Gurun is a mukim and a small town in Kuala Muda District, Kedah, Malaysia. "Gurun" in English means desert, however the town does not resemble in the slightest the meaning of its English translation. Rather, it derived its name from the word "gerun", which means terrify or "kurun" meaning elephant in the Siamese dialect. These words are associated with an incident during the reign of King Ekataat’s grandsons, Sultan Jaafar Mad Azam Syah, Sultan of the Islamic State of Ayutthia, who was killed in 1876 by the invading Thai armies when they crushed his body using an elephant. This incident took place behind the current Gurun Police Station.
Reading Gurun against the global hubs: Singapore (~620 km), Tokyo (~5,195 km), Dubai (~5,266 km) are the close ones, with São Paulo (~15,983 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
Gurun sits inside Malásia — the South-Eastern Asia subregion, capital Kuala Lumpur, languages English, Malay, currency MYR (RM).
The closest mapped neighbors of Gurun are Bedong (11 km), Yan Besar (11 km), Sungai Lalang (14 km), Sungai Petani (19 km), so commuter, logistics and same-day-trip planning will usually pull from this cluster.
