THE " TARIK UPIH PINANG "

Accidentally found a piece of old newspaper in my room just now. Oh, it is one of the traditional games in Penang (Pulau Pinang), Malaysia. It's called "TARIK UPIH PINANG", I never knew that was pulling with Pinang leaf! Hah, I thought this game was played with coconut leaf.

TARIK means PULL ; UPIH means SHEATH ; PINANG means ARECA NUT (also PENANG)
