Komtar Bus Terminal (GPS: 5.41408, 100.34157) is a major bus bus in George Town. Most of the buses from the Weld Quay Ferry & Bus Terminal will pass through here before branching off in separate directions.
At the Komtar Bus Terminal, you can catch buses going to the north, central, south and west parts of Penang Island, as well as some buses that go to the mainland. Right now the main bus operator in Penang is the government-owned Rapid Penang. The terminal is located along Tek Soon Street, although buses approach it via Jalan Ria and they emerge from the terminal into Jalan Ria once more.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
