Putrajaya is a planned city and the federal administrative center of the Malaysian capital. The seat of government was shifted in 1999 from Kuala Lumpur because of overcrowding and congestion. Kuala Lumpur remains Malaysia's national capital and is the seat of the King, the Parliament, and all the foreign embassies, and the country's commercial and financial centre. Putrajaya was the idea of the then Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad. It became Malaysia's third Federal Territory, after Kuala Lumpur and Labuan. Named after the first Malaysian Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj. Putrajaya derived from Sanskrit words "Putra" means Prince and "Jaya" means success / victory.
