Prai, Penang
Prai, alternatively known as Perai, is a township and a major
industrial area located in Penang, Malaysia. It is situated in
Seberang Perai, which is on the mainland. This town gives its name
to Seberang Perai. The town begin with a settlement located along
the Perai River which has been existed since the 18th century. It
was earlier known as "Prye" during the British colonial era. This
area is located at the river mouth of the Perai River. Much of the
area were mangrove swamps which was later cleared and developed.
The area was developed from a mangrove swamp into an industrial
area, which is the largest in northern Peninsular Malaysia in the
1970s, with Malayawata and the Pen-Group of companies among the
earliest factories there. After that residential neighbourhoods such
as Chai Leng Park, Taman Inderawasih and Prai Garden were developed
to cater the growing need for housing for employees in the factories
nearby. The Malayan Sugar Manufacturing Co Sdn Bhd (MSM) factory,
which was established in the Prai old town in 1959, still maintains
a unique railway line that passes through its factory to transport
goods to other states.
Penang Bridge, which is the longest bridge in South-east Asia, links
the town on the mainland and Gelugor on Penang Island. The iconic
bridge completed in 2006, which is the Prai River Bridge, part of
the Butterworth Outer Ring Road, links the old part of the town with
Bagan Dalam in Butterworth across the Perai River. There is another
old bridge which is the Tunku Abdul Rahman Bridge, that connects
Butterworth and Perai.
