Saving the cave temples


By IVAN LOHILI AQILAH

Temporary reprieve: An eviction notice served on the 155-year-old Nam Thean Tong Cave Temple has been revoked.

IPOH: An ad hoc committee will be set up to tackle land-related issues faced by cave temples in the Kinta district, says Perak MCA chairman Datuk Dr Mah Hang Soon.

He said he would chair the committee and hold discussions with the Perak Land and Mines Department to hopefully come up with solutions for the cave temples to continue operating at their locations.
