Seems no further news nor discussion of the Jalil City nowadays?

frankly i do not see any proper value in this project ! Full of uncertainty ! No ?

Almost every commercial project are full of uncertainty, it is a matter the level of risk appetite one can take. It is a high risk high return game. However if you ask me, by looking at the location, selling price and concept, I must say this is the best commercial bet at this moment now.

Buy subsale, it is full of certainty

can someone pls post up some details about Aurora Place here...

Any idea when will this jalil city fully completed?

All quiet again

Desmond Lim planning Pavilion 2 here...

Looks like another good news for BJ residence. Soon this area will be a new shopping hub and happening with WCT Mall + Pavillion 2.

Both Pavillion BJ & PARADIGM OUG has same targeted rival -- MID VALLEY

I don't think pavilion 2 can sustain it in bj.

Just wonder how both the malls fared against MV later on as looking at the scale development both claims to be having at least size of MV or even bigger. Feel a bit excited with the future at this areas when everythng is completed.

Any reason for that? It could easily attract crowds from BJ, Puchong, Sri Petaling, OUG, Kuchai and along the MRR2 which is densed areas so location wise I see no reason for failure.

Pavillion at BB attracts different crowd vs Pavillion 2 in BJ. Pav BB has more overseas tourists that actually make the purchase, not merely window shoppers. If Pav 2 want to succeed in BJ, it has to target wider crowd. Otherwise will be hard to attract big branded names into this side of KL.

pavillion is branded mall name.

for surviving in bj.
1) big mall can't make it. Only community small mall still ok like jusco cheras selatan
2) in BJ , Big brand not possible. More suitable is mix tenant but mix tenant also mean non-competing shops. So can't be big. Just small.
3) small sapce rents is more negiottiable, could be just rent for 1 year contract
4) less renovation cost, offering below average rent price. compare the pavillion huge mall mean for tourist which need huge renovation cost & need longer contract and higher rental cot.

I repeat. Pavillian is big brand name. It cannot allow its brand to go lower so it have to go for huge. high class ( high rent la), don''t allow mix tenant ( tarnish its brand).

Is IOI and pyramid big or small??

I believe Desmond is more ambitios than what you suggested.

Ambitions is one things. Weather can make money is another afterall he has to answer to shareholder and his accountant will kaw kaw showing bad investment return.

Just wondering u based on what?

are you saying it because of his pavillion mall @ BB?

Do u know pavillion can make it was partly due to Qatar I A?

I also hope he can make it. But at this moment the reality is he can't due to we are not ready for another huge expensive mall in BJ with our low income.

Please share some reasons why do you think so?
