Should be very soon now, tentative date announced earlier by TGV was August 2012. Btw, a little proud fact, apparently the beanieplex concept was the mastermind of TGV Cinemas, possibly first of its kind on the world. It was featured by this American magazine recently http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/arch...-future/261142/

This movie theater does not have, strictly speaking, movie theater seats. This theater does not feature mandibular chair bases that snap closed the minute they're relieved of their occupants. It does not feature cushions made of acrylic velour. It does not feature cup holders large enough to accommodate all four "digestive compartments" of a cow's stomach worth of soda. It does not feature armrests that ensure one will spend the duration of a film either too far from -- or way, way too close to -- one's seatmate.

Instead, this movie theater has couches. Couches that are made of bean bags.

Yes. The world is a wondrous place.

These particular movie-seat bean bags, alas, are located in Malaysia. But -- and this is only about 80 percent wishful thinking -- they could also be coming to a theater near you. Because movie prices are going up; box office gross is going down. Given Netflix and Hulu and OnDemand and iTunes and Amazon Prime and the approximately 5,000 other movie-watching options available to consumers -- on their phones, on their tablets, on their TVs, or craftily projected onto screens and walls -- theaters as environments will have to evolve. Their main selling point, of course, has long been the fact that they offer an experience rather than a film; in the age of the home theater, though -- and in the age of the mobile theater -- experience itself is no longer enough. An itchy acrylic chair can't compare, generally speaking, to one's own perfectly plump couch -- and stadium seating begins to look much less appealing when you can stream a movie onto your phone while sitting on the beach.

So theaters need to up their game. They need to find a way to make themselves not just an experience -- because, now, we can get "an experience" anywhere -- but an experience that people will choose even over their own couches. One way to do that will be to improve themselves as settings for the things theaters are often best suited for -- dates, and casual outings with friends and family -- by making themselves more inviting, more friendly, more cozy.

And one way to do that? Couches. Couches, preferably, constructed of beanbags.

SW piece of land is commercial title, therefore the serviced apartments should be under commercial rate too. However, there are many other same cases whereby the serviced apartment were successfully converted to residential rate. So, nothing is impossible.

Well, i guess it's a good lesson for TBF... probably this is a special case, as it was a weekday and the raid was carried out after 11pm. I don't know what is the time limit in Malaysia that justifies a raid for public disturbance, but as long as it is within the agreed limit, i see no cause for the residents to complaint or the police/MPSJ to raid unnecessarily. One thing for sure, who are the residents that complaint? Anyone moved into Solace already or maybe it's from the residents at the back Taman. The music so power huh, can travel so far tongue.gif

As the EC can be considered as purpose-built building, since they already planned for it to house a cinema at design stage. Therefore, there shouldn't be much prob to pass bomba inspection, as long as the emergency exits and ventilation requirements are fulfilled.

From highest to lowest if you refer to SetiaWalk. Highest, more windy. Lowest, more noisy.

Well, actually I wasn't really referring to any specific apartment. I'm just curious about how other people consider these usually less preferred apartment levels in general smile.gif

So are you saying you won't bother about the floor numbering at all?

Our preferences happen to be rather similar biggrin.gif

In order of preferences, I would rank it as follows:
13
24
14
highest floor
4
lowest floor

I see you are not really superstitious about numbers but would you rank it differently if it's for investment purpose?

I guess as long as the unit not facing the setia walk shops, pubs... it should be alright. Else it can be nightmare.

99 Mart opens one shop near to Tesco, and another one near to Giant Bandar Puteri. Both these 99 Marts are doing brisk business. What say you?

Unlike landed, number of floor dun really affect condo price, but house number does matter.
For instance, In Block A
A) Unit A-24-8 (South) - 200K
B) Unit A-18-4 (South) - 200K
Buyer will normally opt for A

This is purely based on my real experience selling condo.

To me 99 Mart is in between hypermart & 24hrs convenience store.
It is a convenience store within doorstep selling products in comparable price with hypermart, consider a modern type of kedai runcit.
I'll definately choose 99 Mart if just want to buy 1 or 2 items.
I belief 99 Mart can survive in SW

If I were the owner of 99, since I have no financial concern, I would consider opening up a flagship store in SW, with groceries and etc.

I hv the same thinking, like Cold Storage, Urbanfresh is very unique and cozy, both hv their niche customer group, unlike Giant / Tesco which is capturing 'mass' mkt segment. I dun mind to pay extra for Urbanfresh

I very like to visit Cold Storage and Urbanfresh .... More clean, looks more tempted to go in, and products nicely arrange accordingly, pay a bit higher also nvm.

1) Heat may transfer fr roof top
2) Possible exposed to rain water leakage
3) If roof top hv cafe / swimming pool, party may cause some noise disturbance

Need to read the house rule book. I think the design is there. Better to get the same contractor from other owners to do my grille. They will help settle the deposit for renovation etc.

So anyone done any renovation in Solace? Thanks.

The only detached block would be the one where The Beer Factory is located, between Block B and C. It belongs to Group36 if not mistaken.

SW is drawing bigger and bigger crowd especially at night. I was there last friday night and literally all the "cafe" were flooded with sea of people..

One thing surprised me was that when I walked into the SW, I didnt experience "pasar malam" kind of commotion noise despite the huge crowd. Can it be due to its open space or perhaps the water canal is "absorbing" those chatting voices? hmm.gif

Different ppl hv diff levels of tolerance. Personally i feel SW is coming up real nicely thumbup.gif Would be better if there are more live reports from owners who already move in so that at least we know the actual sound level from the apartments, whether unbearable or otherwise.

Btw, a picture speaks a thousand words, end of September, can't wait!! rclxm9.gif

Different ppl hv diff levels of tolerance. Personally i feel SW is coming up real nicely  thumbup.gif Would be better if there are more live reports from owners who already move in so that at least we know the actual sound level from the apartments, whether unbearable or otherwise.

