Established in 1881, the Penang Chinese Town Hall is a significant historical building in Penang, Malaysia, founded with substantial contributions from various donors, including the prominent Chung Keng Quee. This venue played a crucial role in the Chinese community's activism, notably during the 1905 boycott of American goods aimed at improving immigration policies. The Town Hall has a rich history of leadership and community involvement, with ongoing discussions about its founding date reflecting its importance in local heritage.
