Town vs. City

I changed "The coastal town of Kuala Terengganu" to "The coastal city..." and it was changed back. Why? I think that a "town" of well over 100,000 inhabitants is a city; moreover, I thought KT was a city back in 1975 when the population was about 30,000. Is there some official designation of "kota" as opposed to "bandar"? For now, I'm changing it back to "city," and would whoever changes it back to "town" (if anyone) please indicate why in this discussion page? Thanks.

Clarification needed on Mohammad Akram Jali

Here's the last paragraph under "History," as it stands:

"The hereditary Sultan of Terengganu since 1998 has been Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin, who is concurrently Deputy Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia. The Chief Executive or Menteri Besar is currently Dato' Idris Jusoh of Barisan Nasional, a businessman. Mohammad Akram Jali was born in Terengganu in 1984."

No explanation is give of who Mohammad Akram Jali is. I don't know, but would someone who does please add some clarification?
