The increase in population has created a structured settlement and among the earliest is Rumah Murah and Taman Beserah. Beserah is a fishing village and is known as a manufacturer and supplier of various products from the sea. Local residents work as fishermen and are also involved in salted fish, anchovies, crackers and other work based on resources from the sea.

The people who live on the land side depend on rubber and durian. Paddy was once cultivated in Beserah. Batik cloth companies and small handicraft companies from sea shells and coconut can be found here.[1]
