SHAH ALAM: Selangor Mentri Besar Amirudin Shari has vowed to find a solution to the issues revolving around the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple. The temple, which is more than a century old, is locked in a battle between the management committee and the developer that owns the land it stands on. The owner wants the land for development while the temple’s management committee and its devotees want the place of worship to remain at its current location. In a press conference yesterday, Amirudin gave his word that the state will help both the developer and the temple management committee arrive at an amicable solution. “The Selangor state government has ruled out acquiring the land as it will incur huge financial implications to the taxpayer and set a bad precedent for future cases,” he added.
