Jalan Yap Tai Chi is a minor road in the Bukit Bintang neighbourhood of Kuala Lumpur. It connects with Jalan Imbi on one end and Jalan Palmer on the other. The road was named after the tin miner and tycoon who was the fourth son of Kapitan Cina Yap Kwan Seng. Yap Tai Chi had a rubber goods factory along Jalan Pudu which started operating in 1929. He passed away in 1950. The road was named in his honour nine years later.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.

To get to know me better, do follow me on Facebook!
