Serious rewrite is needed

Several incorrect information appears to have been added. I have not found any supporting evidence that Zulkifli Long is the district head, nor the district's population was based on the 2010 Census by Malaysia's Department of Statistics. In fact, the infobox appears messy; a generic map of Malaysia does not show much details on the district's location, while the website displayed is that of the Penang Island City Council, not the district office's website. Also, there is alot more content on George Town than it should be.

I have rewritten the article to make it more relevant to the title of this article. Vnonymous (talk) 20:35, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move to North-East District (Penang)

The official English name of Daerah Timur Laut is simply North-East District: see https://dun.penang.gov.my/images/ENAKMEN%20WARTA%20KERAJAAN/Enakmen_Lembaga_Muzium_dan_Perbekalan_2021/RUU%20PERBEKALAN%202021.pdf

Per Wikipedia naming conventions this page should be moved to North-East District (Penang); see eg North-East District (Botswana).
