THE Thean Hou temple in Kuala Lumpur is set to host the China-Malaysia Mazu Cultural Exchange activities, which will see a 1.8m statue of the Mazu goddess arriving at the temple grounds on July 1.
The Selangor and Federal Territory Hainan Association president Dr C.Y Tang said the inaugural South-East Asia tour is organised by the Mazu ancestral temple in Meizhou, China, and marks Mazu’s “revisit” of the Maritime Silk Road, whereby Malaysia will be the first station for the cultural exchange.
