جورج تاون George Town هي عاصمة ولاية پنانگ في ماليزيا. جورج تاون هي ثالث أكبر مدينة في ماليزيا من حيث التعداد بتعداد 708,127 نسمة اعتبارا من 2010، بينما پنانگ الكبرى هي ثاني أكبر تجمع حضري في ماليزيا بعد كوالا لمپور الكبرى بتعداد 2,412,616 نسمة.[6][7][8] وقد قـُيـِّد القلب التاريخي لجورج تاون كـ موقع تراث عالمي من اليونسكو منذ 2008.[9]

تأسست كمنفذ تجاري علي يد فرانسس لايت من شركة الهند الشرقية في 1786، كانت جورج تاون أول مستوطنة بريطانية في جنوب شرق آسيا.[10] ومع سنغافورة و ملقا، شكلت جورج تاون جزءاً من مستوطنات المضائق، التي أصبحت مستعمرة للتاج البريطاني في 1867. وقد أخضعتها اليابان أثناء الحرب العالمية الثانية، قبل أن يعيد البريطانيون الاستيلاء عليها في نهاية الحرب. وقـُبيل حصول الملايو على استقلالها من البريطانيين في 1957، أُعلِنت جورج تاون مدينة من قِبل الملكة إلزابث الثانية، جاعلة إياها أول مدينة في التاريخ الحديث للبلد.

بسبب امتزاج الأعراق والديانات المختلفة التي وصلت إلى شواطئها، اكتسبت جورج تاون تشكيلة متباينة من الطرازات المعمارية الاستعمارية والآسيوية.[11] كما اكتسبت سمعة كعاصمة تذوق الطعام في ماليزيا لطعام الشارع المتميز والمنتشر في كل مكان فيها.[12][13][14] علاوة على ذلك، تضم المدينة تراثاً ثقافياً فريداً، مثل الپرانكن، الذين تبقى آثارهم شاخصة في عمارة ومطبخ پنانگ.

تضم مدينة جورج تاون منطقة بيان لپاس الصناعية، وهي مركز تصنيع التقنيات العالية الذي يُعتبر "سيليكون ڤالي الشرق".[15][16] تُعد المدينة أيضًا المركز المالي لشمال ماليزيا والمركز الأكثر حيوية في البلاد للسياحة الطبية.[17][18][19] ولوجستياً، يربط مطار پنانگ الدولي جورج تاون بالعديد من المدن الإقليمية الرئيسية، بينما خدمة عبـّارات وجسر پنانگ وجسر پنانگ الثاني يربطون المدينة بباقي شبه الجزيرة الماليزية. بينما برز رصيف سوِتنهام بجورج تاون كأزحم مرفأ تعريج في ماليزيا للبواخر السياحية.[20][21]

سميت باسم جورج الثالث ملك بريطانيا، وتقع جورج تاون في الركن الشمالي الشرقي من جزيرة پنانگ.

في ع1770، أمرت شركة الهند الشرقية البريطانية فرانسس لايت، الكاپتن في البحرية الملكية البريطانية، بإنشاء علاقات تجارية في شبه جزيرة الملايو.[22][23] إثر ذلك، هبط لايت في قدح، الدولة الخاضعة لسيام والمهدَّدة من كلٍ من سيام وبورما، وكذلك مهددة من ثورة داخلية يقوم بها البوقـِس.[22][24] Aware of this situation, Light formed friendly relations with the then Sultan of Kedah, Sultan Muhammad Jiwa Zainal Adilin II, and promised British military protection, while the Sultan reciprocally offered Penang Island, then part of Kedah.[22][25][26]

Although Light subsequently reported on this offer to his superiors, it was only in 1786 when he was finally ordered to obtain Penang Island from Kedah.[10][22][25] The British East India Company sought control of the island as a Royal Navy base, and as a trading post between China and India.[23] To that end, Light negotiated with the new Sultan of Kedah, Sultan Abdullah Mukarram Shah, regarding the cession of the island to the British East India Company in exchange for British military aid.[10][22][27] After an agreement was signed between Light and the Sultan, Light and his entourage sailed on to Penang Island, where they arrived on 17 July 1786.[28][29]

The area where Light first landed, which is now the Esplanade, was originally a swamp covered in thick jungle.[22][23] Once the area was cleared, a simple ceremony was held on 11 August, during which the Union Jack was raised. Penang Island was renamed the Prince of Wales Island after the heir to the British throne, while the new settlement of George Town was created in honour of King George III.[30][31]

