A Roundabout at Beach Street

What is this?

Can somebody tells me what is this?

This is a roundabout which located at Beach Street, just around police station there.



Well, I already know what is it, and I just want to know what is the thing inside your mind when you see this. Please share your thought and opinion with me ya!

I will reveal the answer later on, just guess what is it.

***************************************************************

The answer is:
The 4.8m-high metal structure resembling two giant pinang (betel nut) fruits at the roundabout in Beach Street is a beautification project done right. The metal structure portraying two halves of the pinang fruit is placed by the side and one right in the centre is meant to show the determination of Penangites.

SockPeng 提到...

last 3 year , i went to audit MPPP, then we found the cost of this big pinang!! due to P&C, tell u one thing - very expensive - more than 1 condominium price

anyway, this item is sponsored by Ban Hin Lee Bank ( Southern Bank).

Akira 思胜 提到...

Sock Peng:
Yeah, it is very expensive, I found out that this Pinang built on RM350k, which stated in website. I also knew that it was sponsored by the bank too! hehe...

levian 提到...

it didn't looked like it at all !! maybe it resembles in an unique way. XD

迷迭香 提到...

do they really cut the pinang ?
and is this wat u get after that ? @_@

Akira 思胜 提到...

Levian:
It really looks like Pinang actually, if you see properly on the Penang's flag. Hehe.

迷迭香:
It is just a structure based on Pinang, hehe...

levian 提到...

i ain't familiar with the fruit itself to start with. therefore the total blankness. XD

Akira 思胜 提到...

Levian:
Haha, I guess I have to ask the local government on this statement also! hahaha...

ET女子 提到...

ET女子:
Haha, yeah, u got it correctly!
