Jalan Tan Hiok Nee, Johor Bahru (15 September 2016)
Jalan Tan Hiok Nee is one of the streets in downtown Johor Bahru. This narrow street has one way traffic. Traffic enters at Jalan Segget and exits at Jalan Bukit Timbalan. In between, Jalan Tan Hiok Nee is intersected by Jalan Trus with southbound traffic and Jalan Pahang with northbound traffic.
On either ends of the street is an arch with the words "Laluan Kebudayaan Tan Hiok Nee" (Tan Hiok Nee Cultural Way) to commemorate the declaration in October 2009 that it is a cultural street.
The namesake, Tan Hiok Nee, is an imminent Teochew. Born Tan Yeok Nee to a Teochew family in Chaozhou in 1827, he was later known as Tan Hiok Nee. Relocated to the Nanyang, he started his working life as a cloth peddler in Singapore before extending his textile business to Johor Bahru.
Tan Hiok Nee became the leader of the Ngee Heng Kongsi of Johor, of which Jalan Ngee Heng commemorates.
