Tan Gong Xian Sheng Miao-Mantin / 譚公仙聖廟-文丁

Tan Gong Xian Sheng Miao-Mantin / 譚公仙聖廟-文丁.

aka TOKONG CINA THAM KOONG MANTIN

Location:- Mantin, Negeri Sembilan / 文丁, 森美兰州.

Three years ago, I made a visit to this small town to document this century old temple after receiving news that it could be demolished due to developments. It was unfortunate back then that the temple was closed upon our arrival. I was only able to capture photos of its exterior with no further information back then.

Today, after a short coffee with a friend, we decided to make a trip here to complete this unfinished business with the hope that this temple would still be around when we arrive. We were quite lucky to reach here in time. The caretaker was about to close for the day upon our arrival but she was good enough to let me finish up documenting this temple.

Standing at the courtyard, comparing my thoughts of my last visit, i notice the exterior has been refurbish. I clearly remember that the stone lions guarding the temple was green in colour and true enough, the caretaker explain that its committee had refurbish the temple about two years ago as the old structure is quite deterioted after many years of serving the community. It now has an open porch, new paints and roofing. It was great that they managed to retain much of its original structure after refurbishment.

It is not known of the exact date this temple has existed but a metal plaque in the temple inscribed with a date Guang Xu Twenty Eight years is used as reference. Majority of the chinese settlers here are of Hakka descent from Huizhou, China. Many were enticed by the british to work here as coolies and tin miners in the mids 19 century. This would suggest that the temple could be here earlier than the reference date as the chinese is known to bring along their cultural and religious belief to wherever they go. This antique plaque can be found hanging next to the drum inside the temple. By the way, Guang Xu Twenty Eight years is converted to 1902.

This temple consist of two prayer hall. In the main prayer hall, the center altar is dedicated to their main patron deity, Tan Gong / 譚公 known here as Tan Gong Xian Sheng / 譚公仙聖 . The altar to the left is dedicated to Goddess Guan Yin Pu Sa / 觀音菩薩 and the altar to the right is dedicated to Hua Guang Da Di / 華光大帝 along with the yearly deity, Lord Tai Sui / 太歲. Many other deities is also inshrined in this main hall. Among them includes Guan Sheng Da Di / 關聖大帝, Zhao Gong Ming / 趙公明 known here as Xuan Tan Ye Ye Shen / 玄壇爺爺神 , Da Er Bo Ye / 大二伯爺, Hu Ye / 虎爺, Tu Di Gong / 土地公, Tu Di Po / 土地婆, Cai Shen Ye / 財神爺, etc.

On the side section, the second prayer hall has a huge altar mainly dedicated to deities of buddhism and on its courtyard, a shrine is built dedicated to the worship of its tutelary deity, Na Du Gong / 嗱督公.

I was guided to a section of the temple where a few classic black and white photos found by the wall. On one of these photos, as I was told by the caretaker, Madam Lim, was captured on the opening after its renovation a few decades ago. There isn’t any date on the photo but the print suggest it could be in the 60s.

According to a leaflet pasted on the infomation board, during its founding days, proceeds from the temple would be given to the cause of education. This temple was the primary funder of a chinese elementary school, also a century old, located a stone throw away. It is also known that they have contributed to other cultural mission.

Today, it’s is still very fortunate that we could still see the hills in front of this temple. As developments looms, it could be posible that this beautiful view would be taken away or maybe even worse, this old temple may be gone altogether.

Kapitan Chung Thye Phin Memorial / 甲必丹 鄭大平墓園

Kapitan Chung Thye Phin Memorial / 甲必丹鄭大平墓園

For a short, day trip, the visit to this tomb was a pleasant one. Things were running smooth that we found the tomb in less than 5 minutes upon our arrival. The weather was good with the cloudy skies shading the hot sun. Cool breeze were also blowing as it were raining on other parts of the states. As a person who believes in signs of the surrounding nature, I would consider this to be superbly smooth trip with no obstacles. And indeed it was.

It did took me awhile to visit this tomb even though its location was revealed to me many months back by a member of his descendants. The Kapitan’s descendants wishes to keep the location private due to act of desecration previously to the tomb so kindly don’t email me for its location.

THE TOMB.

