A new bishop was consecrated in a service attended by nearly a
thousand people at the St Marys Cathedral here yesterday.
Canon Ng Moon Hing, 52, was blessed and installed as the fourth
Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of West Malaysia at a service which
was also attended by the Archbishop of South-East Asia, Dr John
Chew, and the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams.
The main consecrator was Dr Chew, who performed the blessing.
When asked about his elevation, the media-shy Ng just smiled.
Dr Williams said: I am confident the new bishop will be a great
one. I am sure he will carry out his duties well, just like his
predecessors. We are very happy for him.
Ng, the vicar of St Peters Church in Ipoh, succeeds Tan Sri Dr Lim
Cheng Ean, who recently retired as Bishop of West Malaysia.
