【Our Native Land】Ancient Temple Spirit and Five-Clan Harmony

Through the mutual assistance of the five clans, the Chinese who first came to Johor Bahru have laid a unique historical tradition of the Chinese in Johor Bahru and learnt about the historical trajectory of the Chinese through the Johor Ancient Temple.

The Johor Ancient Temple is one of the cultural symbols as well as the core organisation of the Johor Bahru’s Chinese community in the early days. Back in those days, through the mutual assistance of the five clans, the Chinese who first came to Johor Bahru have laid a unique historical tradition of the Chinese. The 150-year-old Johor Ancient Temple Chingay epitomizes the development of Johor Bahru’s Chinese community. Walking through the Ancient Temple Chingay is like taking part in the common memory of Johor Bahru people and seeing their power of re-creation.
