The Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur has been transformed into a mini Chinese culture village in conjunction with Chinese New Year.

The Selangor and Federal Territory Hainan Association has organised a string of activities including paper cutting art and cultural performance for the public to have a better understanding of the Chinese culture.

Transport minister Anthony Loke who launched the temple’s lantern lighting ceremony on Thursday said RM30,000 has been allocated to the temple to support this event.
