The Chairman of the Teo Chew Klan/Association, Mr Chua Hiong Kee , told me that one of the Oldest Tomb belonged to his Klan is found in Pulau Kerto , Sibu which the Teo Chews had first settled in Sibu. This is the only documented with the proof of the Structure of the Tomb and the inscriptions on the tablet.. According to Mr. Chua that there are a few tomb earlier than this tomb were swept away due to the erosion of the river bank and this Tomb was constructed in the early Year 1800. Confirmation received from Mr. Tan (Secretary of the Teo Chew Association) that the actual year is 1806. Thank you, Mr. Tan.
