Penang Flower Fest

Every year, Penang, without fail, celebrate the Penang Flower Fest. It is one of the mean to draw more visitors to Penang. I think, the need to draw visitors is more critical now, as Penang is now under the opposition's leadership. It is unknown whether the contribution from the Federal Government has reduced the like of another state Terengganu earlier.

The Penang Fest draws more visitors who came to witness the plants in the bonsai and adenium competition. There were 150 participants who show their products.

Remember that the Botanical Garden had planted the giant water lily imported from Amazon. The leaves can reach 5 feet in diameter.
