Ampang District was a district inMalaysia that was split into sections, withFederal Territory ofKuala Lumpur and the state ofSelangor each taking a part.[citation needed]
Initially under Selangor jurisdiction, the district was split following the declaration of Kuala Lumpur as a Federal Territory in 1974. The township of Ampang is located in the Federal Territory side and is an eastern suburb of Kuala Lumpur. The district is now divided into two parts:
The district was adjacent toCheras, Kuala Lumpur and northeast of the Kuala Lumpur Central Business District.
In 1880, the face of the settlement was drastically altered when the British decided to move their capital of the Federated Malay States inland fromKlang, and declared the neighbouring city ofKuala Lumpur to be the new capital.[citation needed] Malays are the largest ethnicity in the Ampang area with 52% of the total population, followed by those of Chinese ancestry at 28%. The smallest racial group is Indian at 20%.[citation needed]
The original "kampongs" (unimproved village structures) of the area were eventually replaced by brick buildings sporting tile roofs, of a standardized shop-house design. Plots were regulated with wider streets between them and "sanitary lanes" behind them. The streets and roads were surfaced with locally found laterite gravel.[citation needed]
