The Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry (MOTAC) has allocated RM250,000 to repair and restore the century-old Masjid Lama Machap in Melaka as an attraction for the 2024 Visit Melaka Year (TMM).

Machap Jaya assemblyman Ngwe Hee Sem said the uniquely designed mosque is gazetted under the National Heritage Act 2005 and is historically significant.
