Over 140 descendants of Muthu Ramalingam Pillai and Marimuthu Ammal gathering for the fifth time to celebrate their ancestry and strengthen ties.
DESCENDANTS of the Muthu Ramalingam Pillai-Marimuthu Ammal pioneering couple, who were recognised by Malaysia Book of Records for holding the largest family gathering in 2000, held their fifth get-together on Dec 10 in Petaling Jaya, Selangor.
In 2018, the family group, referred to as Bandham, went a step further and became an association, calling itself the Muthu Ramalingam Pillai & Marimuthu Ammal Family Association (MRP&MMAFA).
