Abstract

Changkat is a small village in Seberang Perai Selatan (Malaysia) where Malays, Chinese and Indians live within their individual communities, yet side-by-side with each other. The village is not very remote but there is no public transport to it. The Changkat jetty is quite a distance from the village and it is a 10-minute motorcycle ride to reach it. The jetty at Tengah River, which is also the river that marks the boundary of Batu Kawan island from this side, is home to almost 20 boats. Like Changkat village, and unlike most small jetties in Penang, the fishermen are multi ethnic: Malays, Chinese and Indians.
