What is the current Market rental for the ground floor and 1st floor retail shop? Facing inside.

Indeed Serdang Raya is not a bad location, quite convenience to go else where, but the name "Seri Kembangan" is the killing part, if one dun mind the name, can choose to stay in Bukit Serdang also, easy access from Sg-Puchong link.

I stay in Puchong for 6 years.
So far, the traffic is still ok, not very congested like what u said.
In KV, everywhere is jammed during the peak hour la.

If you ask me to vote, Puchong > SK. Both also jam but at least Puchong has a more vibrant feel. SK is like a tired town

ok enough of puchong jam... puchong jam topic can be discuss here where Stimix will sure not happy to hear that...hahahahahha

Well, I would say there are still many ways in and out from Puchong.
If u r familiar with Puchong, u won't say it.
I doubt that u had stayed in Puchong before.

Agree. I have been to Puchong countless time though I don't stay there. But I have only been to SK once in my life.

well..cant expect everybody to like puchong.. for me puchong is getting better..everything u can get and more to come am sure

hahaha....

Oh I see...you are one sided

Look like my opinion much better. I don't live in Puchong nor SK. So I am not bias toward puchong nor sk

Frankly say Puchong township planning is terrible, I stay in Puchong since 1998, the LDP design is horrible, from the beginning it shd be planned properly, the flyover at the Puchong Jaya cross junction, the U-turning in front Neway, the U-turning in front Tesco and Pusat Bdr Puchong, bottle neck exit at Bdr Puteri and road diversion to USJ & Putrajaya can be foreseen at the beginning.
The worst part is no highway which connect Kinrara-Puchong-Subang Jaya directly, it was proposed bout 15 years ago when I saw in an old map that showing expressway connect fr The mines-Puncak Jalil-Ayer Hitam Forest-Kinrara BK5 Sentosa-Wawasan-Lake Edge-Subang Jaya (near Court 10), I think due to insufficient fund or corruption (most likely), the said project didn't materialized.
SKIP however provides an alternative for Putra Permai/Puncak Jalil/Bdr Kinrara folks to travel to PJ or Seremban freely bypass LDP.
An elevated LDP is the complete solution to ease Puchong jam, New LRT can't help much as I dun see our city bus services is so efficient.

In summary, I think Puchong is falling into the same league with Subang and Sunway. Seri Kembangan (excluding Putra Permai) is just a very mature township like Kajang and Sg Besi. The background of both Puchong & Seri Kembangan are a lot different.
I stayed in Seri Kembangan (Bkt Serdang) fr. 1995-1998. Nothing much we can expect fr it except food.

I agree that Puchong traffic need improvement but last weekend I went to SK, I was horrified to the maximum that the traffic was incredibly bad. Huge jam at supposedly non-peak hour due to car from SK driving down to LDP or 16 Sierra side.

That's why when I critic which means got rooms for improvement. SK "town" can't do much anymore.
Lucky SILK & Sg Besi Highway help a bit to ease some congestion, the small link fr South City to Sg Besi - Puchong highway does help a bit, that's all.
I heard rumor that the Singapore group Capital Land who took over The Mines Shopping Mall a few years ago is looking for buyer now, my fren is running an IT shop and he says the buying power in this area is relatively lower compared to BJ / Puchong. This is the kep point to determine whether a township is sustainable or not.

The more vibrant part of SK is not the Mines side. I think the more vibrant part of SK has now gone to Jusco side nearing to the LDP highway. Lots of development going on now. And more to come. I am really surprised that there are so many new development there.

Puchong's jam was caused by building the LRT ....BTW all of Klang Valley is jam

May be because you dun know the Jalan. Now got back door too ma.

I think Cyberjaya will be good for you to stay at the moment because it sure no jam.

Got a feel like in the Curve? sure hope it will be as successful! Getting warmer now...

Too hot for Malaysia wheatear to have this style of shopping. Will be good after evening. It will be more vibrant to have also fashion cat walk along side the water features. Such promo activities will even draw more crowd.
Fashion type of business need this kind of introduction. Not a bunch of things hanging up like pasar malam.

Yes, majority people will not like to walk under afternoon sun, but there are people who don't mind too Pity those hardworking stall owners though, hehe. I think this will be good to create some afternoon weekend crowd. Coupled with TGV which is target to open end of this month... The layout @SW is ideal for many types of events, it's just a matter of time for these to sprout out. Catwalks, live bands, performances, etc etc..

Good job! SW is creating threat to the surrounding old shoplot now, I can IOI Boulevard operators feel the pressure too!

SW have to create "happenings" based on the latest trends to attract human traffic that not only benefit the business owners but residents. The attraction must be great to have a crowd-pull factor that pull crowds from the neighboring shops. SW copes the tropical heat by having water features & shop owners should have moisturizer fans that spray mist to create cool air. SW should plant anti-mosquitoes plants to drive away the pests. With all these in mind....living, working, relaxing & entertaining in SW will be highly desirable. With the beautiful landscape...lots of events, activities & festive season can be enjoyed. It would look romantic by having the mid-autumn festival there this year...with nice lanterns hanging on trees...bright full moon & nice classical music.
