Nirwana Memorial Park, beautifully designed and with good feng shui

On March 20, 2008, after the visit to Nilai Memorial Park, we drove down to Semenyih to inspect the feng shui of Nirwana Memorial Park.

It was started out as the 50-acre Nirwana Memorial Park, now has grown 10 times in size. Datuk Dr Kong Hon Kong, the managing director, has implemented the same concept in three other memorial parks in Sabah, Sarawak and in Kulai, Johor under the NV Multi Group banner, which has achieved AA1 rating from Rating Agency Malaysia.







There is a river surrounding the Nirwana Memorial park which is supposed to be good feng shui.








We spend a few hours at the Nirwana Memorial Park and found that there are still many plots of land with good feng shui. Where are these plots? Of course, we have already recorded them down in our note book.







If you are rich and if you love your pet so much, you can also find a plot of land to bury your pet.






It is always a good idea to ask for the services of a good feng shui master to do the land selection for you since you probably cannot decide which plot.

When you visit the beautifully designed Nirwana Memorial Park, you need to know the person behind this great work. Kong, 50, who began the business of providing integrated bereavement services in the country 14 years ago, runs his ship like any other corporate company. This attitude, coupled with the company’s performance, is one of the main factors that enabled it to be listed on the main board of the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange( now Bursa Malaysia) four years ago. It is the only listed integrated bereavement care provider in the whole of Asia.

Kong’s climb to prosperity has been a long, hard one that began in the town of Kuala Lipis in Pahang. It’s a story about determination, perseverance and enterprise, which eventually led to the setting up of the country’s largest and most renowned memorial park for the departed.

Look at the view.



I have not met Kong personally but I have heard his success story from so many people.


It is still a taboo for many people to visit memorial parks except for feng shui masters or the feng shui enthusiasts.

A visit to Nilai Memorial Park

We were in Nilai Memorial Park on March 20, 2008. This is one of earlier and the most beautiful memorial park in Malaysia.





You may want to ask whether the feng shui is good or bad?

If you are a feng shui enthusiast, you would know that we would not be answering this question by saying yes or no. It will be in relation to the plot of land you selected. Feng shui is very individual. You will have to tell us which ploy you selected then we will tell you whether it is good for you or not. Since you will be spending a few thousand ringgit to buy a plot of land, you might as well spend some money to do the selection. Feng shui is about location, timing and you.












Nilai Memorial Park is situated just 30 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur. It is surrounded by lush natural greenery, the Park successfully combines the best of oriental traditions and architecture with western planning and design.











When I was a journalist, the founder, the late Dato Choo Ching Hwa, used to tell the media about his dream to build a memorial park. He and his team have visited many memorial parks all over the world. He told us about his experience in Philippine. He said the Chinese there like to play majong in their ancestors’ tombs where the tombs were beautiful designed.

Nilai Memorial Park is Dato Choo’s dream and it is his dream comes true.

When I met Dato Choo, he was MCA’s treasurer general.
