Ya dam, I live nearby but never been to SW.
Perhaps for drinking, will consider.
White elephant aikkks

So Setia Walk is failure?

Setiawalk is never a failure....read the passed comments & criticisms. Everyone painted negative comments about it, but it turned out a success. The only failure of mankind is greediness and it will always be. For those shop owners, common sense have to be applied if they want their business running. As for property agents, it's kinda of greedy and annoying always calling property owners whether they want to sell their units. Be more smart by making value-added for both tenants and landlords, rather then eyeing on commissions in a very
unprofessional way.

Forummers quite demanding n expect the shops fully open at once. But all of them doing not bad. The internal road is holding up the
cenima. More expected to open soon.

Anyway more biz sense should wait till the first batch apartment stayers come in.

Wangsa Walk was touted as failure in the beginning but now turned out quite alright actually

Are you referring and comparing to the shopping mall?

Setiawalk will never be a white elephant. Infact this place has spruced up the image of Puchong. Many propery agents are calling owners to let go their units for fast commission. Wise investors should have more holding power, without letting go their units. Owners should teamed up together to make sure that their properties are valued properly and rentals charged liberally. The water features with excellent landscape is one of the kind & Puchongites should appreciate its esthetic values...rather then b****ing about it.

TALK LESS DO MORE...get the place at least almost fill up first...when u pass by the front looks damn empty...action louder than words

Pass by this area.. I would say most shoplots are empty... Is a failure, and I promise won't go there in coming months at least... If the shoplots still empty for more than a yr, then u can say bye bye to the whole mall....

And the condos/ apartment upstairs price will sure drop.... Now the price has peak and seem going down as ni buyer at this price and nit sustainable...


Good luck for those still holding, many mire sellers after the next bolck owner VP....

I also hope by passing the area will able to pass the judgement. U need the price these guy paid last time. Unless whole market crash, they gonna stay as comfort w all

Hmm.. No one post in sky pod thread? Sell at more higher price
Give time la..

Agree. I bought 1 unit of brio and i still think that its a good investment.

Everyone blindly criticized about Mid Valley ...saying the location is in the middle of no where. But today it dumb folded many critics & turned them into fools. Action speaks louder than words are easily said to ignorant people. I guess team work of all property owners comes in to make Setiawalk a huge success. Owners must not be short-sighted & must apply win-win situations. A typical dilemma of Malaysians have to be discarded, and Setiawalk management have to also make sure things are put in order.

IMHO, SW shops surely will become better later, it's just a matter of time (2 years? 3 years?).
By the way, it can't be compared with MV, Wangsa Walk .. How can a street idea compare to shopping mall mega mall? Probably Platinum Mondrian PV 128 is what the coming days SW can refers to.

Just my 0.02 cents.

Mid-valley has all the important ingredient to be successful, located at the junction of major roads, good mix of tenants..
I am sure Setia Walk has most of the good ingredient in place to be successful but I am not sure MV is a direct comparison to this "enclose Mega Mall" vs "open Retail" concept...

Mega malls like MidValley, Sunway Pyramid and One Utama have a unique characteristic where they are not only "local shopping mall" but a Mega malls that able to attract crowds from more than 10km away.. Big Cinema, Big Anchor tenants, Big Bowling alley, huge halls and convention center to hold big events, Plenty of car park, and enclose with nice air-conditioning..

Other smaller malls like IOI Mall, Alamanda, Leisure Mall are more of local malls that only attract crowds from surrounding population.. even Setia Mall in Setia Alam likely more localized.

Setia Walk likely will be a local "retail outlets" which attracts crowd from Puchong.. If it aims to be Mega Mall Level, it has to pull out some special trick, really special mix of good tenants..

so you admit it is failure hahahha

Please DONT THROW WORDS IN MY MOUTH...
Please read my statement again... It might not be at Mega Mall status.. doesnt meant it cant be a successful local retail outlet..

Of course I am not comparing Mid Valley with Setiawalk, I am saying many ...perhaps 95% people commented nonsensically on things they don't know I.e. making sweeping statements. The emphasis here was that they condemned Mid Valley's viability, but 5% people just watched on & viola see what happens to Mid Valley now!!!

of course no doubt, I do see potential of SW but how long does it need to flourish is everyone's guess..

+1 look at cineleisure mall in mutiara damansara. small but successful. those big tenants should move in faster especially tgv cinema. coupled with lrt station, it can be successful. only time will tell when is tht going to happen coz everything moving slow
