The **Semantan MRT Station** is a [mass rapid transit](/source/Mass_rapid_transit) (MRT) [station](/source/Train_station) serving the suburb of [Damansara Heights](/source/Damansara_Heights), [Kuala Lumpur](/source/Kuala_Lumpur), [Malaysia](/source/Malaysia). It is one of the stations on the [MRT Kajang Line](/source/MRT_Kajang_Line) and was opened on 16 December 2016 when Phase One of the line became operational.[1]

The station is located near the Semantan Interchange (Jalan Dungun intersection) of the [Sprint Expressway](/source/Sprint_Expressway) (Damansara Link) near Wisma UN, the [United Nations](/source/United_Nations) (UN) representative office in Malaysia and the office area of Jalan Dungun.

## History

During Phase One operation of the Kajang Line (then known as the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line), this station was the southern terminus of the line where all passengers had to disembark. Trains would leave the station and make a turnback at the crossover track above Jalan Sultan Abdul Halim before heading back towards [Sungai Buloh](/source/Sungai_Buloh_MRT_station). With the opening of Phase Two on 17 July 2017, the southern terminus of the station became [Kajang](/source/Kajang_MRT_station) station.

The station was previously known as **Manulife-Semantan** from 21 August 2017 when Manulife have granted a 5-year contract for the naming rights of the station under the [station naming rights programme](/source/Prasarana_Malaysia#Station_naming_rights_program), which is located within 5 minutes walk from Menara Manulife, the Manulife Malaysia's headquarters.[2][3] Nonetheless, the station naming rights contract was ended from 1 December 2023.
