Penang's History, My Story

What infamous street in Penang used to be the haunt of Japanese prostitutes? Which little known George Town road is named after the only Malaysian to be nominated for the Nobel Prize for Medicine?  And how is Penang connected to the famous musical The King and I?

In his book sharing, Penang’s History, My Story, Star Media Group Bhd managing director and CEO Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai takes us down memory lane to visit a Penang full by colourful characters most people have never heard about. Be introduced to the mystery wife of Captain Francis Light, and learn the strange facts behind the killing of Sir Henry Gurney. Who says history has to be boring?
