MB says Port Dickson should keep its name


SEREMBAN: Those calling for Port Dickson's name to be changed to Pantai Dermaga have been urged to reconsider, as the resort town is already globally known as a popular tourism destination.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun said that if Port Dickson's name were changed to a local one, then all other towns and places named by British colonialists such as George Town in Penang and Cameron Highlands in Pahang should also be changed.
