About Penang Island:
Penang Island is the main constituent island of the Malaysian state of Penang. Located in the Strait of Malacca, off the northwestern coast of Peninsular Malaysia, it is separated from the mainland by the Penang Strait. The island is home to nearly half of Penang's population; the state capital George Town, which covers the island and the five outlying islets, is Malaysia's third-largest city by population.
Formerly known as Prince of Wales Island or Pulo Penang, its city George Town was founded by Francis Light of the British East India Company in 1786. The city once served as the capital of the Straits Settlements, a loose grouping of British crown colonies that included Melaka and Singapore. The island became a regional centre for spice production and a bustling harbour during the heyday of British rule. The Japanese briefly occupied Penang during World War II, before surrendering the colony to the British upon the war's end. Penang was then merged into the Federation of Malaya (now Malaysia), which gained independence from the British in 1957. George Town had been granted city status in that year; the city's jurisdiction was eventually expanded to encompass the entire island by 2015.
