i cant help thinking that the brother and sister team could make a much better effort at bringing in the punters. it used to be a lot more happening. i was in penang for work for a few days in April and the place was very disappointing.

A few more pictures of Georgetown but not worth starting a new thread over, this is taken from Little India, it is the Captains Mosque I think and the Komtar Building.



Cleaning the streets and drains of Penang.



The good thing about Penang is that they have a sewage system, so unlike Thailand the drains aren't full of poo.



See, no poo in there.

Seems like one thing hasn't changed- Penang has a lot of rats. I liked it though. Penang Hill is worth a day trip.

Is Penang worth visiting ? Or Georgetown ? Never really found an excuse/reason to visit it really, but I could on the way to KL or so..

Maybe have a look through the different threads on Penang and also google Penang and decide for yourself whether it is worth visiting, I personally like it there, lots of people don't.

That brought back some good memories. I lived there for a couple of years back in the 80's. I wonder if the New Lom Tom is still open. Suzy must be a granny by now.
