Ng Fook Thong Temple (Tokong Ng Fook Thong / ங் பிஹூக் தாங் டெம்ப்லே /五福堂)

This is the United Cantonese District Association clan temple. Built in 1898 by Kapitan Chung Keng Kwee, this was recorded as the first Cantonese School in Malaysia. Built by craftsmen brought in from Southern China, the temple features exquisite craftsmanship and architectural features. The roof and gables are lined with porcelain figurines. There is a forecourt before the temple entrance with an inner court inside. Ancestral tablets line both sides of the main alter. Located in Chulia Street, it is worth a visit if in the area.

There are too many Penang Clubs, and you can see one when you walk. This family feeling is particularly obvious overseas and cannot forget the book. The history of the Guangfu Club has been a long time, and it is called Wufu College. It has undertaken some tasks of Chinese education and let Chinese culture grow here.

The Guangzhou House is also now a temple of the clan, built in 1898, the first Cantonese school in Malaysia. The temple is built by craftsmen from Lu Banxing, with exquisite craftsmanship and architectural features, and the roof and gables are enamel on both sides.

In Malaysia as a whole, there are about 20% of the Chinese people. Most of them come from the coastal areas of southern China. Most of them come from Fujian and Guangdong. There are also many Chinese from Guangzhou in Penang, so it is reasonable to have Guangzhou Guild Hall here.

Also called Wufu College, Malaysian Chinese education has been uninterrupted for more than 100 years, and it is due to the Chinese sages who have worked hard to strive for the right to mother tongue education. They pay and work hard to let future generations learn Chinese in a good environment. The five-hundred-study college is the best witness to this history.
