"Too Narrow is a Sculpture at Work sculpture erected at Soo Hong Lane, George Town, Penang. It is on the wall near the junction with Armenian Street. The sculpture depicts a boisterous ricksaw man breaking away from his rickshaw, which is too wide to enter the lane, and the ricksaw man continued down the lane, leaving his passengers behind.
Too Narrow is a caricature by cartoonist to provide an amusing insight into the characteristic of Soo Hong Lane." Text Source:
