      <image:title>Stories - Inside Intel - She loved sports and aspired to be a national hockey player. The only catch then: there were not many girls into the sport then and she mostly had to train with boys. “It was really tough - they wouldn’t pass, no one wanted me on their team and I often felt alone. And so I fought to prove myself by putting more hours into training.” She was a state player at the age of 14, made it to the national junior hockey team at 16, and represented the country in the senior women’s team when she was 17. - Jayanthi Kandayah, Director, Asia Talent Acquisition</image:title>

      <image:caption>While there is an alternative to start the ascent during midday in time for sunset, most treks push off at night to catch the break of dawn. Needless to say, the view from the top – especially those fleeting moments before the sun pierces the horizon – is priceless and makes the rocky climb well worth it. One can also catch a glimpse of Mount Catherine in the distance, Egypt’s highest mountain with an elevation of 2,629m. The summit of Mount Sinai stands at 2,285m.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories - Scaling Sinai</image:title>
      <image:caption>According to the Scripture, it was on this mount of solid rock that Moses received the Ten Commandments. It is also revered by Muslims and Jews for the same reason. Mount Sinai attracts people from all over the world; the young and the old, the tourist and the pilgrim. Apart from offering visitors a glimpse into biblical days, there are few better ways to experience the breathtaking vastness of this mountainous region. Here, a fellow trekker awaits his overpriced cup of tea at one of the many butane-lit rest stops along the trail.</image:caption>

This holy place - which bears a fortress-like a façade – is said to be located where God appeared to Moses by the Burning Bush. Its history can be traced back to over seventeen centuries, predating the divisions of the Christian world.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Sharm owes much of its world acclaim to the Red Sea’s rich and diverse ecosystem: approximately 2000 kilometres of coral reef graces its coastline, with over 1200 recorded species of fish. Given the shallowness of its immediate shoreline, Sharm’s enchanting fringing reefs are also highly accessible even for the casual tourist to snorkel. Shipwrecks await the more adventurous. Here, a diving instructor orientates a first-timer before the descend.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Heading out to sea: Contrary to what its name suggests, the Red Sea - an extension of the Indian Ocean - is very much blue in appearance. It is accessible from three fronts: via the Gulf of Aden in the south, the Middle Eastern countries along the Gulf of Aqaba and through the Gulf of Suez in the north which connects to the Mediterranean. Pictured here in the backdrop is the arid expanse of the Sinai Peninsula.</image:caption>

Apart from a multitude of shopping options, this commercialised stretch offers fresh seafood and carries familiar names such as TGI Friday’s, Pizza Hut and Hard Rock Café. Bars and clubs are aplenty for those in search of late night fun. One can also enjoy a quintessential Egyptian pastime: a cup of Turkish coffee coupled with shisha by the sidewalk.</image:caption>

Mohamed does this on a daily basis - sometimes twice a day. “Alibaba”, he hollers, ensuring no one gets left behind while navigating the narrow rocky incline in the midst of other groups. We holler in return. Bundled up beside him here (in rented blankets) are tired, cold climbers. This photograph was taken at the last stop along the trail, approximately 20 minutes from the summit.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Most businesses in and around Naama Bay open only in the afternoon, but tour operators by the waterfront start early, luring tourists into enjoying their morning and rest of the day by the sea – and for good reason. The beaches, waters and coral reefs of Sharm are the driving forces behind the town’s economy and are well taken care of. Pictured here are tourists heading out on boat trips, waiting for their respective tour operators.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“A poncho for you sir? Gloves? Good price. It’s very cold up there”, repeated the swarming pedlars as we got off the bus near the city of Saint Catherine to begin our midnight ascent of Mount Sinai. Groups are accompanied by local Bedouin guides for apart from the stars and moonlit skies, the trail is barely visible in the dark. With temperatures hovering below 10°C, the climb started on a cold note but the prospect of witnessing daybreak from this hallowed peak did enough to stoke our inner fire.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories - Scaling Sinai</image:title>
      <image:caption>En-route: The 8-hour journey along the Ras Sedr–El Tor Road is especially scenic when taken during the day for it runs along the Gulf of Suez  a busy shipping route that connects the Mediterranean Ocean to the Red Sea and Indian Ocean. The overnight bus remains a more practical option for those who want to save time. Security presence is heavy in the Sinai Peninsula, with at least four to five military checkpoints between Cairo and Sharm. Pictured here is a passenger awaiting his bus at a stop just off central Cairo.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>One can enjoy a 15-minute, introductory dive for around 250 Egyptian Pounds (approx. MYR60) – a small sum considering the nature of this opportunity. While there are a few points to bear in mind concerning equipment and underwater communication, the experience is facilitated by an experienced diver throughout. The option to purchase footage of the dive is also made available, as evidenced by this photograph.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories - Scaling Sinai</image:title>
      <image:caption>The descent begins an hour after sunrise. By then, one can already feel the sun’s unforgiving gaze, made more intense given the altitude. The skies are often clear and rain is scarce throughout the year. But daybreak brings the jagged and rocky expanse of the area into light - a stark contrast to the climb, when the stars shine bright and only the silhouettes of granite formations tower overhead. A complete lack of greenery punctuates the otherworldly charm of the place.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Turning of a chapter: The proposed Penang South Reclamation (PSR) scheme will see the creation of three new islands off the southern coast, with the intention of funding the Penang Transport Master Plan - an emphatic attempt by the state government to invigorate economic growth by providing sufficient housing and attracting foreign direct investment with an eye towards a smart city ecosystem. Commencement of the project presently hinges on the approval of an environmental impact assessment report and public feedback.

