This is part of the 6 Chinese clan jetties in Weld Quay, Penang where the houses are built on the water. The clan jetties used to stay by those who shared the same surname. But now, it's open to anyone and even migrants workers are staying here. The younger generations are moving out to town to get better living. This living heritage legacy serves as a reminder to the past on the hardship by the forefathers who came from China. This clan jetties must be preserved as it have a lot of history, cultural and social values.
