Penang, also called PULAU PINANG, a leading port of Malaysia, situated on a triangular promontory in the northeastern sector of the island of Penang. Its sheltered harbor is separated from the west-coast Malayan mainland bya 3-mile (5-kilometre) channel through which international shipping approaches from the north to avoid the many shallows of the southern route. The town was founded as Fort Cornwallis in 1786 byCaptain Francis Light of the British East India Company and flourished as a port of call for shipping on the India-China run.   

It became for a time the capital and commercial centre of the Straits Settlements. A restored Fort Cornwallis, St. George's Church (1817), and the Esplanade recall the town's colonial past. As a thriving entrepôt, George Town attracted Chinese (mainly Hokkien and Cantonese) and Indian traders. Although Chinese and European culture predominates, there is a sizable Malay minority in the city.
