Che Sui Khor Moral Uplifting Society

Wow, a religious mouthful. Come one, come all creeds and join in divine celebration at this Kota Kinabalu, Borneo institution. The society embraces all faiths and cherry picks what it deems the highlights of Islam, Taoism, Buddhism and Christianity. Despite the wide inclusion of religions, aesthetically, the complex leans Chinese temple tropes.

The highlight, a 12-story pagoda.


Inside the main hall, it's business as usual, stuffing packages of prayer offerings. Some light reading on the rack.

The memorial hall. Golden.


A couple of details: Sparkly Buddha and an elaborate, exotic downspout sort of flower sculpture on a retaining wall.

Buddha to infinity.
