TEMERLOH: When the floods hit, a neighbouring mosque and Chinese school here worked hand in hand to help more than 400 stranded flood victims in a selfless display of harmony.

Located right next to each other by the bank of Sungai Pahang, SJK(C) Khee Chee and the Abu Bakar mosque have co-existed peacefully for more than 50 years.
