Chikus

South-eastern Asia

Chikus is a small town in Mukim Sungai Manik, in Hilir Perak District, in the state of Perak, Malaysia. It lies in the district of the capital Teluk Intan, along the Batang Padang and Manik rivers, and its nearest railway station is Tapah Road. The town has long been an agricultural hub and is a major area of the Trans Perak and Sungai Manik rice plantation scheme, described as one of the largest rice-growing areas in the state. Other local industries include oil palm plantations and fruit orchards, especially durian. The main roads named for the town are Jalan Chikus, which links to Langkap, and Jalan Din Mydin. The English Wikipedia article is short, so this entry records the location, the rivers, the agriculture and the roads it names.
