Shining a light on childhood cancer

PENANG’s iconic Komtar tower is sporting a golden glow until the end of this month to mark Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

It joins many other landmarks worldwide in the global initiative to raise awareness of the disease’s prevalence among young people and to rally communities around families affected by it.
