“Through the state government’s efforts, several documents such as the Penang Heritage Enactment 2011, the Penang Heritage Regulations 2016 and the George Town Unesco World Heritage Site Special Area Plan have been gazetted to preserve heritage buildings,” he added. “It should be carried out often so that more people will understand the importance of preserving our world heritage status,” he said.
