Fort Cornwallis, Penang

Today, I visited Fort Cornwallis which is located of the north-eastern coast of Penang.
Fort Cornwallis is the largest standing fort in Malaysia.
If you think the man you see behind me is Sir Selamat Datang, you’re wrong. ‘Selamat Datang’ is Malaysian and it just means ‘Welcome’. In fact, the man behind me is Sir Francis Light, who was the founder of the British colony of Penang (now Malaysia) and its capital Georgetown in 1786.
