I cannot recall the details, but I believe the Swastika symbol had a noble/ honourable meaning for a long time before the Nazi's swiped it.

You are both correct. I actually took some photos in the Temple, but do you think I can find them. There is also a building in Georgetown Penang with a band of reversed swastika accross it, I think it was a Chinese medical place. I also saw them on a Chenese swimming pool.

Cheers
