The excrept was from The Food Book by Lonely Planet that schedule for publication on February 14 2014 based on article written by Robin Barton. He further eloborate that although Malaysian hawker food has spread worldwide through "food trucks and pop-ups", nothing compared it with the actual experience of eating in Penang. "Its food reflects the intermingling of the many cultures that arrived after it was set up as a trading port in 1786, from Malays to Indians, Acehnese to Chinese, Burmese to Thais. State capital George Town is its culinary epicentre," he said.

CNN Travel, in November 2013, had also named Penang as having one of the best street foods in Asia under article titled George Town, Penang: Asia’s greatest street food city? http://travel.cnn.com/george-town-penang-asias-greatest-street-food-city-657636

Second reason: Retire in Penang | Penang has been ranked third for the best place in the world to retire in their 2013 survey done by International Living http://internationalliving.com/2012/12/the-worlds-top-retirement-havens-in-2013/and their correspondent Keith Hockton just published an article Escape To A Tropical Island (And Live On USD1,500 A Month) http://internationalliving.com/2014/02/escape-to-a-tropical-island-and-live-on-1500-a-month/. In the article Thomas O'Neal discovered by himself how the choice he made is a prudence and wise move. "I figured that I’d take a chance and move lock, stock, and barrel. I could have just visited but where is the fun in that?, he said. Adding further "I rent a 1,600-square-foot apartment with an amazing pool, just five minutes’ walk from the ritzy Gurney Plaza shopping mall. It costs me just USD850 a month. I don’t need a car either so I’m saving money left, right and center. I love the weather—82 F on average—and Malaysia’s closeness to Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. When you combine that with a cost of living of USD1,500 per month including my rent, it’s almost unbeatable," says Thomas.

Question: What is Green Building Index? by Greenbuildingindex Sdn Bhd

Answer: The Green Building Index (GBI) is Malaysia's industry recognised green rating tool for buildings to promote sustainability in the built environment and raise awareness among Developers, Architects, Engineers, Planners, Designers, Contractors and the Public about environmental issues and our responsibility to the future generations.

The GBI rating tool provides an opportunity for developers and building owners to design and construct green, sustainable buildings that can provide energy savings, water savings, a healthier indoor environment, better connectivity to public transport and the adoption of recycling and greenery for their projects and reduce our Impact on the environment.

GBI is developed specifically for the Malaysian-tropical climate, environmental and developmental context, cultural and social needs and is created to:
• Define green buildings by establishing a common language and standard of measurement;
• Promote Integrated, whole-building designs that provides a better environment for all;
• Recognise and reward environmental leadership;
• Transform the built environment to reduce its negative environmental Impact; and
• Ensure new buildings remain relevant in the future and existing buildings are refurbished and upgraded to improve the overall quality of our building stock.
