There's an empty plot of land owned by some rich guy, so he is building a temple in-between a row of houses in a residential neighbourhood.

Is this allowed?

No. Religious buildings need proper zoning. Need to be built on land designated for religious purposes

You should report them to your town board

Depends in residential mgmt. Old taman, neighbourhood around 30 years n above, nobody care.

In fengshui, not good for houses near a temple. Temples should be far away in remote places. Many ppl visiting the temple also inconvenient the neighbours

apparently, someone in the neighbourhood has reported but construction still continues.

But not sure if he reported to the right authorities

maybe already got pbt approval? :X

Maybe report to those fb groups that like viral illegal temples

Last time can even find churchs among houses. something like Assunta church. But that was long time ago. Many places does not allow anymore.

report to majilis, newspapers and must viral a video...then maybe something will be done.

no.....tu bukan jalan bapak dia......lipot to your penbandaran

Cannot
The rule was add up in past around 10 years if not mistaken

Residential area cannot be religious center
Else u will see lots of altars , shrine , loudspeaker will emerge

Report to local council
Viral it in TikTok for faster response

Actually some of the churches you see in housing areas are actual legal.
I know a few that are on religious land but they look like a house

The first right approach is to to visit the majlis tempatan for clarification.

If there is no record of a planning approval, then is considered illegal structure.

Since religious matters are sensitive, best your approach the adun or mp to resolve the matter.

which area are you staying and under which local council jurisdiction?

nearby my place also got one, just freshly painted from white to bright Mcdonalds color as well, the old pudu jail wall looks way better than them.

Those connected house behind worth millions, kecian those fellas.


some local councils are very responsive, some are retarded. good luck to you.

Are you sure? The one waking ppl up early morning how?

Generally religious building need to be on allocated lot (usually not in-between houses), can verify with Majlis Perbandaran & also involve your ADUN cos it might turn to messy dispute.

my old hometown.. got neighbour, 2 terrace house with partial temple layout.

same like this corner house in usj, lagi encroached extra land lagi, build own building on top of it. happened many years, dunno how much he _______, suddenly mbsj came with tractor and all tear it down.

Got council approve ? Later neighbour going to complain kaw kaw

Forgot this TS, maybe can give a try, dont ask me how i know

usually not allowed to build

got one time my gf's housing area someone built his house almost look like a Chinese temple for public use, neighbors had to collect signatures and give it to local Majlis Bandaraya (MB) to protest about it. The guy that newly built it "claimed" that it's only for personal use but there will be certain days that different cars will come in and visit, and it's not just one or two cars. Now it's still there, whether the local MB really close one eye or not then dunno la

If you got the time, report to your local MB about it and discuss with neighbors as well, hope for the construction to put in halt before it really gets to the point of no return
