Twinned with Kuala Lumpur
12 of 14 in this atlas
Kuala Lumpur's twinning ties, as recorded in this atlas, span cities across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, including Ankara, Casablanca, Chennai, Delhi, Dubai, Isfahan, Jakarta, Karachi, London, and Mashhad, all mutual pairings. Two further links, with New Delhi and Pyongyang, are one-sided, named by Kuala Lumpur but not reciprocated in those cities' own declared partnerships.
