Batu Anam is a town in the northern part of Segamat District in the state of Johor, Malaysia, about halfway between the district seat of Segamat and Gemas across the border in Negeri Sembilan. It is best known as the home of the 4th Royal Artillery Regiment of the Malaysian Armed Forces and of the Royal Malaysian Police Training Centre, known by the acronym PULAPOL. The surrounding land is given over to rubber and oil palm plantations, among them the Sungei Senarut, Paya Lang, Tambang and Gomali estates. The town has several primary and secondary schools and hosts a community college and a campus of Universiti Teknologi MARA. Federal Route 1 is its main road, and its Keretapi Tanah Melayu railway station is currently mothballed, with Gemas station about 8 km away serving passengers instead.
