Perak, Malaysia
Kampar is a district in Perak with a rich historical background, and a place with a lot to look forward to. Founded in 1887, the area was a hotspot for tin-mining, due to its location within Kinta Valley. Just like Ipoh, the district boomed due to its mining activities, causing a rise in settlement. Kampar sits between Teluk Intan and Batu Gajah, and also next to some small tourist attractions. Some of the said attractions are also in Kampar itself.
Now that tin-mining is almost non-existent within the area, the old mining sites have become natural lakes. With nature taking its course, these areas have become fishing sites, filled with a variety of fresh-water wildlife, attracting local and non-local anglers. The abundance of Kampar's fresh-water wildlife also contributed to Tanjung Tualang's fame in prawn dishes.
Kampar has a wide variety of delicious food and attraction hotspots, mostly of Chinese descent due to the vast majority of this ethnicity within the area. Visitors will definitely be associated with the famous Kampar fried fish balls, while curry chicken bread is also one of their well-known delicacies. Other renown foods within the district are such as the Kampar rice noodle roll (commonly known as 'Chee Cheong Fun'), and chicken biscuits.
Kampar is now considered a sub-urban area, with some areas still looking as if time never went by. However, it is equipped with basic amenities, such as hospitals, post offices, restaurants, banks, convenience stores, and mini marts. The Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) campus is also located here, which also generates revenue for investors in the district. The Kinta Tin Mine Museum is also located within the district, where tourists can go to. Other tourists attractions such as the Sungai Salu Rainforest and Tempurung Cave are also just a stone’s throw away.
The Kampar district can be reached via North-South Highway (NSE). The North-South Highway also makes journey to other districts in Perak and the other states much more convenient.

Did you know?
A consumer price index (CPI) measures changes in the price level of a market basket of consumer goods and services purchased by households. (Wikipedia)
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) line shows an increment in prices of essential goods on a yearly basis, while the Percentage Changes line shows the level of changes in price increments over the years. For example, a dip in the CPI line may indicate a low level of price increment as compared to the previous year while a surge in CPI line shows a high level of price increment as compared to the previous year.
The above graph shows 1.262% of price changes in essential goods such as rice, meat and tobacco between the years 2011 and 2012, while increasing in difference to 1.822% in 2013. Prices of essential goods then increasing to 2.731% in the year 2014 while surging by 1.925% in 2015.
While the prices of essential goods have shown a variation in the Percentage Changes, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on the other hand indicates a reality of ever increasing prices in essential goods with increments between the years 2011 - 2015 at 102.7 in 2011, 104.3 in 2012, 106.2 in 2013, 109.1 in 2014, 111.2 in 2015.
