Moving towards sustainable initiatives


Young volunteers clearing and picking up rubbish in the Batu Caves temple compound during last year’s Thaipusam.

EVERY year, tens of thousands of people participate in the Thaipusam festival, a day of prayers and penance in honour of Lord Muruga, at temples across the country.

The Sri Subramaniar temple in Batu Caves, Selangor is known to attract huge crowds with over a million visitors making their way to give offerings and prayers for the festival over several days.
