Where did you find this information? It might be more accurate than what I am finding. As a retired American, no matter whom I talk to, they assume that I have a big fat pension and can afford an expensive place. Were these online sites? And Penang is an island, so what part of the island were these places? Or were they from other parts of Malaysia? This is, I think, an expensive area. Houses or condos? And when were these brochures publilshed?
