Ng Kim Kheng's Bungalow (8 February 2013)


Ng Kim Kheng's Bungalow (GPS: 5.41369, 100.32656) is a double-storey detached house off Dato Kramat Road in George Town, Penang. Ng Kim Kheng 黃金慶 was a supporter of Dr Sun Yat Sen. His Indo-Malay style bungalow was built in the 19th century. Its address is 94 Dato Kramat Road.

It was here, at this bungalow, that the Penang Philomatic Union Reading Club (nowadays known as the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall) had its inaugural meeting at the end of January, 1909. This was also one of the places that Dr Sun Yat Sen lodged when he was in Penang in July 1910.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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