Does anyone has any opinion if a Hybrid Mall like AURORA PLACE is going to be a success in Bukit Jalil ? taking an example of IOI Boulevard and Setiawalk with the similar concept.....

Does Ho Hup has any experience in managing a mall ?

Especially after 'Pavillion 2' has completed, all the concentration will be on the bigger mall, unless AURORA has some special attraction.

Yep I do agreed with you. The doubt came about when I was at IOI Boulevard which is having a very similar design concept and size, but there is hardly any cloud when I walk into the mall and lots of empty units....

It could be a compliment to Aurora in term of getting the cloud into the area when there is a 'Pavillion 2' around, or it could also be an negative impact in term of having a choice of a much bigger mall next door for shopping, i think it purely depends on the concept of Aurora is going to have (or it depends of its Feng Shui). But having said that, I don't think HoHup is the one who control the concept/tenancy since most of the units are individually owned except for lower ground floor.

......btw, the more successful Hybrid Mall that i have seen is Sunway Giza.

Ya, wish they can be a success and make the area more ONG...

.....thinking of it, maybe they can make Aurora to be an IT mall of this area....

Then maybe can make it like Starhill, invite LV, Gucci.....

I agreed, expert in retail is a must to run a mall, otherwise will end up like many other failure example. Aurora Place and Pav 2 shouldn't fail with its kind of strategic location.

Just Being told that Aurora Sovo is fully sold out, and there will be another two blocks of building on top of Aurora Place, one block will be Wisma Ho Hup and there other block is wisma MBM (an automotive company). Ho Hup will be launching a service apartment across the road from aurora sovo, the service apartment buildings are designed to be 50 stories height !!!

Buy at lower floor lah....

haha, the indicative price now is 750 to 850, start saving bullets before Malton launch at 1000psf....

The bank appear in this brochure is not real, as i can be sure that CIMB is in very bad term with Ho Hup.

I wonder how can bank confirm on their tenancy way before the completion of the project.... strange....

I still can remember when berjaya launched The Link many years ago, all the SA kept saying many banks has confirmed their tenancy, but not even one bank has moved in years after completion, until recently only HL has a small setup there....

I heard that few months ago the remaining 30%+ was Sapu by one overseas flipper, he might have pulled out at the end....

I agreed !

many developers tend to mislead the public. As you can see from the news, they claimed to be having a Pavillion 2 in Bukit Jalil, and they told the public again a Pavillion 2 will be build in Damansara height.

There was a few agents aggressively distributing leaflet for Aurora sovo at OUG morning market today...

will there be any other shoplot launching in the area of P2 besides Malton, hohup and the earth ?

But the aurora place is not really a shoplot, it is consider as retail lot or hybrid mall, owner will suffer if hohup does not manage it well

The relatively cheap price of Aurora place is bcoz they are not a conventional shop.

ya, i think they should do ok having the location next to PV2.

There is almost 1M price difference with the same build up and levels between Aurora Place and Malton, what is the justification ?

sure will still be available....

who ever pretty lady that is, please don't talk without supporting...if you wanna sell, do it somewhere else....
