Do you have any opinion about the Chinese signs in George Town?

From Pinyin News:
Parts of Penang, Malaysia’s George Town are scheduled to get some new street signs that will include Chinese characters. (Penang has a high concentration of ethnic Chinese.) Controversy over whether to pick traditional Chinese characters or simplified Chinese characters has led authorities there set up an online poll to help resolve the matter.

The poll is here, and will be open through October 25th, in case anyone is interested in voting. My Taiwanese friend forwarded this to me, so we know where she stands on the matter.
