Discover Macallum Neighbourhood
zhlédnutí 878Před 2 měsíci
Macallum is a working-class neighbourhood of George Town, Penang. A large portion of the land here is reclaimed from the sea in the mid 1970s for the construction of low-cost flats to house the working class of George Town. The area derives its name from Macallum Street Ghaut, the road that extends in to sea. The whole area of sea was reclaimed and a neighbourhood was created out of it. On this...

The old Cold Storage used to be one of the few places you could get western food and cooking ingredients. It was popular with the members and family of Australian servicemen stationed in the Butterworth airbase. I loved to eat their custard tarts when I was a child. The Garage if I'm not mistaken was previously the car showroom of British Leyland (a defunct British automaker).
Wow! Very nice
The building where Sleepy Seniorita is Sunbeam Hall, residence of Khoo Sian Ewe?
@soonpohtay4794 is it? Thanks, will continue finding out to confirm that.
Thank you, Timothy. Only Penangites can appreciate this. 2:26
Gorgeous buildings, thank you Khoo clan for opening them to the public. Lovely video and Thank you for the narration. I learnt more about the history of the place from your tour than when I was there. Can please leave the descriptions longer on the screen? Many of them disappear before one can finish reading them.
Thank you for the efforts
My pleasure
8:42 Mot of fucking violence..😂😂
My apologies for the subtitles going crazy!
The floor brick pattern which the Think City guy couldn't identify is a Stack Bond Variation.
We're Indonesians, we love Penang. Always want to come back to Penang. Watching the reclamation progress from the beginning. We are going this mid August. Can't wait to walk by the Gurney bay.
❤❤Nice ❤️❤️🇲🇾🇲🇾
Hotel introduction is elaborate, food selection and choice is plentiful, quite an elegant & stylish hotel.
Hi Timothy! I am moving from the US to Penang early next year and your videos are helping me get familiar with my future home. When you get a chance, could you take a walk from Straits Quay, past the Andaman Quayside condos over to Tanjung Bungah beach? I would like to get more familiar with the Tanjung Bungah beach area. Thank you for making these videos!
Hi Timothy, Thanks for the post. It seems as though the DAP Government is punishing Penang by approving the construction of these horrible residential projects. Poor infrastructure planning and high density projects will definitely result in poor quality of life, which I'm sure nobody wants! Penangites who love this once beautiful island should do something to save Penang from this destruction, which seems to have become the norm. Also, I just wonder if these ugly high-rise, high density buildings are actually constructed to withstand tremors and quakes. They seem to be getting closer to our region each time they strike...
👍👍
I am quite disappointed with the local gov. For all projects and constructions, they do not have an official side to disclose the masterplan and the progress of the projects. Very oftern, the public do not have what actually building by the gov. And even the result of they they built will 100% different than what they annouced from the very beginning.
Very interesting!
Glad you think so!
Please do something about the faulty subtitles !
Yes please.
Erm.. the auto subtitle is pretty bad. Georgetown become Josh Town.. Ford Valley become F* Valley...I don't think you need subtitle.. Your English is pretty good and clear. :)
Am quite shocked with the subtitles! oh my!
@@elliesuniverse7851 I will delete the crazy auto subtitles.
@@discoverwithtimothyBut they're still there. Spoil your video lah.
the auto subtitle is very bad, at 9:50 you see f*cking valleys
Sure, will look into it immediately. Meanwhile I will remove the auto subtitles first.
we have just returned from Malaysia, spent 4 nights in this most marvelous hotel, best memories and impressions only❤❤❤
Fabulous!
Very good tour, it was great seeing sights from our last holiday in GeorgeTown. We visited at Chinese New Year - we enjoyed our time there but too busy and too much traffic! Next time we will choose another time! Thank you.
I hope my videos will be able to provide you insights into the history of the streets you walk on.
Thank you Timothy
You're most welcome, Irene.
Another excellent and informative George Town street guide. Thank you so much.
Delighted you enjoy it. Lots of videos to come, just no time to put them up!
Wow. So much history on a familiar street.
Now the next time you walk down Chulia Street, you will do so with newly acquired knowledge and appreciation of it!
prior to the construction of the air itam bypass, the construction site contained an abandoned quarter whenever I jogged around the tun sardon area during my a-level period in 2012 and 1st half of 2013. I still vividly remember the kampung buah pala protests against the construction of the oasis condo in 2009 which is currently replaced by the new Taman Buah Pala with its signage at its entrance.
Thanks for sharing your insight. I always love to hear from people's knowledge of the site.
我的鳥窩屋子差不多要建好了😂😂😂😂

very informative!
Glad you liked it
Thanks Timothy, for the walk down memory lane.
Thanks so much.
Your vlogs are great.. thankyou....pool dont look that interesting....hotel.very nicevtho😅
Thank you, Pauline!
🆒🤙🆒😎
I learn a lot about Penang Road, thanks
Glad to hear that!
very interesting street.. with beautiful old mansions with history.. but not being rude.. its such a shame.. that hawkers centre is such an eye sore.. with very thirdworld type of vibe.. Penang people should try to improve their visual aesthetic.. why not build a beautiful hawker centre that will enhance the area.. surely its not that difficult..
No sir, you are not being rude at all. Unfortunately, I also agree with you!
I had the opportunity to arrive in PIA when the airside floor was fully carpeted! #YTJT
Perfect 👌
Glad you think so!
Excellent.
Many thanks!
Great video on Leith Street, Timothy. Edison Hotel, once known as Cathay Hotel was a mansion built by tycoon Yeoh Wee Gark & he named his mansion, Venus House. The bungalow at the centre of the Red Garden Food Paradise hawker centre was built by tycoon Tye Yee Koon & was his primary residence.
Oh yes, the name Yeoh Wee Gark escaped me when I walked the street. Actually, I have forgotten it, even though I was told it when I stayed there.
Kumpul duit, i want to try presidential suite!!!
Boleh!
If I'm not mistaken, Convent School Penang Road used to be in that complex as well. Can you confirm or otherwise. Thanks
Oh, is it? Which complex do you mean?
Please don't take this as a criticism but I think you misunderstood. We are not critical of the captions, only that it disappears too fast, and we requested it stays on for a few seconds more. If it's not too much to ask, can we have both. Thanks.
I will try to include the captions.
Excellent tour.
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent as always, Timothy. I shall make a point to visit the Catholic church enclave in a few months'. Like the protestant cemetery (my favourite place in George Town) it's another peaceful haven in the busy city.
One day I will take you on a video tour of the Protestant Cemetery.
@@discoverwithtimothy Excellent. Some of the inscriptions on the gravestones are really quite heartbreaking. There are fascinating stories there.
Very useful tour
Thanks a lot
Beautiful tour.. 👍💯🤗🚶😁✌️😘
Thank you so much, Eddy.
portulaca or moss rose very pretty.
Thank you! The name escaped me.
Suara ok lah tapi memang berhati kuat negara! Caya sama lu!
thanks for information
Welcome
Please leave the captions on for a few extra seconds, and I enjoy watching your walking videos. Thank you
Yes please, will leave it on longer in subsequent videos!
