It was a great article written in Malaysian Nanban. You may read the news published on 14 August. The temples were built for people around the area or community. A particular individual, family or groups cannot be running the temple on their own way.
2 wrongs doesn't make 1 right. just because, your grandfather or father was one of the one mooted to build the temple (not that they built it as they were not the civil engineers or technicians), doesn't mean that the entire generation of them can own the temple.
To make things worse, when you are the so called manager, you task is to manage, not to be bossy and giving empty promise, nor lame excuses such as I have so much things to do. If you have so much things, then delegate it.
You brag that your grandfather or father built the temple, but when people ask for a RM2 worth towel as sponsor for for a number of pax, you claimed that you don't want to create a new practise. Leaders don't simply take people's money, they give out their leadership and be humble, not being arrogant, or people say "bodoh sombong"
At Taman Tun Dr.Ismail, Naza Corporation built the mosque, but Late Naza's sons can't claim that to belongs to them. It's still managed by the resident association of the Taman, and their stakeholders are the residents. Thus, the management committee listen to the residents, and being a servant leader, rather than bragging ownership illegally.
The article came at right time...hope we have more leaders than cronies.
