We visited the tiny fishing village of Pulau Betong on the quieter side of the island in Penang, Malaysia. The houses in this village all sit on the jetty and you can't really buy homes here because all these houses just stay within the family and have been passed down for hundreds of years. Due to overfishing in the waters near the island, fishing is no longer a lucrative occupation, so the Malaysian government helps support this fishing village by providing them with a special fishing license to allow them to fish in the area and also pays them much more than the actual worth for the fish they catch. #malaysia #penang #pulaubetong #balikpulau #fishingvillage #penangisland (at Pulau Betong) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0EAs9AlR72/?igshid=wkg5h2f1s72a