This tomb, measuring approximately 94.6 ft in width and 87.6 ft in length is located in a family plot. It sits slightly below off the top of a hill with the headstone facing 82º East looking toward the grave of other Chung family members.

There is only two individual laid to rest in this large tomb even though there is three headstone. His 1st wife, Madam Khoo Joo Bee / 邱如美 (Passed away in 1924)(*1) is interred on the grave to the Left while the centre of the tomb belongs to the Kapitan himself and grave on the right was actually reserved for his 2nd wife named Madam Lee Sau Yeng(*1) but was left empty as in later years, she converted to Christian and her remain’s was cremated. The Kapitan had 7 wives but was survived by 6 of them whom has borne him 10 sons and 7 daughters. (*2)

Uniquely, water from the top part of the tomb is drained through various hole located on top, beside the headstone. The water would travel through some internal pipes and exit at a dragon mouth at the bottom, located next to the offering table.

KAPITAN.

Kapitan Chung Thye Phin / 鄭大平 / Zheng Da Píng is the last Kapitan of Perak and British Malaya. He was born on 28 Sep 1879 in Taiping, Perak and is the fourth son of the 2nd Kapitan Cina of Perak, Kapitan Chung Keng Quee / 甲必丹鄭景貴. He passed away on 29 March 1935 in his residence at 58, Northam Road following a brief illness. At the time of his passing, he was known to be the wealthiest man in Penang.(*3)

Kapitan Chung Thye Phin Memorial / 甲必丹鄭大平墓園 05

A tin miner and revenue farmer of Hakka ancestry, he was conferred with the Kapitan Cina title on 24 March 1921. He was bestowed a Justices of the Peace, Perak in 1917(*4) and also holds many other prominent position in the society around that time.

He was a perfect example of a new breed of ethnic-Chinese Malayan capitalists. Western-educated and oriented, urbane, erudite, eloquent and elegant. He was a man of the world, literally, and is said to have travelled round the world several times.(*5)

Kapitan Chung Thye Phin Memorial / 甲必丹鄭大平墓園 06Kapitan Chung Thye Phin Memorial / 甲必丹鄭大平墓園 07

An excerpt from the book “Biographical Dictionary of Mercantile Personalities in Penang” where a section about the kapitan is researched and written by his grandson, Jeffrey Seow, states that …

“His first recorded acts of charity began at the age of 23 when he made two donations, between 1901 and 1902, totalling $750, to Sir Francis Lovell for the London School of Tropical Medicine, $250 to the Ying Jing Medical School and $587.52 towards the costs of the Wufu Shuyuan. And while he made numerous other contributions over the years, the more prominent ones included Seven States Medical School ($1,000, 1904), Singapore Chinese Girls School ($100, 1906), the Kek Lok Si Temple ($500, 1906), Wufu Shuyuan common tomb ($40, 1906), Papan Gaol (land, 1908), Canton Flood Relief ($100, 1908), Raffles College Fund ($10,000, 1919), Perak Chinese Recreation Club ($500, 1913), British Red Cross Society ($300, 1916), Yuk Choy Public School ($1,000, 1923), Victoria Green ($2,000, 1903).”(*5)

For his many philanthropic deed, he was honoured with two roads named after him. One is called Lorong Chung Thye Phin (Chung Thye Phin LANE) located in Ipoh, Perak while the other road honoured to him is named Jalan Chung Thye Phin (Chung Thye Phin ROAD) located in Taiping, also in Perak.

Chung Thye Phin had many residences in Penang, Ipoh and Taiping. Notably, i guess, which is the most famous, is the Relau Villa designed by the kapitan for a holiday home. It has a swimming pool built in the centre of this villa encircle by its rooms and corkscrew designed pillars. According to its family history, the architecture design of this villa was inspired by the artistic canals of Venice and the enchanting ponds and lakes of China. Unfortunately, the Villa now, is in dilapidated condition. Hopefully one fine day, this villa will be rebuild back into its glory days.

I have personally visited this villa many years back as it was known to be a famous paranormal haunt in the island. It was in the middle of the night and i really couldn’t find anything scary about the place beside worrying about been robbed.

Much more infomation about Kapitan Chung Thye Phin can be found on the news caption i found and attach below. There is also much info found online complied by his descendants.

THE FUNERAL.

His funeral was a grand event. It was reported in the news those days and i found some caption to it….
