Komtar (acronym for Kompleks Tun Abdul Razak) is a multipurpose complex consisting of retail outlets, transportation hub and administrative offices for the Penang state government. The building was named after Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, the second prime minister of Malaysia. At the time of its construction in the mid-1970s, Komtar was regarded as one of the cutting-edge buildings in Penang.
The buildings consist of a 12-sided geometric block, 760ft (232m) tall and sitting atop a 4-storey podium. The complex comprises office and retail commercial space as well as public and recreational facilities.
