Talk:Malacca City/Archive 1

town or city?

why was the title of this article is "malacca town" instead of "malacca city"? izzudin 09:39, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Because it is the registered "name". H2H (talk) 11:19, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

tourism

This sounds like a page from wikitravel, I'm pretty sure we don't need a guide for tourists on Melaka's encyclopedia page. Origin415 (talk) 03:55, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

The city border

Hi, can anyone point out a legit source to mark the exact border of this Malacca City? So that it can tell that Malacca City contains what districts, to diferentiate it with other areas within Malacca State. Seems like there is no exact border to show the border of this city proper area. I can type Malacca City in Google Map, and get the exact border of the city area, so that I can see which "Taman" are located within the city area. But again, does this an official border or no? At least the City Government of Malacca website should be the source for it.

I'm talking something like in the case of Pingtung City within Pingtung County in Taiwan. It clearly says where is the exact border and which districts/townships belongs to what particular city or other areas. Seems like for Malacca or Malacca City (and many other Malaysian states and cities), the border is still weakly/poorly defined, except for the border of states and federal territories of course. Looks like Malacca City within Malacca State is roughly like the Singapore City (the capital/city area - Orchard Road, Esplanade etc) within Singapore country. No exact political or geographical separation. Chongkian (talk) 09:01, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
