The Malaysia Hindu Sangam (MHS) has proposed a digital registration system to simplify and centralize the management of Hindu temples across the country. The proposal was outlined in a memorandum submitted to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s office following a town hall session held yesterday.

MHS Secretary S. Vinayagamurthi said the proposed system aims to address administrative challenges faced by temple committees by ensuring the systematic collection and management of accurate temple data.

“We have gathered input directly from temple committees nationwide, and the issues they face are consistent, ranging from unclear land status to difficulties in obtaining financial support,” Vinayagamurthi said during a press conference held after the seven-hour meeting, which drew more than 800 participants from various states.

The digital system is expected to be a centralized platform to log essential information such as temple location, land ownership, committee structures and operational status. According to MHS, having this data in one place will not only streamline registration but also pave the way for more efficient aid distribution and dispute resolution.

In addition to the digital registry, the memorandum also called for the establishment of a dedicated Hindu temple regulatory and registration body. This body, proposed to be jointly chaired by MHS and prominent Hindu NGOs, would oversee all temple related administrative matters, including conflicts and internal governance.

“This initiative is aimed at achieving long term solutions for land ownership and temple management issues. With proper oversight, we can avoid future disputes such as the recent relocation of the Dewi Sri Pathrakaliamman temple in Kuala Lumpur”, said Vinayagamurthi referring to the temple’s controversy.

Vinayamurthi stressed that formalising temple administration through this and proper regulation would allow the government to channel financial assistance more smoothly and transparently to Hindu temples in need.

“This is not just about registration. It’s about empowering temple committees and ensuring the preservation and respectful management of our places of worship, “ he said.

The Malaysia Hindu Sangam now awaits feedback and action from the Prime Minister’s Office with hopes that this initiative will gain official backing in the future.
