About Leong See Kah Miew
Leong See Kah Miew was founded by people surnamed Leong (or Liang in Mandarin), who hailed from Guangdong. The clan association was established in 18711. Six years later, one of its prominent members, Liang Ya Zhong, donated the plot on Muntri Street to the association. The clansmen then rallied amont themselves and managed to raise Straits Dollars $1,549 for the construction of their clan temple.
The old clan temple on Muntri Street was used until 1966, when it was decided that the building has become too run down for repair. The clan then held another fund raising. They managed to raise M$30,000 which went to the purchase of the present 10,494 sqft plot on Perak Road. The Perak Road premises was completed in 1995 and officially opened in 2000.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
