Kampung Melayu Majidee

Kampung Melayu Majidee (Jawi: کامڤوڠ ملايو مجيدي) is a Malay village located in the city of Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia. Its population is around 30,000.

It is situated on a hilly area near Sungai Sebulong, connecting to Sungai Pandan on the coast of the Straits of Tebrau. It is 8 km (5.0 mi) north-east of Johor Bahru, 16 km from Ulu Tiram on the further north-east, 30 km from the Johor Senai Airport which is located at the north-west, and 360 km (220 mi) away from Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia.

Its history stretches back to the 15th century, which includes involvement in Portuguese settlements cleared by the legendary "Six Friends", the new settlement by the people of the heritage family that is related to the family from Pergam Istana Buruk in Muar. They were originally from the old Sultanates of the Kingdom of Johor Lama and Melaka, the Demak Sultanate of Kudus, the Siam Sultanate, the Kelantan 7-tombs, the Hassan, the Sultan of Johor Temenggong Ibrahim, the British Army, and the Johor Military Force.

Kampung Melayu Majidee and several other villages were used by the British authorities to accommodate their soldiers, which gave the village the name "majidee", which was used for a large constituency for the security forces for the front line, camp, and battalions to guard the royal family's bank between the mouth of Sungai Pandan and Sungai Skudai.

It was involved in the May 13 Incident.
