There are currently two types of columbaria in which you can store the remains of your loved ones: private or public columbaria. Mandai and Choa Chu Kang columbaria are the two most common public columbaria. While public columbariums are more affordable, the investment in a private columbarium can provide a more tailored and meaningful memorial space.
目前,您可以将亲人的遗体存放于两种类型的骨灰堂:私人或公共骨灰堂。大多数人现在会听说过万礼和蔡厝港骨灰堂,这些被认为是公共骨灰堂。虽然公共骨灰堂更实惠,但投资私人骨灰堂可以提供更定制化和有意义的纪念空间。

Here are some reasons families might choose a private columbarium despite the higher cost:
以下是家庭可能选择私人骨灰堂而不是公共骨灰堂的原因:
Peace and Tranquility 平静与安宁
Many private columbaria usually put a lot of effort into their interior design. Having a peaceful and serene atmosphere helps as the atmosphere is less eerie and sombre, which also helps reduce the stigma surrounding death.
许多私人骨灰堂通常在室内设计上投入大量精力。拥有一个平静祥和的氛围有助于减少死亡周围的污名,因为氛围不那么阴森和沉重。

Additional Services 附加服务
The younger generation has become less familiar with religious practices, including prayer. This is how private columbaria can come into the picture to assist families with religious rituals, such as prayers for ancestors during significant events like death anniversaries or Qing Ming, this service cannot be fulfilled at the public columbaria themselves and family members need to drop by to pray and prepare for the festival praying items depending on the specific festival and cultural traditions.
年轻一代对宗教习俗,包括祈祷,变得越来越陌生。这就是私人骨灰堂可以介入协助家庭进行宗教仪式的方式,例如在重要事件如死亡周年或清明节期间为祖先祈祷,这种服务无法在公共骨灰堂本身实现,家庭成员需要亲自前往祈祷并根据具体节日和文化传统准备祭祀物品。

While the initial investment may be higher, families often view a private columbarium as a worthwhile investment to honour their loved ones in a special and meaningful way.
Do you know? Public columbaria does not allow families to prepurchase niches? This meant that you cannot have the freedom to choose your final resting place. Whereas a private columbarium allows you to pick your desired spot during pre-planning.
Increasingly, many individuals are looking into pre-planning; you can always preplan and purchase niches in advance to have peace of mind and select your desired final resting place.