Light developed George Town as a free port, thus allowing merchants to trade without having to pay any form of tax or duties. The policy's intent was to entice traders from the Dutch ports in the region.[32] The number of incoming vessels rose from 85 in 1786 to 3,569 in 1802; George Town's population had also increased to 10,000 by 1792.[33][34][35]

A committee of assessors was established in 1800, making it the first local council to be established in British Malaya.[36] Meanwhile, a Supreme Court was established at Fort Cornwallis in 1808.[37][38]


الفترة الاستعمارية

خريطة من عام 1799 لجورج تاون

In the early 19th century, Penang Island became a centre of spice production within Southeast Asia. Spices such as nutmeg, clove and pepper, produced from the spice farms throughout the island, were exported via the Port of Penang in George Town.[39][40] The spice trade also allowed the British East India Company to cover the administrative costs of Penang.[41]

In 1826, George Town was made the capital of the Straits Settlements, an administrative polity that was also composed of Singapore and Malacca. However, the capital was then shifted to Singapore in 1832, as the latter had usurped George Town's position as the region's preeminent harbour.[42]

Nonetheless, George Town retained its importance as a vital British entrepôt.[43][44] Due to the opening of the Suez Canal, the advent of steam ships and a tin mining boom in the Malay Peninsula, the Port of Penang became a major tin-exporting harbour.[45][46] By the end of the 19th century, as mercantile firms and banks, including Standard Chartered and HSBC, flocked into George Town, the city also evolved into a leading financial centre in Malaya.[29][46]

The city's decline continued into the early 2000s. In 2001, the Rent Control Act, which had protected the low-income residents and smaller businesses within the city centre from arbitrary rental hikes, was repealed.[50][51][52] Consequently, residents moved out of the city's historical core, leaving its colonial-era buildings in disrepair. Meanwhile, an incoherent urban planning policy and poor traffic management led to worsening traffic congestion, while decades of brain drain also took its toll as the city lacked the expertise to regulate urban development.[27][53][54]

السكان

According to the 2010 Census conducted by the Malaysian federal government, George Town had a population of 708,127.[7] More recent estimates from Malaysia's Department of Statistics indicated that about 738,500 inhabitants lived within this cosmopolitan city اعتبارا من 2012.[56] These figures placed George Town as Malaysia's second largest city by population.[7]

In addition, Greater Penang, which also covers Seberang Perai, and parts of neighbouring Kedah and Perak, was home to 2,412,616 residents اعتبارا من 2010.[7] Thus, Greater Penang is the most populous metropolitan area in Malaysia outside the Klang Valley (Greater Kuala Lumpur).[57]

According to Malaysia's Department of Statistics, George Town is a Chinese-majority city; اعتبارا من 2010, over 53% of the urban population consisted of ethnic Chinese، بما في ذلك الـپرانكن.[58] الـبومي‌پوترا، الذين يضمون عرق الملايو و East Malaysian indigenous races like the Dayaks and Kadazans, collectively made up almost 32% of the city's population.[59][60] Ethnic Indians comprised another 9% of George Town's population. These are in addition to small, but prominent, Eurasian and Siamese minorities.[61] In particular, most of the nearly 1,500 Eurasians remain concentrated at the Pulau Tikus suburb.[62][63]

The Peranakans, descendants of mixed Malay and Chinese ancestries, were once the political and business elites in George Town. They held the top positions in some of the city's most influential associations, such as the Penang Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Penang Straits Chinese British Association.[64] As the Peranakans tended to be more loyal to the British Crown than to China, they were also known as the King's Chinese.[65][66] In spite of Malaysia's ethnic policies that have effectively forced the Peranakans to identify themselves as Chinese, Peranakan culture still thrives in George Town to this day, in the form of Straits Chinese architectural styles and dishes like asam laksa.[67]

George Town currently has a sizeable expatriate population, especially from Singapore, Japan and various Asian countries as well as the United Kingdom, many of whom chose to retire in Penang as part of Malaysia My Second Home programme. In recent years, George Town has been acknowledged as one of the best cities for retirement within Southeast Asia by the likes of CNN and Forbes.[68][69] اعتبارا من 2010, expatriates made up nearly 6% of George Town's population, reflecting the city's popularity amongst foreigners.[58][70]

The city was also once home to Burmese, Filipino, Sinhalese, Japanese, Sumatran, Arab, Armenian and Persian communities.[71] A small but commercially significant community of German merchants existed in George Town as well, as did a Jewish enclave.[72] Even though most of these other communities, including the Jews, are no longer extant, they lent their legacy to numerous street and place names such as the Dhammikarama Temple, Burmah Road, Armenian Street, Jewish Cemetery and Gottlieb Road.[71][73][74]

