Queensbay Mall to George Town
From Queensbay Mall (the clip starts from under the Penang Bridge) to The Whiteaways Arcade George Town, using the dedicated cycling lane (until Karpal Singh drive) by the sea.
Overview:
Some stretches were not connected due to land issues but nevertheless, it does provide a smooth journey (no rabid dogs, no annoying drug addicts!). Don't worry about getting dehydrated, there are stalls along the cycling lane. There's a McD (Sausage McMuffin with Egg doesn't sound too guilty when you are riding) too.
One you reached Karpal Singh Drive, you can:
1. Ride across Jalan Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu by going underneath the highway to go to KOMTAR, Jelutong, Ayer Itam OR
2. You can also turn left once you are down from the crooked bridge and head on to Weld Quay, Little India, Esplanade and YES
You can pretty much ride to anywhere in George Town from here. Be wary, the traffic around KOMTAR can be a little too much to handle at times.

We want to invite you on a journey of 12 Stories.
Stories shape who we are. We listen to them growing up, and they teach us our values, show us how we fit into the world, help us connect with our history and culture. Storytelling is a circle transcending generations. A circle connecting us to our past and to our future.
For the George Town Festival 2017, we’re bringing you 12 Stories. Presented by local community artists and creatives, you’ll experience the stories of George Town through live storytelling, short films and poetry.
This year, we’ve chosen “Arrivals” as our theme. Discover how the Naataman of Taiping finds true love in Penang, or listen to the tale of the Batik Bunny’s search for home. Watch the journey of Hokkien Mee from China to our island, or unravel the conflict between three actors on film. We’ve chosen people from diverse backgrounds to tell diverse stories in different ways. We hope that you’ll find stories that resonate with you, move you and entertain you.
We invite you to come be a part of this circle of past, present and future. Do kindly register your attendance with us by clicking here. Bring your family, friends and community. We believe it is time to reconnect our circle of storytelling. After all, who are we without our stories?
With love,
The Bad Wolves

Dates: July 29 - Sept 2, 2017
Venue: Whiteaways Arcade, George Town, Penang
How do maps and plans reflect and also shape our cities,communities and identities? It is believed that Penang, founded in 1786, provided the template for Singapore's town planning. Modern Singapore is providing a possible development model for Penang today. Penang and Singapore were conjoined in 1867, 150 years ago, when both became part of the Straits Settlements to be administered under the British Crown. Our histories have overlapped, converged, diverged and re-converged over time, a duet set in motion by Malaya’s former colonial government. Drawing their inspiration from history and current issues, artists from Malaysia and Singapore present their reflections of this symbiotic relationship.

只需RM9.90起就能在 @Saigon Bowl 享用一大碗美味的Phở，而且这里的越南河粉Recipe是源自越南某家著名连锁店的，所以汤头和配料都非常讲究，仅仅是牛肉清汤但味道非常复杂但清甜，用料十足而且熬滚超过7小时~
#装潢：营业在Whiteaway Arcade原本就是时尚但带点怀旧风格，而Saigon Bowl将越南风情注入到装潢内，带点时尚越南风格，而且这里拍照都好好看，适合打卡拍照~
#PhoBeefCombo【RM18.90】：Saigon Bowl的招牌Pho，除了有醇厚清甜汤底搭配河粉，还有加入牛肉丸、澳洲Ribeye肉片、澳洲Brisket肉片等，真的是牛味十足，喜欢牛肉的朋友绝对会轻易爱上~
#PhoChickenCombo【RM13.90】：很多槟城人不吃牛肉，没问题啦!! 还有第二招牌，搭配鸡胸肉片和鸡肉丸，19种香料再搭配熬滚7小时的鸡汤，一样清甜美味，鸡肉片还很嫩呢~
#DryPho with Fried Chicken & Poached Egg【RM13.90】：不喜欢牛肉也不喜欢清汤？没问题啦，这里还有干捞版本的Pho，而且还有一小碗特调酱汁可以根据自己喜好加入搅拌。另外还有搭配滑嫩烧鸡和荷包蛋~
#MilkyChickenRice with Sunny Side Up【RM14.90】：不喜欢牛肉不喜欢清汤不喜欢河粉，是饭桶一枚？再次没问题啦!! 这里还有一大碗的白米饭，搭配腌制至软嫩的鸡肉，搭配Mushroom Sauce和太阳蛋哦~
#越南小吃：这里还可以找到很多越南道地的小吃，招牌的 #越南薄饼 肯定有了，另外还有几款炸的小吃，看起来有点像我们本地炸糕，但事实上馅料完全不同，吃起来还甜滋滋呢~
#SaigonDessertPlatter【RM12.90】：结合了三款六件的甜品，包括Banana Spring Roll, Sweet Cassava Roll和Tapioca Fritters，每一件都是甜甜的，有香蕉甜味或者木薯的甜味，不够甜还可以沾沾特调炼奶~

The poverty line photography exhibition by Chow x Lin for George town festival
The poverty line by CHOW and LIN.
Photo exhibition at Whiteaways arcade Penang for George town festival
THE WHITEAWAYS ARCADE
11 AUG - 2 SEP 2018 (EXCL. MONDAYS)
11:00AM - 6:00PM
FREE TO ATTEND
The Poverty Line explores a simple question: what does poverty mean?
The visual project is a project by Chow and Lin, an artist duo. It began in China in 2010 and has since expanded to 28 countries across 6 continents. The Poverty Line uses the universal lens of food to examine the choices you would face if you lived at the poverty line.
The exhibition shows a series of photographs where each picture denotes the daily food choice a poor person will have in a particular country at the time the photo was made. The food items are placed on local newspapers purchased on the day of the shoot, with the dimensions and lighting carefully measured to have a uniform aesthetic across time and geographical spread
