Taman OUG residents near Jalan Klang Lama urge DBKL to come clean on the five-storey project which they say could be a monastery.

KUALA LUMPUR: Residents of a Kuala Lumpur suburb are not thrilled with a new structure taking shape in their vicinity – a futuristic S-shaped five-story building with a large glass facade.

Siblings Ng Seng Giap, 61, and Ng Chiew Hong, 56, who live just behind the project, recalled how their neighbour’s house was demolished four years ago to make way for a three-storey structure on two plots of land owned by three individuals, including two Chinese nationals.What piqued their curiosity was the sight of monks at the construction place, and they began to suspect the project was for a religious structure.

Residents have also written to DBKL seeking details, saying the land should not be used for a place of worship.Seng Giap is convinced a monastery is being built. He pointed to three large pipes from the building, as well as the lack of windows on three sides.“There is nothing much to discuss. It is a residential area. They can’t do any other activity here. No way.”