اللغات

As with other multi-ethnic cities in Malaysia, all four major languages are widely spoken in George Town – Malay, English, Chinese and Tamil. However, George Town, and by extension Penang, is best known for its distinct Hokkien dialect, known as Penang Hokkien.[75]

During the British colonial era, English was the official language. This was helped by the mushrooming of missionary schools throughout George Town, all of which used English as their medium of instruction and were held in high esteem by the locals.[76] Most Penangites still maintain reasonable command of the language; while British English is formally used, spoken English usually takes the form of Manglish.[77]

As in the rest of Malaysia, Malay is currently the official language in George Town. The city's Malays also use a variant of the Kedah Malay dialect, with slight modifications made to the original dialect to suit the conditions of a cosmopolitan city.[78] These modifications include the use of words of Indian origin and the alteration of the final l syllable into i.[78]

Due to their Tamil ancestry, most Indians in George Town speak Tamil. Punjabi and Telugu are also spoken by smaller numbers of Indians.[79][80] Meanwhile, George Town's Chinese population uses a variety of Chinese dialects, including Hakka and Cantonese. Mandarin, more widely used by youths, has been the medium of instruction in Chinese schools throughout Penang.[81]

However, Penang Hokkien serves as the lingua franca of George Town. Originally a variant of the Minnan dialect, over the centuries, Penang Hokkien has incorporated a large number of loanwords from Malay and English. It is spoken by many Penangites regardless of race for communication purposes.[75][82][83] In recent years, there have been more efforts to maintain the dialect's relevance in the face of the increasing influence of Mandarin and English among the younger populace.[84][85]

الاقتصاد

As the capital city of Penang, one of the most urbanised states in Malaysia, George Town is one of the top contributors of Malaysia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and tax income.[86][87][88] According to the Economist Intelligence Unit, the city contributed US$12,044, or nearly 8%, of Malaysia's personal disposable income in 2015, second only to Kuala Lumpur.[89] In 2016, George Town was ranked Malaysia's most attractive destination for commercial property investment by Knight Frank, surpassing even Kuala Lumpur.[90] By 2017, Penang's GDP per capita, already the highest among Malaysian states, rose to RM49,873, thereby surpassing the World Bank's threshold to be considered a high-income economy.[91][92] George Town's popularity amongst foreign investors has contributed to Penang gaining the largest share of Malaysia's foreign direct investments within the same year.[93]

Originally established as an entrepôt by the British, George Town's economy is now dominated by other tertiary sub-sectors ranging from manufacturing to finance, whilst newer industries, including entrepreneurial startups, are taking root within the city as well.[15] In addition, George Town serves as the economic pole of northern Malaysia, with relatively wide logistical connectivity.[87] The Penang International Airport is one of the nation's busiest, whilst Swettenham Pier has cemented the city's reputation as a popular destination for cruise shipping.[20][88][94]

Since the 1970s, manufacturing formed the backbone of Penang's economy, generating 44.8% of the state's GDP اعتبارا من 2017 and attracting about 3,000 firms to set up operations within the state.[91][95] The Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone, dubbed the Silicon Valley of the East, is the main electronics manufacturing hub within Malaysia.[15][16][96] Located at the southeastern corner of Penang Island, the zone is home to various high-tech multinational firms, including Dell, Intel, AMD, Motorola, Agilent, Renesas, Osram, Bosch, Sony and Seagate.

التمويل

George Town was the centre of banking in Malaysia at a time when Kuala Lumpur was still a small outpost. The oldest bank in Malaysia, Standard Chartered, opened its main branch in George Town in 1875 to cater to the financial requirements of early European traders.[29][46] This was followed by HSBC in 1885 and the Royal Bank of Scotland in 1888.[29][46]

Today, George Town remains the banking hub of northern Malaysia, with branches of major international banks such as Standard Chartered, HSBC, Citibank, UOB, OCBC, Bank of China and Bank Negara Malaysia (Malaysian central bank).[97] Most of the foreign banks still maintain their Penang headquarters at Beach Street, which serves as the city's main Central Business District.[46]

Since the 1990s, Northam Road, along with Gurney Drive, has evolved into George Town's second Central Business District.[98] Northam Road is now home to a cluster of financial services, with a number of accounting, auditing and insurance firms based along this coastal road.[99] In addition to these, the Employees Provident Fund, run by the Malaysian federal government, operates an office at the road as well.[100]

The financial sector and its related industries, such as insurance, auditing and real estate transactions, accounted for over 8% of Penang's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) اعتبارا من 2017.[91]
