Until 1930, the area was called Mong Kok Tsui (芒角嘴). [3] The current English name is a transliteration of its older Chinese name 望角 (Jyutping: mong 6 gok 3; IPA: [mɔːŋ˨ kɔːk˧]), or 芒角 (Jyutping: mong 4 gok 3; IPA: [mɔːŋ˨˩ kɔːk˧]), which is named for its plentiful supply of ferns in the past when it was a coastal region.

Bangladesh is divided into 8 divisions (bibhag) and 64 districts (jela, zila, zela), although, these have only a limited role in public policy.For the purposes of local government, the country is divided into upazilas (sub-districts), "municipalities" or town councils (pourashova), city corporations (i.e. metropolitan municipal corporations) and union councils (i.e. rural councils).
The provisional district boards were in turn replaced on 1 January 2000, with 18 district councils. There have been two major changes on district divisions since their implementation in 1982: Kwai Tsing District split off from Tsuen Wan District in 1985. Yau Tsim District and Mong Kok District merged to become Yau Tsim Mong District in 1994.
The divisions of Bangladesh are further divided into districts or zilas (Bengali: জেলা). [1] The headquarters of a district is called the district seat (Bengali: জেলা সদর, romanized: zila sadar). There are 64 districts in Bangladesh. The districts are further subdivided into 495 subdistricts or upazilas. [2]
