Ayer Keroh
Ayer Keroh (also written as Air Keroh, translated as murky water) is a suburb of Malacca City and the seat of Melaka Tengah District in the Malaysian state of Malacca. Located 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) north of the city centre, it lies adjacent to the towns of Bukit Baru, Batu Berendam, Durian Tunggal and Bemban, and constitutes the entire Bukit Katil Mukim.
Formerly a rural village within a virgin forest, the town was established by the state government in the 1970s as a satellite town of Malacca City (then Malacca Town) with housing, industrial and recreational areas, to solve the housing issues of then-Malacca Town and to curb the state's brain drain phenomenon. It is currently the seat of the state government since 2006 and also home to the country's oldest artificial lake, originally built as a water reservoir during the British colonial era. In 2010, parts of Ayer Keroh along with parts of few neighbouring towns formed the Hang Tuah Jaya municipality.
Ayer Keroh houses two light industrial areas: the Ayer Keroh Industrial Area, which was developed by the State Government in 1971; and Taman Tasik Utama Industrial Area, which was developed by Private Company Metacorp Bhd subsidiary Metacorp Properties Sdn Bhd in the 1990s as part of its mixed development project, that also included residential and commercial areas. Most of products manufactured by these factories are consumer products such as food and paper box. In 1971, Pacific Food Products Sdn Bhd (now Mamee-Double Decker (M) Sdn Bhd) became Ayer Keroh Industrial Area's first tenant, and also the first company to set up a factory in the town.
