Cycling in Penang

Kudos to the CAP for organising the bicycle day in Penang...we should be encouraging people in Malaysia to cycle instead of taking to the streets in their cars.....

But then, our politicians' ideas of progress is to see lots of cars on the roads......more cars more progress....

I wrote something to about the cars that ate up Paris......not only Paris but Beijing as well...it takes the Olympics to realize that there a smog free sky is priceless.....

Oh when can we realise this.....

Penang or Georgetown listed as UNESCO Heritage City

What does it mean- heritage city? What benefits does it bestow and the obligations that comes with it? Should we celebrate it or mourned the conferment on Georgetown ?

Because of the heritage status........we expected everything to be freezed in time, no more development....or development with plastic feel to it an almost Disney type feel, very artificial....

Nobody told me anything and my opinions was not sought...and i pay my yearly assessment to support the Majlis..ie. the City Council....

The waters around Penang Island

On a clear day when your plane aligns itself for the landing at the Bayan Lepas Airport, have a look at the sea below you....and you will be greeted with sudden changes in the colour of the water.

There seems to be a sudden change of the colour from dark grey to green. There is also a black strip like oil separating these two different coloured waters....

Don't know what it is...but definitely...it does not look healthy or clean.
