CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL DISCOVERIES IN THE INNER CITY OF GEORGE TOWN AND ROUND ISLAND TRIP - PENANG
Penang is an island off the northwest coast of Peninsular Malaysia and one of Malaysia's main tourist draws. Its beaches are a little lackluster when compared with those in some other Malaysian states, but this is more than compensated for by the island's rich multicultural history, which is full of colonial and Chinese influences. Penang is also well known for being the "food paradise" of Malaysia, if not the whole of Asia. Georgetown is the capital of Penang and the only city on the island of any size or historical significance. It a favorite spot for tourists and locals as it has lots of interesting pre-war homes. Batu Ferringhi, located on the north coast, is home to white sandy beaches and the luxurious hotels and restaurants that cater to tourists.

The delegates from the ASEAN countries

Very cute! The Smallest Delegate From Brunei Darussalam, Ammar. Having a cute baby and seeing him grow is the best ever thing one can experience. A baby’s smile melts the heart and calms the soul.

HERE HE IS!


Ammar, as cute as my son Haziq!
