Ho Ann Kiong Temple saga

The year of the Tiger bring a lot of story for 200 years old Ho Ann Kiong temple. On my previous post I mentioned the Temple was badly burnt and on the eve of Chinese New Year some denizen of Kuala Terengganu was begging for alms at the temple. Last Sunday, the Hokkien committee is organizing a fund-raising to fund the restoration the temple. See the news below.

Today it was reported that the political master in the State decided not to extend any financial assistance for the temple. Theses irked some of the Hokkien community.

Unlucky for the Hokkien Folks..this is not an election time. If it is, truckloads of building materials had been send to the site.
