FELDA L.B. Johnson

Kampung LB Johnson, formerly LKTP Labu Jaya and FELDA LB Johnson, is a settlement village located in the Seremban District of Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. It was established as LKTP Labu Jaya by the first group of settlers in 1963. The FELDA settlement acquired its name from Lyndon Baines Johnson, the 36th President of the United States, who visited LKTP Labu Jaya on October 31, 1966 while on official visit to Malaysia. Following Johnson's visit, the settlement was renamed FELDA LB Johnson as a tribute to his presence.

In 1995, Lembaga Tabung Haji through its property investment arm, TH Properties, offered the 423 settlers to sell their lands. This was done with the consent of then Negeri Sembilan's Menteri Besar, Tan Sri Mohd Isa Abdul Samad.

Later in 1998, 16 settlers were brought to the court and were made to accept the judgement by imposing Akta Pengambilan Tanah. They were fully compensated in a one-off payment rather whereas the other residents were paid in stages as agreed in their agreement with the THP.

Today, the village is now known as Kampung LB Johnson as it is no longer a FELDA settlement. Its entrance overlooks the route to the new Nilai Polytechnic in Labu, Negeri Sembilan. Institut Aminuddin Baki, Tunku Kurshiah College and few government buildings were built around the area.

The village itself also has a primary school and a mosque, both named after Johnson.
