Guest: Eugene Quah Ter-Neng, Independent Researcher and Writer

USA Today published its "Top 100 biggest tourist traps worldwide" list, and our very own Penang Hill was placed at No 9. This led to the Penang State tourism committee chairman Wong Hon Wai dismissing the list and saying the research behind it is poor. So we first talk about whether this list is warranted; then our listeners share their own memories of Penang Hill, and other great places to visit in the country.
