Hui Aun Association (1 June 2013)


Hui Aun Association (GPS: 5.41219, 100.3319; Traditional Chinese: 惠安公會; Simplified Chinese: 惠安公会; Penang Hokkien Taiji: Hui33 Aun3 Kong3hoay33; POJ: Hūi-an Kong-hōe, Tâi-lô: Huī-an Kong-huē) is a Hokkien district association founded in 1914. It is located along Magazine Road, across from 1st Avenue Mall. Most of its members are from the working class, including trishaw peddlers, mechanics and construction workers. Women construction workers also joined this association. From this bottom rung of society, a few of its members had risen to become some of the richest and most influential people in Penang. Among them was the late Tan Sri Loh Boon Siew.

The Hui Aun Association is housed in an Art Deco style building from 1938. To celebrate its heritage, the Hui Aun Association recently had its side walls painted with the Woman Construction Workers Mural.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
