Georgetown, despite being the second biggest city and part of the second biggest conurbation in Malaysia, still feels very much like its still in the 1780s, which is why it is the number one location for foreign migration in Malaysia but also the reason it is less popular with the local Malaysians from other states. Cause the thought process among Malaysians is that tall buildings equate to development, which is why cities like Johor Baru, Petaling Jaya and others have more locals rushing to migrate because of the high rises. However in reality, Georgetown is a far more developed city in terms of human development, culture and the fact that it is part of Penang, which is the Silicon Valley of Asia!

Not really.. malaysians migrate to KL/PJ cuz the economic opportunity over there is far bigger thn penang. Foreigners migrated to penang not for jobs but instead retirement. 2 different needs
@@andrewtang1209 Hi, Andrew, as a matter of fact I did and still do ! ... I really hope to return there as soon as possible. May be in 2023 ? ... If possible before the end of this Year ? A British Friend of mine, that I met for the first time in Georgetown about nine years ago plan to visit it in November. Best regards and Keep in touch Andrew.
Sebab majoriti penduduk Georgetown ialah bangsa Cina. Di Malaysia kami meraikan identiti budaya masing2. Tapi kami tetap "Satu Malaysia". Dan Tak semua tempat di Penang majoriti Cina. Hanya di Bandar/Kota Besar. Kalau mengikut sejarah, British menempatkan bangsa Cina di kawasan Bandar/Kota di seluruh Malaysia. Disebabkan itu, kebanyakan kawasan Kota di Malaysia banyak papan tulisan Cina. Tapi sekarang penduduk Bangsa Melayu semakin ramai di kawasan Kota kerana kelahiran yang semakin bertambah.
This is awesome
thanks

It is beautiful city bro...
Penang needs more time to develop. Those dark color growing on the sides of the old buildings are the mold.
Nice driving tour 👍
Thank you 👍
Why Georgetown so empty but lots of skyscrapers while Kuantan is full of people whole day but got less high rises 😅
Because this is during covid and what if you go before covid? You can’t even have a double park here to drop someone
yes, i think during covid and on sunday i think
Can you drive at Air Itam?
I'm back in Seremban already
@@WalkingDrivingTours What!!
@@WalkingDrivingTours Only for a day, so short.
I actually have few more videos of Penang. Was driving around, not sure covered Air Itam.
Thanks a lot for the drive and for sharing.
By the way, could you indicate roughly what time it was when you drove through Georgetown ?
Best Regards.
This was early in the morning after breakfast about 9am

Kenapa di Penang ini banyak Sekali papan papan Tulisan China Tiongkok. apa sebenarnya Identitas di malaysia ini maaf ngomong saja
Buta ke bang?
Di Malaysia masih dibenarkan tulisan bahasa ibunda masing2 dengan syarat wajib ada BM di atas atau bawahnya. Tidak ada hubungan sama tiongkok

@@suhanjayalian5044 itu keistimewaan setiap negeri di Malaysia lol..kalau di Kelantan tulisan jawi, why not Pulau Pinang tulisan cina ?
