OMBAK Potehi’s upcoming Kisah Pulau Pinang (The Penang Story) is a tale of love and friendship irrespective of race which shone through turbulent times including the Japanese Occupation.

In order to bring the story to life, the collective group of young people behind Ombak Potehi went around to collect stories and oral histories from locals who lived through that period.