      <image:caption>The 167-year-old Snake Temple was built in honour of Chor Soo Kong, a Chan Buddhist monk who lived in the Hokkien Province during the Sung Dynasty. It sits on an elevated plot of land, donated by a European devotee said to have been healed by the monk. Snakes, specifically pit vipers, began slithering in not long after it was built. They made it their home and eventually grew into a showpiece for the temple. Here, a family revels in the opportunity of an exotic portrait – a small viper was placed on the older aunty’s head shortly after this photograph was taken, to which she remained smiling and unmoved.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>It’s 10AM on a Saturday morning. The Bayan Baru Market Complex is full of life. Residents both young and old navigate crowded aisles in search and purchase of weekly provisions. One fishmonger in particular belts out Chinese classics while scaling fish – he does this on a daily basis. The adjoining food court is just as alive, offering a multitude of reasonably priced and tasty local cuisine. Uncles and aunties are seen regaling each other with stories over breakfast and coffee. For a landscape that constantly redefines itself to meet the ever-changing demands of technology and industry – its townships, communities, and mornings such as these remain both constant and meaningful.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mr. Albert Lee, a resident of Bayan Baru since 1980, believes that if you hope for positive changes in your own community, you need to participate. Be the change you want to see. Today, he represents a senior figure in the Resident’s Association and is a member of the neighbourhood safety committee (JKKK) set up by the state government. Having worked in the service industry, meeting people and making friends have always come naturally but he adds, “I do this because I’ve been blessed. With a family, a household, a career. This is an opportunity for me to share and give back.” Standing behind him is his youngest son Edric, who is home for a visit before heading off to Holland for his 2017 SEA Games preparations. Edric represents Malaysia in equestrian.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Standing quietly in the midst of heightened urbanisation is the Bayan Lepas market. It was built in 1930, about five years before the opening of the Penang International Airport. A time when the island was still part of the British crown colony. Given the nature of its location, access to the market in the past year has been adversely affected by a traffic reroute accommodating the construction of a major flyover along the busy Jalan Bayan Lepas.</image:caption>

A hike to the top takes between 10 to 40 minutes, depending on fitness level. The atmosphere at the top used to be more communal with the presence of a free-for-all gym and a tea kiosk ran by a like-minded group of hikers. While that has changed, the hill remains a favourite for many.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Given the rate of surrounding urban development, the significance of Bukit Jambul and its neighbouring hills as an avenue of recreation and natural habitat for diverse flora and fauna cannot be overstated. Here, two friends catch a breather with a bird’s-eye view of the expansive Second Penang Bridge and the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone (FIZ). Established in the early 70s, the Bayan Lepas Free Trade Zone (FTZ) as it was known then is the brainchild of the late Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu - the second Chief Minister of Penang. A man fondly remembered for his vision and passion in transforming a slumberous tourist destination into a global manufacturing powerhouse.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A story of firsts. “Back then, almost the entire town was made up of paddy fields and coconut plantations. It was swampy. Imagine, we had snakes and pests constantly entering the buildings.” The arrival of Intel in Penang marked the semiconductor manufacturer’s very first offshore assembly operation. It was 1972, a time when the concept of using a computer was still virtually unknown. Hired to kickstart on-ground operations, Mr. Gordon Tan was Intel Penang’s very first employee. His storied journey with the now-global company, one that wildly ranges from turning a canteen into a makeshift manufacturing plant following a fire to being trained by the FBI in Arizona - spans almost four decades. Today, seemingly sharp as ever, he oversees security for the Gurney Paragon mall.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When he was elected into parliament in 2013, YB Sim Tze Tzin’s mission was to develop the liveability of Bayan Lepas and its surrounding townships into an ecosystem where families and individuals alike can balance living, work and play. Encouraged by the introduction of affordable housing projects, more municipal parks and a Class 1 (dedicated and physically protected path) cycling route that stretches along the coast of Bayan Lepas into George Town, the Bayan Baru MP is currently focused on alleviating traffic congestion and stimulating more job opportunities especially in the tech and manufacturing sectors. Pictured here is YB Sim with his team in the midst of handing out aprons to food vendors during a Ramadan bazaar visit.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"I’m a happy person. I will go to the circus every day and do the same thing. It’s very hard, it’s very difficult. It’s – for most people – seen as crazy, but I love it and I will do it again, without question. If I have a chance to be born again and choose what I want to do, I will go to the circus. I’ll go even earlier. I lost a lot of years trying to do other things and trying to be a normal person.” Kiril Kirilov, circus owner &amp; performer</image:caption>
