Summary

On “Religion Hill” was a Catholic Church, serviced by Fr Surmon, a French missionary working in Malaysia and resident in Kota Bahru. At various times there were Vietnamese priests and seminarians, and ex-pat priests. The Catholic community in Kuala Trengganu was a bit jealous of the surfeit of priests on the island and the relative scarcity on the mainland. Sharing the hill was a Buddhist Temple and a Protestant Christian Church. As well as these was a small number of Cao Dai adherents.
