More wheeling and dealing in Penang chariot battle


GEORGE TOWN: Penang’s battle of the Thaipusam chariots just got uglier. The Nattukotai Chettiars are hoping to bring forward the start of their usual silver chariot procession to the night of Feb 7 instead of the morning of Feb 8 as earlier planned.

The rival Penang Hindu Endow­ment Board’s golden chariot had been scheduled to leave early in the morning of Feb 8, ahead of the silver chariot.
