George Town celebra 18 años como sitio de Patrimonio Mundial de la Unesco 07.07.2026

Malay Mail

Desde su inscripción como sitio de Patrimonio Mundial de la Unesco el 7 de julio de 2008, George Town ha evolucionado hasta convertirse en una próspera ciudad de patrimonio vivo. Al celebrar 18 años de reconocimiento, la ciudad ha logrado equilibrar con éxito la preservación de su Valor Universal Excepcional con el desarrollo económico moderno. Mediante la reutilización adaptativa, edificios históricos se han transformado en hoteles boutique, museos y galerías, revitalizando el paisaje urbano. Líderes de Penang, incluidos Jason H’ng Mooi Lye y el Ministro Jefe Chow Kon Yeow, enfatizaron que la fuerza de la ciudad reside en sus tradiciones multiculturales y la unidad de su comunidad. Para apoyar la conservación, el gobierno estatal proporciona importantes incentivos financieros, ofreciendo hasta RM200,000 para edificios patrimoniales de Categoría I y RM50,000 para estructuras de Categoría II. Este enfoque colaborativo entre los organismos gubernamentales y la comunidad garantiza que George Town siga siendo un referente mundial para la gestión sostenible del patrimonio urbano y la continuidad cultural.
