Here are some basic information about Selangor which I think you should know!!! Come and discover more about Selangor...
The origin of the name "Selangor" is lost in history!
Although some sources claim the name to have come from the Malay word selangau (a large fly), most probably due to the abundance of flies in the marshes along the Selangor River in the state's north-west. Another more plausible theory claims the state's name is derived from the term Selang Ur meaning "land of the straits" (ur means "land" in Tamil, selang means "straits" in Malay).
Selangor is also known by its Arabic honorific, Darul Ehsan ("Abode of Sincerity").
Our current Chief Minister of Selangor is Yang Amat Berhormat Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul_Khalid_Ibrahim
