The Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple of Devotion & Understanding building project at Seberang Jaya, Prai, Penang is now at the completion stage of structural finishing works. Twelve Indian artisans arrived in Malaysia on 9 August 2010 and will start work on ornamental works.
To keep building works on schedule and importantly to continue with funding ornamental, mechanical & electrical, landscaping, sound works, exhibition, etc, the temple project committee on 16 January 2010 launched the Heaven-on-Earth comprehensive and meticulously thought of gifting scheme. The participants of the scheme will certainly benefit by the mere fact for sacrificing part of their hard earned income towards developing this temple for the pleasure of Lord Sri Krishna. Partners may also make gifts on the merits of their personal birth Lagna, ruling planet or Vastu and which corresponds to the respective gift category. (refer to table).
