History

According to the late Tuan Haji b. Bulat, the previous Telok Panglima Garang Village Head who served for 25 years from 1968 to 1994, the village’s original name was Nibong Dengkil. According to previous Telok Panglima Garang Village Head Tuan Haji b. Bulat, Nibong Dengkil’s actual name was Beting Pak Acheh. The Aboriginal people refer to it as a ‘bay’ because of its geographical location. The Temuan tribe’s Orang Asli were forced to surrender and retreat to Bukit Tampoi in Dengkil. Due to the Acheh people’s aggressive conduct, the Orang Asli in Nibong Dengkil felt embarrassed and retaliated by inciting a fight. Until today, there has been evidence that suggests that the residents near Bukit Tampoi, Dengkil may have ancestral connections to the Aborigines who once lived in Telok after being forced out by the invasion of Acheh people.
