BUTTERWORTH: Free vegetarian food is being offered at some Nine Emperor Gods temples here for those who cannot afford to pay the festive premium prices, which can cost as much as RM20 a plate.
Sungai Puyu assemblyman Phee Syn Tze said there are two temples in her constituency that are giving out free vegetarian meals during the nine-day festival.“Devotees who observe a vegetarian diet can get free food from the temples instead of buying from stalls in the locality.
