Chinese, Hindu groups oppose proposed location of crematorium in Ampang Jaya

Ampang/Ulu Klang Chinese Cemetery Association says a 100-year-old shrine will have to be demolished to build a crematorium at this cemetery.

STAKEHOLDERS concerned about a crematorium project in Ampang Jaya, Selangor, are questioning if it meets building guidelines. They also urge the local council to reconsider the proposal.

They claim that the project mooted by Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ) to be sited at Jalan Kolam Air Lama, off Jalan Kerja Ayer Lama, was not suitable and could adversely affect the operations of two burial grounds there.
