The Penang Government could be a catalyst in the birth of a cultural and creative hub. Creative sector is a key economic driver globally, in several major economies, the value of the cultural industries ranges between 3% and 6% of the total economy. Rich cultural traditions, ample recreational and entertainment facilities provide enhanced pull factors. Equally, Penang’s linguistic diversity and its population’s facility with languages such as English, Mandarin, Tamil and Malaya are important capacities useful in the regional positioning of Penang.
