Their website was launched in 2019 with the help of Mr Selvam’s son and the move has greatly improved their business.

It was a place for refuge and comfort to him\, and he eventually became the temple committee member in 1989 and currently manages the temple’s finance and community cultural programmes\, such as being a part of My Community Festival 2021. \n  \nHis vision for the temple is to emulate the rituals and practices of Tirumala Temple in Andhra Pradesh\, India\, so that devotees in Singapore do not have to travel all the way there for religious needs. \n  \nAbout Sri Srinivas Perumal Temple \nLocated on Serangoon Road\, the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple is a National Monument with a history dating back to the 1850s. The temple is dedicated to the worship of South Indian deity Perumal or Thirumal\, a form of Vishnu\, and is run by a group of about 20 volunteers.

It was a place for refuge and comfort to him\, and he eventually became the temple committee member in 1989 and currently manages the temple’s finance and community cultural programmes\, such as being a part of My Community Festival 2021. \n  \nHis vision for the temple is to emulate the rituals and practices of Tirumala Temple in Andhra Pradesh\, India\, so that devotees in Singapore do not have to travel all the way there for religious needs. \n  \nAbout Sri Srinivas Perumal Temple \nLocated on Serangoon Road\, the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple is a National Monument with a history dating back to the 1850s. The temple is dedicated to the worship of South Indian deity Perumal or Thirumal\, a form of Vishnu\, and is run by a group of about 20 volunteers. Important occasions for the temple include the Purattasi Sani\, Thaipusam and the fire walking ceremony. During the Purattasi Sani\, the temple receives more than 24\,000 devotees every weekend.

SUMMARY:Intercultural Seminar Series | Shaping Cultures and Minds in Early Singapore: Tamil Muslims and Malay Publishing
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that some of the earliest Tamil books and newspapers in Singapore were published by the Tamil Muslim community here? What’s more fascinating is that the same community was instrumental in early Malay publishing in Singapore! Interested to know more about how the Tamil Muslim publishers and the Malay literati interacted and worked together? \n  \nCome join us in a specially curated seminar which will delve deep into this little-known subject.  \n  \nSynopsis: \nEarly Singapore was marked by rapid economic enterprises by different communities that contributed to the multicultural life. Despite the enclaves of ethnic settlements under the Raffles Town Plan of 1828\, there were a lot more intercultural engagements among communities along the Singapore River to Telok Ayer and stretching to the Kallang River. The Kampong Glam area was particularly interesting. Besides being an economic node in early Singapore\, it was also the intellectual hub of the Malays. Publishing houses played a significant role in the transmission of ideas and knowledge for the region. What is less known is the contributions of Tamil Muslims in the literary translation and publishing scene. This seminar will discuss the interactions between Tamil Muslim literati and Malay publishing houses in the Kampong Glam area. \n  \nPresenters \n  \nDr Torsten Tschacher \nDr. Torsten Tschacher has long been involved in researching Tamil Muslims in Singapore. He is currently associated with the Berlin Graduate School Muslim Cultures and Societies. His research focuses on the history and textual traditions of Tamil-speaking Muslim societies in South India\, Sri Lanka\, Singapore\, and Malaysia. His is the author of the book Race\, Religion\, and the ‘Indian Muslim’ Predicament in Singapore. He co-edited a collection entitled Non-Shia Practices of Muḥarram in South Asia and the Diaspora: Beyond Mourning.

Flowers are a necessity in many Hindu rituals: as part of traditional clothing\, tributes to gods\, festive decorations\, and even medicine. For instance\, during weddings\, the bride makes her entrance beneath a flower canopy called the phoolon ki chaadar. It is typically decorated with bright red flowers to symbolise purity\, protection\, and bravery. \n  \nAnushia Flower Shop is also a pioneer in its field where they are the first garland maker in Singapore to digitalise their business. Their website was launched in 2019 with the help of Mr Selvam’s son and the move has greatly improved their business.

SUMMARY:Cuba Gula-Gula Saya: Traditional Indian Sweets with Radhika
DESCRIPTION:From the melt-in-your-mouth Gulab Jamun to the fragrant pudding-like Carrot Halwa\, there are a myriad of textures\, flavours and scents in the world of traditional Indian sweets! Join homemaker Radhika who will be sharing her recipes for the Gulab Jamun and Carrot Halwa over two sessions! Hear from the cook herself about her culinary heritage and the joys of making these traditional Indian sweets from home! \n  \nLanguage: English \n  \nFees: S$20 (excluding eventbrite service fee) \n  \nMeeting Point: Entrance of Bukit Panjang Community Club (8 Pending Road Singapore 678295) \n  \nInstructions: \n\nDress comfortably. Masks are mandatory.\nThis is a vegetarian\, non-Halal dish. Recipe contains dairy\, gluten and nuts. Participants are reminded to declare their food allergies\, if any\, in the registration form.\nParticipants must abide by the house rules set out by the host (eg. out-of-bound areas\, use of toilet).

As she is equipped with those skills from a young age\, she is very particular about handmaking Indian sweets at home. \n  \nAt home\, she can control the ingredient proportions and pick quality ingredients. Different proportions of jaggery (raw sugar)\, ghee and milk result in different textures and flavours so making them at home allows her to tailor the sweets to her loved ones’ preferences! When she puts in all this love and care into her sweets and see the smiles on the faces of friends and family\, that sense of satisfaction is the sweetest thing to her.
