A newer, denser building with roomier homes than most in Tanjung Tokong; living here is middling: reports mention complaints about the management and unhappy residents. About 3 min by car to Stonyhurst International School Penang.

What Tanjung Tokong is like

Tanjung Tokong is a suburb on the north-east coast of Penang Island, with the reclaimed Seri Tanjung Pinang land to its east. It was a quiet fishing village until the 1970s. A Hakka scholar is said to have settled here in the mid-18th century, and the oldest tombstones at its Tua Pek Kong temple are dated 1799. Condominiums have since spread along the shoreline. The 2020 census counted 12,550 people, about 55% Chinese, a third Malay and nearly 5% non-Malaysian.

Island 88, formerly Island Plaza, opened in 1995, and City Junction opened opposite it in the 2020s. Next door at Seri Tanjung Pinang, the developer describes Straits Quay as a seafront retail marina. The suburb's local-listing pages name a seafront promenade and a playground by the sea, and its two primary schools are SK Tanjong Tokong and SJK (C) Hun Bin.

Getting around means Jalan Tanjong Tokong, part of Federal Route 6, which is reported as prone to congestion. An underpass at the Jalan Burma, Jalan Gottlieb and Jalan Bagan Jermal junction was announced in 2019 and was still awaiting federal approval in May 2025. The Mutiara Line LRT is planned to finish in 2031, with no station named at Tanjung Tokong, and an MRT Corp manager has said it could later be extended to Tanjung Bungah.
