Kedah is "the rice bowl of Malaysia" and water has always been essential to the state. The rivers have been used for irrigation, communication linkages between villages and to transport rice grown in the vast area of paddy fields. The relatively gentle flow from Kuala Kedah made navigation easy and Alor Setar was established at the confluence of the Sungai Kedah and Sungai Anak Bukit as a port for the rice trade.
