My father is at hospital now. Don’t think can make it these few days
Hence start to prepare for the funeral.
Already got a burial ground back in hometown. It’s a shared lot with my grandparents and uncles.

Just a matter to go through the rites and bring back to hometown.
Plan to have the funeral service in KL before, cremate and bring back the ashes to hometown

How to kickstart the whole thing? Either Taoist or Buddhist rite. Likely Taoist.

The funeral shop will approach the family?

Any tip is appreciated. Thank you

If you not doing it at nirvana, many coffin shops will have contact on this.

You only need to think to do it at home or funeral parlor.

The rite will depends on your family or your father wish. In fact, if he also knew his time is coming, you may want to ask him.

Firstly, condolences to you and your family.

Nirvana is a one stop shop. Smaller funeral parlours also have this arrangement.

Hi. Sorry to hear this. If your father can speak, best to ask him first on what he wants. Especially burial or cremation.
Next is whether you are Hokkien, Teochew, Hakka, Cantonese, etc. As some elders may want to insist on following certain customs. Clarify first, don't follow blindly.
One member pointed at ktc, a good recommendation, also one of the cheaper one. There are others like Jing An Memorial Village, etc. They can recommend undertakers (coffin and funeral arrangements).

Not necessarily la, there are cheap package and there are giler babi packages

Dont limit urself to nirvana , there are plenty of other funeral parlors who offered the same and simplified services at much lower price


Nirvana is for folks like Mahathir

nowadays, the funeral parlour such as nirvana should be able to handle everything for you.

else, contact the place where you bought the burial ground. they should be able to assist as well.
