State government to buy land for temple?

(Sin Chew Daily) PETALING JAYA, Sept 6: "The Selangor state government is considering purchasing a plot of private land at Shah Alam's Section 23 to relocate the Hindu temple at Section 19 in order to appease the dissatisfaction of local residents."

The MP for Shah Alam, Hj Khalid Abd Samad of PAS said, the state government's previous site proposal on PKNS land was met with strong objection from local residents. As such, the state government would now consider buying a piece of private land for the purpose of building the Hindu temple.

He said the state government had agreed on the solution of acquiring private property located near a factory, adding that state government officials would inspect the site soon.

Khalid said a preliminary concept would be achieved in two to three days' time, but the prerequisite was that the site must be agreed by everyone so that events similar to last week's cow-head protest would not recur.

"Many people have offered alternative solutions. We even have the private sector offering us the land.

Khalid's action is unfounded and shows that he is not fit to lead and lacking in wisdom.
Now it may as well be that the selangor govn(PKR) starts buying lands for the chinese temples, for the churches, and for the sikh temples as well. why stop with the indians temples?? He has already built the biggest kandang babi to start with.
