Segamat District
The Segamat District (Malay: Daerah Segamat) or simply Segamat is a district in the Malaysian state of Johor. Segamat is also the name of the district's primary town. Segamat district is one of the three landlocked districts in Johor, the other being Kluang and Kulai.
It is believed that 'Segamat' is derived from the Malay phrase 'segar amat', which literally translates as 'very refreshing'.
