Fire at Datuk Keramat Shrine destroys shrine and fig tree

Category : news

Ria Tan (WlidSingapore) alerts us to some sad news from Pulau Ubin:
"A fire started yesterday [Sun 28 Aug 2005] at the Datuk Keramat behind the coffeeshop yesterday afternoon.
It burnt up the entre shrine as well as the poor giant fig, which eventually toppled, damaging some property."
