LBS Group executive chairman Tan Sri Ir Lim Hock San expressed gratitude for the royal presence at the launch, emphasising the surau’s deeper purpose.
“We are truly honoured by the presence of the Sultan of Pahang, at this momentous occasion. The completion of Al-Amin surau stands as a testament to LBS’s commitment to not only developing infrastructure but also fostering unity and spiritual enrichment within the community.
