Malaysia; which is still under discussion process. In line with the increasing rate of growth in tourism, in about 200% population in Temerloh by 2030 is expected. It has been the government’s vision to ensure the citizens reached the highest level quality of life within the rapid increment of people flowing in Temerloh. In present, population ratio to development, natural disaster every 40 years, migration and from other various aspect has been the ignition of why Temerloh has been just “a place of stay”. Referring to the current situation, if by 2035, Temerloh is still just a TRANSIT place, and not being sensitive and responsive towards the communities exigencies of cities life with the basis of culture; Temerloh will be in a slow pace development, thus becoming an IDLE city.
