Masai 

is an area in Pasir Gudang, Johor Bahru District, Johor, Malaysia, and is the


oldest neighbourhood of Johor Bahru town. It is located 25 kilometres from the Johor
Bahru city centre. Masai is located on route J10 which leads to Kong Kong, a fishing
village along Johor River. The main access roads to Masai are Jalan Masai
Lama (J10) and Pasir Gudang Highway (Federal Route 17).
Many pre-war buildings are still well preserved. Masai, like many of the towns in the
Johor Bahru district, catered to the rural population of farmers and rubber plantation
workers throughout the early and mid 20th century.

Masai has gone through vigorous development which has transformed the town into
one of the most populous towns in Johor. The Masai Chinese Primary School now
has more than 5000 pupils. Shops include Today's, Yos Saver Store, Kip-Mart
and Tesco.
Bandar Seri Alam is the business centre for Masai, with Maybank, Public Bank, Bank
Simpanan Nasional and Bank Rakyat and hotels.
The Masai Main Street, Jalan Masai Lama, is the main road connecting Johor
Bahru to towns at the east side of Masai such as Kota Masai, Kong Kong and Pasir
Gudang.
Meanwhile, Masai is also the name of the district, Masai District with post code of
81750, where the town is situated. Masai district is consist of Masai town, Bandar
Seri Alam, Taman Rinting, Kota Puteri, Plentong, Permas Jaya and others. Due to

village is that the village is categorized as Masai district due to historical
development.
