Penang provides avenue for religious houses seeking to reopen

Non-Muslim religious organisations in Penang looking to reopen their houses of worship can apply through their respective religious representatives or through the office of state executive councillor Chong Eng.

Chong, who oversees the portfolio for religions other than Islam, told non-Muslim religious leaders to do so following the announcement by Defence Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob that the government has agreed to reopen 174 religious sites on June 10.
