The Royal Selangor Club is a club for socializing in Kuala
Lumpur. It is situated conveniently beside the famous landmark in Kuala Lumpur,
the Merdeka Square, Kuala Lumpur. The club is accessible via Jalan Raja and is
sometimes the host for certain matches from the Cricket World Cup.
The Royal Selangor Club has been around for more than 100
years. Most of its early records of its history were gone during the Japanese
occupation from 1942 to 1945. Some of its records were also missing from a fire
back in 1970. The club was founded in 1884 and was initially named the Selangor
Club. It served as a meeting place for high ranked and educated members of the
British colonial society. The club went over a facelift back in 1910 when
Arthur Benison Hubback redesigned the club. Over the years, the membership has
increased as many distinguished Malaysian civil servants start to join the club
Back in 1900s, the club was also used as a hall for
theatrical performances as there were no available halls back then. Ever since
the beginning, the Royal Selangor Club has been the host for many sporting
events especially cricket. It is from the Long Bar there sporting events can be
viewed from. Other attraction near the club is none other than Merdeka Square
where declaration of independence took place back in 1957.
皇家雪兰莪俱乐部
皇家雪兰莪俱乐部位于马来西亚首都吉隆坡的独立广场,由英国殖民者建立于1884年,至今仍是社会精英聚会地点。此处举行国际板球比赛。这个俱乐部外观挺不错,里面全是富人的活动项目,不对外开放,只能在外面拍照留个影。
