Japanese writings on cave walls
According to a report in The Star daily newspaper dated 2nd May 2019, the cave with the Japanese writings was believed to once house a temple, established by a Nichiren Shu priest. Nichiren Shu is a Buddhist school in Japan that was founded by Nichiren Daishonin that taught and practised the Lotus Sutra more than 750 years ago. These writings, in the kanji script, were discovered in 2011 by a team from the Penang Nichiren Shu Temple after an extensive nine-year search.
