Dear Residents,
Today is a special day for our Buddhist brothers and sisters in our 'kampong', as they take time off to join millions around the world to celebrate and pay respect to the Lord Buddha on his birthday, his attainment of enlightenment as well as to commemorate his death.
This is also the time to spread good virtues and values amongst one family, neighbours and country as taught by Lord Buddha. Such values which will keep us together and to live in harmony.
Like all other religions, Buddhism teaches one to be compassionate to another fellow human being and to do good to others.
In Malaysia, because of the many diverse cultures where religions are practised in our own diverse ways, we also come together to celebrate our common values. And today is no different and that makes us truly special!
The Committee would like to take this opportunity to wish all our Buddhist residents Happy Wesak Day!
