So I want to tell you about Penang. It is my hometown, so it is quite obvious that I like it a lot. First is the tradition. Like, we have a lot of tourist attractions, like the ancient ones in the city. Though it might sound quite weird for these types of buildings to still remain in the city, I can say that it is something that we are proud of. So we've been reserving these buildings quite well. So we still have some, and another thing that is related to tradition is the dishes. Like, you have many unique dishes that you can only find in our country. Maybe there are some restaurants out there who try to bring our cuisine, our traditional dishes overseas, but it cannot be the same when you have it in our country. So a famous example would be pho. Like, when you have that in Vietnam, you get the people who could get in our country, they have spent most of the time, 10 or even 20 years cooking the dishes. So they are really experienced. And if you ever talk to them, they'd be really happy just to tell you about how to make it, like, how to make it properly. So, we also have in the city this type of peaceful atmosphere that I like quite a lot.
