The Rice Miller (GPS: 5.41541, 100.34287) is a luxury hotel along Weld Quay, in George Town, Penang. At time of writing (January 2013), construction of the hotel is still in progress. The project is expected to include residential properties, a boutique hotel, commercial offices and a retail arcade. Facilities envisioned for the development include a private club, a spa, delicatessens, cafés and restaurants. An update in April 2015 shows that the hotel is nearing complex but with still loose ends to tie up.
The Rice Miller was named in memory of the late rice milling tycoon, Phuah Hin Leong, who was born Lim Choo Guan, as the developer, Asian Global Business, belongs to Phuah Hin Leong's descendants.

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.
