Seen at Khoo Kongsi Temple, Penang, Malaysia!
Dear friends, I could get in touch with my Singaporean friend to ask her to help to translate, Now I received her reply and for this who liked to know the meaning of this sign I pasted and copied her original translation. :
"The right two panel is the name of the god, is layman addressing the God in the respected salutation. In Chinese people pray to many different gods. These two panel top horizontal word I think is referring to the origin of the god, meaning where it come from, mainly from places in china, but I am not too sure is this the name of the place in China. 3rd from the right “ silent”, 4th the last at left “Avoidance”, when god arrive, layman have to hide away, similar to emperor arrive, people must go hide themselves.“
Thank you very much for your help, Bee Aye!
