Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sultan Yussuf, Batu Gajah

Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sultan Yussuf (GPS: 4.47654, 101.03817) is one of the major schools in Batu Gajah, Perak. It has a history going back to 1907, when it was established by Malai Perumal Pillay¹ who went door-to-door to persuade parents into sending their children to school.

In the early days, school was held within a building provided for by the Batu Gajah Prison. However the community got together and build a new building for the school, enabling more students to be taken in. When the school was handed over to the government, it was renamed the Batu Gajah Government English School. It underwent another name change after the Second World War, becoming known as the Sultan Yussuf School, or SYS, after Sultan Yussuf Izzuddin Shah.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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