Want to Know If You’re Choosing the Best Private Cemetery? Here’s a Simple Way to Find Out
By - Jeremy G
When selecting a cemetery, private memorial parks often stand out for their superior planning, year-round maintenance, security, and after-sales services.
However, these perks come at a cost, and it's crucial to ensure that the cemetery will be maintained for generations to come.
One of the ways private cemeteries like Nirvana Asia ensure long-term upkeep is through a maintenance trust fund—in Nirvana’s case, a fund of over RM100 million. This perpetual trust fund guarantees that the cemetery will be maintained indefinitely, ensuring peace of mind for families.

What Is a Perpetual Maintenance Trust Fund?
A perpetual maintenance trust fund is designed to operate indefinitely. In simple terms, it sets aside funds to ensure that the cemetery is always maintained, even if the company managing it faces financial issues in the future.
Nirvana Asia’s fund, for example, ensures that its memorial parks remain clean, safe, and well-kept, no matter what happens.
Why a Maintenance Trust Fund Matters
-
Long-Term Maintenance: The trust guarantees that the cemetery will be cared for indefinitely—covering landscaping, cleaning, and maintenance of facilities.
-
Protection for Families: Customers purchasing burial plots or niches can be confident that their loved ones' resting places will be well-maintained, regardless of future financial conditions.
-
Prevents Neglect: Without such funds, cemeteries may face neglect over time, leading to deteriorating grounds and abandoned grave sites.

What Does This Mean for You?
For families, this means:
-
Guaranteed Maintenance: Your investment is protected, and your loved ones' final resting place will remain dignified and well-maintained.
-
No Future Costs: There’s no need to worry about future maintenance fees. Once you've made your purchase, the trust fund covers everything.
-
Preserving Legacy: The cemetery’s beauty and dignity will last for generations, ensuring that your family’s legacy is respected.
Is It Common for Private Cemetery to Have a Perpetual Maintenance Fund?
While in some countries, cemeteries are legally required to establish such funds, this is not always the case, particularly in smaller or independent Malaysian cemeteries.
Setting up a perpetual maintenance fund can be costly, and not all cemeteries have the resources to do so unless legally mandated.
Nirvana Asia, however, goes beyond legal requirements, recognising the importance of protecting its customers’ interests through a substantial RM100 million trust fund.

Why Nirvana Asia's Trust Fund Stands Out
Nirvana Asia’s commitment to maintaining its memorial parks is clear with its RM100 million trust fund.
Managed by RHB Trustees Berhad and audited by PwC, this fund provides customers with the assurance that the memorial parks will always be well-maintained.
Best of all, customers only need to make a one-time maintenance fee payment when purchasing burial plots or columbarium niches—no recurring fees or surprise charges later.
Conclusion: Peace of Mind for Generations
Choosing a cemetery is not just about price, location, or aesthetics—it’s about ensuring long-term care.
Nirvana Asia’s RM100 million maintenance trust fund offers families the assurance that their loved ones' resting places will always be respected and maintained, regardless of what the future holds.
By taking these extra steps, Nirvana Asia is ensuring that its customers' peace of mind lasts for generations.
