Talk:Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery

Guangming Shan Pujue Chan Si Temple
If following standard Mandarin pronunciation and Hanyu Pinyin romanisation, the temple should be called Guangming Shan Pujue Chan Si Temple. --Atitarev (talk) 00:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Controversy Needed
User:Linrx added controversy section without adding any relevant information, a quick search of the major news portals of the island revealed that the monastery only appeared in the news during major events such as Vesak Day, however it is a fact that this is one of the two richest Buddhist monasteries or Buddhist temples on the island. If a temple deals with that much money and yet is without any major scandal or the slightest of legal wrangle, this article is either a hoax i.e. add the hoax tag, or it is beyond me. 138.75.188.73 (talk) 09:12, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

A controversy section with no content is not a controversy to me, so I removed that section altogether. If there is relevant content, please feel free to put it back in. unkx80 (talk) 02:34, 19 April 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm reverting to a version prior to additions by User:Linrx as it seems a lot of original research and unsourced claims seems to have been added, for example, "...became popular following post-independence Singapore due to the consultation sought by then prime minister Lee Kuan Yew on matters pertaining to fengshui..."; a particular POV at "It has gradually also become a major hot pot for commercialisation since implementing a corporate office and starting a retail business Awareness Place while also accepting female monastics". --Lemongirl942 (talk) 03:29, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
