Penang International Floral Festival Dec 2008

The Penang International Floral Festival was held on the month of December of 2008. Strange to me is that, in 1 year, there was 2 of them was held. I thought it was an annual thing but as I’ve posted before, there was a similar event during the middle of the year. But this time, the event was much bigger and was much publicized. As for the flowers, the varieties are there and the main attraction was the tram ride which unfortunately, I wasn’t able to ride on them due to the long queues! It was a hot day and there were lots of visitors but that does not stop me from taking pictures!

Need to warn you though… this post has a lot of pictures!

Campbell Street CNY Celebration

Just a small number of pictures for this posting. I took a walk around Campbell Street and then to the Khoo Kongsi and have taken a few pictures. This event was held right around Chinese New Year time, I forgot what was the precise date because it has been almost 7 months.

This is the January edition. Didn’t take much photos because I was quite late when I arrived there… Enjoy the pics!

She’s a Jazz singer from Brazil. She’s got a powerful and sultry voice. I get the feeling of like erm, Brazilian party when she sang! Haha…

Georgetown, Penang has been listed!

Alright, a bit of a late posting. Too many backlogs to settle and I still have my day job to attend to! LOL!

Anyways, it’s a great day for the city to be listed as one of the Heritage Sites. It will sure put Penang into the tourism map. It will be a great awaraness campaign outside of the country. It’ll be a great recognition! Now that Penang will be a known heritage spot, hopefully that the state government will be able to upgrade the facilities here. Need not explain more of it, which I am sure that the state government will be doing a great job to upkeep the facilities and of course, to keep everything clean.

Without delaying, here are some of the photographs that I took on that historical day!
