GEORGE TOWN: It will be tough for the Teoh siblings if they stop operating the traditional family-run coffee shop business established by their late father 67 years ago. They are dependent on the coffee shop, which sells drinks all day long and economy rice during lunch hours, to support their families. Chin said if they could not find a suitable place to run a coffee shop, she would have to get a job. “Traditional coffee shops are part of Penang’s intangible heritage and I hope that more people, especially the younger generation, will treasure these traditional trades. “We will help the Teoh siblings look for affordable and suitable premises, so that they are able to continue their coffee shop business,” he said.
