View Larger Map Jalan Assumption is one of the main roads in Butterworth. It was probably named after Sekolah Kebangsaan Assumption located on its southern end. As is so characteristic of so many roads in Butterworth, Jalan Assumption has a scruffy appearance, as though it is a village road, when in fact it is very near the heart of Butterworth.

The northern end of Jalan Assumption meets Jalan New Ferry and Jalan Chain Ferry in an intersection, continuing northwards as Jalan Sungai Nyior. The southern part ends below the elevated portion of the Butterworth Outer Ring Road.

It is my expectation that Jalan Assumption will undergo massive redevelopment in the coming decade, with high-rise residential properties being planned to take over the existing kampung houses of the area. With that in mind, expect the listing below to undergo changes in the years to come, as the existing businesses and sights make way for development.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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