Changlun is a main border town in Kedah,
Malaysia. It is located in the district of Kubang Pasu, about 42 km north
from Alor Star and 8 km near
Bukit Kayu Hitam. The word Changlun was
originated from Thai "ช้างลง" (RTGS: chang long), which means "fallen
elephant".
The construction of the North-South Expressway passing through Changlun
has enabled the town to enjoy smooth development. Besides, the completed
