In 1979, His Eminence Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche visited Singapore and with his encouragement and advice, a protem committee headed by Mr. David Chee Kim Swee was formed in preparation for the founding of Karma Kagyud Buddhist Centre in Singapore. A detached house at 17, Jalan Lateh was rented for the Centre's administration. On 17th April 1981, the Registrar of Societies approved the registration of

our Centre. In 1990, Rinpoche initiated the search for a new premises to cater for the expansion of the Centre's activities. With the encouragement from His Eminence Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche and strong support from the members and devotees, the present Centre was acquired. On 29th December, 1991, the Centre was relocated to its present premises. The premise was renovated in 1993 and has since been used as the venue for most of the Centre's activities to serve the spiritual and welfare needs of its members and devotees.

In loving remembrance of the 14th Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche, we honor a great master whose wisdom and compassion continue to guide countless beings.

He played a vital role in establishing and nurturing the Karma Kagyud Buddhist Centre, visiting often to offer guidance and blessings so that its mission of benefiting sentient beings through the Dharma could flourish.

Though he entered Parinirvana on 11 June 2014, his enlightened activity endures in his teachings, his students, and the lives he transformed.

His kindness will always be remembered and cherished in our hearts, and his blessings remain with us, illuminating our path with compassion and wisdom.
