                <text>The Malay Muslim quarter of Gerge town, known as Malay Town, was located south of Chulia Street and surrounded by paddy fields and swampy land. It expanded in the early 19th century to include Acheen Street and Armenian Street, forming a layout similar to today. Over time, the Malay presence declined, although they once owed much of the inner city. Due to frequent flooding, traditional houses were built on raised platforms, and some Indo-Malay style buildings still remain today.</text>

              <text>Sir Stamford Raffles had a deep interest in natural history and played a key role in promoting its study across Penang, Singapore, and Indonesia. He supported the collection and documentation of local plants, animals, and geological features, often working with scientists and local experts. His efforts helped lay the groundwork for future research and showed how colonial exploration was closely tied to scientific curiosity and the desire to understand the natural world.</text>
