Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

Better finish my CNY 2020 Batam trip post before making the following ones,hehehe...temple visits repeats during then.


Notice its all quiet during this visit?

I lighted up the spiral incense (100k rupiah each roll or pack) in my parent's name. In hope they can live a longer good life...


Took one of the above, to go to the altar to pray 1st...


...before asking one of the caretaker guy light it up.

Note that money is NOT given to any person there but is slot-ed into the donation box meant for the respective temple.


And then one of the the caretaker will hung it up.


...it will look something like the photo below after its been hung.


It will continue to burn for dont know how long. But well...i didnt ask becos i chose not to know.

This temple is a little under-visit. I have future plans to bring many more aunties and uncles to this temple.

And to the other one too.


Not too far away from each other tho,hehehe...of course, i didnt forget the God of Wealth temple as well. Its also not far away.

Next year 2021 when i am in these temples again, they will yet have another fresher outlook (most were still under some sort of renovation/renewal currently).

I am cutting down my frequency on bringing people to Tiban Tua Pek Kong (水口大伯公), Windsor Tua Pek Kong and Maha Vihara Duta Maitreya Buddhist temple becos they were "well-to-do" enough popular temples in Batam and most if not all people would know how to go there on their own already,hehehe...my donating rupiah, along with those from uncles and aunties would be of lesser value.

(Note : Its a free will donation without obligation to those respective temples)

Just a little tiny bits of "good" i am doing along with my Batam trips (and above were done during CNY2020).
