The Burmese Buddhist Temple (also known as Maha Sasana Ramsi; (ビルマ語:သာသနာ့ရံသီ မြန်မာဘုရားကျောင်း); ) is the oldest Theravada institution and the only Burmese Buddhist temple of its kind in Singapore.〔Ong, "Founding of Theravada Institutions", pp. 57—58.〕 Founded in 1875, the temple moved from its original Kinta Road premises to Tai Gin Road in Novena in 1988. The temple houses the largest pure white marble statue of the Buddha outside Myanmar, and has become a religious landmark for Burmese and Singaporean devotees to make merit and take part in merit-sharing activities alike. ==History== The Burmese Buddhist Temple (BBT) was founded by a Burmese man named U Thar Hnin, also known as Tang Sooay Chin, at 17 Kinta Road (off Serangoon Road) in 1875. In 1878, U Thar Hnin donated the temple to U Kyaw Gaung (also known as Khoo Teogou), a traditional Burmese physician. The temple houses the largest pure white marble statue of the Buddha outside of Myanmar. It is also the only Burmese Buddhist temple built outside of Myanmar in the traditional Burmese architectural style.〔Information obtained from a plaque at the temple erected by the National Heritage Board of Singapore.〕
