Port Dickson is the second smallest district in Negeri Sembilan. It is geographically located
on the west coast of Negeri Sembilan. It borders Seremban and Rembau on the east while Sungai
Sepang and Sungai Linggi divide it from Selangor & Melaka respectively.
Formerly known as "Tanjung" to the Malays and "Alang" to the Chinese, Port Dickson derived
its name from Sir John Frederick Dickson, the British resident responsible in developing the area into
a significant trading port in the 18th century.
Now Port Dickson or more popularly known as PD has long been a weekend retreat
for many inland dwellers, especially those from the city seeking to
temporarily escape the hustle and bustle of a hectic life.
