"The 101-year old Sri Muneswarar Kaliyaman Hindu temple located at Jalan P Ramlee, off Jalan Tengah in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle business district faces the threat of demolition as it has received notice issued by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL).".[This is due to the construction of a] 30-storey office tower by Hap Seng Land,right behind the temple...The building will only be given a Certificate of Fitness (CF) if it builts an 8-feet (2.4m) walkway along the building according to City Hall requirements. [However] the developer cannot do so as the temple sits on the land on which the walkway needed to be built....When discussion with the temple to obtain the land did not reach the desired result, Hap Seng Land was prompted to bring City Hall to court. The court served an injunction to the temple and City Hall served it an eviction notice."
A court case is going on in an attempt to save the temple.
