| 97989958 | It's known by a few names of similar sounding. Most people if mapping thru field survey would likely have named it Tasik Paya Bungor, which is more popular. In the late 80s i think there were signboards before the entrance to a small rest area there of that name, though they're most likely gone by now. I chose Tasik Bungur because it's the name adopted by Jawatankuasa Kebangsaan Nama Geografi Malaysia. Off hand i remember GNS also registered this name if not mistaken. GNS = GEONet Names Server, there's a wiki on OSM about it. |

| 97989958 | Tasik Bungur used to be a tourist spot in the 80s 90s. I used to pass thru this area. As for other lakes, names taken from GNS, might have missed out the ref doing editing late at nite. If you're asking because it looks similar to the famous alphabet platform, although I don't have definite proof, some time early this year someone has been following my edits in Central Pahang. I know because certain new additions i did somehow "mysteriously" appeared verbatim on that platform as well shortly after my edits on OSM. |

| 108162357 | In Malaysia's context, that's a frontage road. It connects from Jalan Pagoh-Parit Sulong to the shops and then to the residential area main road. It is also a local authorities gazetted public main road. Malaysian mappers do not usually tag these roads as highway=service unless they are in commercial complexes which are not public roads. |

| 108162357 | This is a shop frontage road, not a service road, and usually tagged as unclassified in the local context. Note that "Unclassified Highway" is not literally unclassified in OSM. "Unclassified" is a UK road classification term and is ranked higher than residential and just lower a rank than tertiary road. You can refer its wiki and also osm.wiki/Frontage_road |
