what is the justification for price hike?
burn only, no need to acquire new land or material

scam

inb4, bakar sendiri
inb4, pembakaran terbuka
inb4, kena lipot, body kena sita lol

100 is too cheap to be honest.
But kasi la breakdown of cost y need the increase.

100 is not the funeral
100 is JUST the cremation itself....JUST turning your body into dust...literally just that

1300 is reasonable? rclxub.gif

Muslim practise wakaf (donation) for land burial
So the cemetery land you see is wakaf by some other muslim. Some also wakaf the hearse and the grave digger salary etc

We also pay ‘khairat’ kematian fund where the collection fund from the community pays for the burial process

All this due to muslim practise of not monetising death into an industry

Maybe other nons can adopt this practise also

it's not so much about the money
it's every bit about the land

when land is getting scarcer that even living person is hard to live...they want a free piece of land for burial from gov
this is happening all around the world, here will be soon

which is why others moved on to cremation, they understand what the problem is and they came out with a solution
which is to step outside of tradition

U need to consider the cremation facilities cost and services to pack your ashes.
U can cremate with 100 only? Possible lower if u do it backyard of your house like open burning trashes.

u need to read the whole news bro
it's DBKL...subsidized
it's already mention there, at RM1.3k...it's more expensive than private crematoriums

so if you're more expensive than private...thn where did they get the numbers from? laugh.gif

it's the same like saying KKM is more expensive than Gleneagles laugh.gif

If RM1300 feels expensive, i have a cheaper suggestion. Use own car, send to any nearby beaches / resorts, dump into the sea.

some people didn't read
RM1.3k is just the cremation service...not the urn or the place to put it

just burning your body to ashes...that's all
not everything for RM100/RM1.3k
