During this year’s Hungry Ghost Month, a local artist called Kopi Soh transformed a pedestrian walkway along a section of Jalan Gurdwara (Gurdwara Road), into a charming “Hungry Ghost Festival Walk,” featuring 10 adorable, comic-style illustrations of wandering spirits and deities, along with bilingual information boards about the festival’s meaning and traditions.
The display—adorned with fairy lights, lanterns, and colorful windmills—invites viewers to step into the festival’s true spirit of compassion, remembrance, and empathy, showing that the rituals aren’t about fear, but about honoring restless souls and helping them find peace. The installation was carried out by the Menara Perdana Phor Tor Society, with blessings from a temple and a medium to ensure the sacred art offered respect, not mischief.
