Welcoming sign: A new beautification project sponsored by DNP Land Sdn Bhd at the Bukit Tengah roundabout in Seberang Prai. It has 47 date palm trees, 24 artificial betel nuts and the wording, 'Selamat Datang Ke Seberang Perai'.
MANY local Malays fondly refer to the island and mainland of Penang as pulau and seberang while George Town is known as tanjong.
To the Hokkiens, many say ki Penang when going to the island and ki Pakhai to mean going to Butterworth or the mainland.
