GEORGE TOWN: What was supposed to be a 13- to 14-hour procession over a 6.5km route took a gruelling 22 hours when a second chariot joined this year’s Thaipusam procession leaving many devotees fuming at the long wait.
The gold and silver chariots rolled out at 5.10am and 7.10am respectively on Wednesday from the heritage enclave and only reached their temples in Jalan Kebun Bunga at 3am and 3.30am on Thursday.