Btw, a picture speaks a thousand words, end of September, can't wait!!  rclxm9.gif

I believe many shops would be excited to open right after the advent of TGV. Do you know what is the capacity of the available parking facility (within SW)? hmm.gif

Solace Tower is a bit different. In Solace, there are 1007sf units facing forest, at the corner. Those were the hottest units during launch time.

Other than 845sf and 1396sf, there is one end-lot 1096sf per floor with no dark-room. I think that is currently the hottest pick for any sales and rental for people looking for 2 rooms.

It will not be that "nice" if the #07 unit is on the sky garden floors (11th/15th/19th/23rd, especially 11th and and 19th floor where the sky gardens are facing the forest)

i think 07 units on 11th and 19th floor are less privacy due to the sky garden is just next to the bedroom 2 and studyroom windows. imagine ppl chatting in sky garden when u are trying to have a afternoon nap or study for tmr's exam.

Always a rule of 20/80. Means 20% people making money out from 80%. 20% of people can see things that 80% of people dun see. Means, the same will apply to Trigon too. Not many people will look good at Trigon potential. But.... After 2014, let see things happen..

Yeah very true....looking ahead are recommended. From what I know Setia walk was launched during the crisis 2009 & mostly everyone was negative over it. By now many developers are emulating Setia Walk concept. With the water features in Setia Walk...it exudes a cool feeling & being Malaysians, we really love the outdoors & el fresco style.

Sorry, have to disagree again.

Seri Kembangan town is damn damn jam.

serdang perdana worst, the one south!.

& The Balakong go to Seri Kembangan or the KL to Seri Kembangan (using both KL Seremban highway and Sg Besi Highway) also OMG

from the mines tol to balakong takes 30 minutes. I think the LDP tol collector any time better job done than your sg besi highway tol collector.

& your condo infront. The night market cars part beside heritage. Double park some more. It takes 10 minutes just to go out from Heritages shop parking lots on last saturday. 10 minutes,

Again.....Pls shoot me if I am wrong about seri kembangan road system. rclxms.gif

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.

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.

Sorry, have to disagree again.

Seri Kembangan town is damn damn jam.

serdang perdana worst, the one south!.

& The Balakong go to Seri Kembangan or the KL to Seri Kembangan (using both KL Seremban highway and Sg Besi Highway) also OMG

from the mines tol to balakong takes 30 minutes. I think the LDP tol collector any time better job done than your sg besi highway tol collector.

& your condo infront. The night market cars part beside heritage. Double park some more. It takes 10 minutes just to go out from Heritages shop  parking lots on last saturday. 10 minutes,

Again.....Pls shoot me if I am wrong about seri kembangan road system. rclxms.gif

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

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 blush.gif 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.. thumbup.gif

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.

Anyone has any reno photos to share? Need to start planning now, Brio VP is just 4 months away. I know some investors will try to provide as minimal furnishing as possible, but I saw some photos of units for rent in Solace, the owner install fluorescent tube lights rclxub.gif I mean, surely there are better lightings which won't cost a bomb.

I guess the owners of Setiawalk should take pride in their properties & charge rental in accordance to SP SETIA's good brand. Slightly cheaper as compared to Mont Kiara but not so cheap as to cheapens the place.

Hi, i recently got an offer and need some help in the profit calculate below, is my assumptions and understanding correct:

Assumptions:
- buy price: 400k
- sell price: 500k
- agent fee: 3%
- RPGT: 10%
- public bank penalty: 3%

gross profit: 100000

pay agent: 15000
pay bank penalty: 15000 (assume 100% loan to ease calculation)
pay RPGT tax: 10% of (gross profit - agent fee - bank penalty) = 7000
any hidden cost from SP setia's 5/95 scheme: 0 (none that I aware of?)

net profit ~= 63000

Question 2:
if I sign SAP now, and government change RPGT to 30%, will i be affected after 3-4 months when handover happens? is the RPGT effective from letter of offer or SAP?

penalty = 3% x 400K = 12K

pay RPGT tax: 10% of (gross profit - agent fee - bank penalty) = 7000
RPGT = gross profit - agent fee - 10K tax rebate - SPA legal fees(5~6K)= 7000
bank penalty not deductable

net profit ~= 63000
66000

you should also deduct interest charged from net profit before handover to new owner.

Agent fee is standard 2% + GST ( some agent obsorb the GST )
RPGT ( 2 to 5 years from date of buying - S&P and date of selling (S&P ) is 5% ), I believe your unit is more than 2 years by now.

Your ROI is : Selling price MINUS
- buying price
- cost of buying ( legal & loan agreement fee ) - if any
- lost of interest for your deposit since the day one until now - just count as 3%/annum
- interest you are going to pay from now till your loan is fully settled ( buyer's bank pay to your bank loan )
- legal fee ( normally this cost can be minized if seller and buyer use the same lawyer )
- agent fee 2%+GST
- bank lock in penalty

RPGT = selling - bank penalty - agent fee - 10K tax rebate ( this one may be no more - check this to reconfirm by checking your S&P date )

Did u keep track the total interest portion than u lost during the construction phase? As I understand the moment your bank issued 1st payment there will be interest induced based on daily outstanding balance. Besides do not forget the stamp duty, lawyer fee and loan agreement. All these are the cost that you come out during purchasing a property.

I think for this case it is zero interest during construction period, the 5/95 package...

Agent fee is standard 2% + GST ( some agent obsorb the GST )
RPGT ( 2 to 5 years from date of buying - S&P and date of selling (S&P ) is 5% ), I believe your unit is more than 2 years by now.

Your ROI is : Selling price MINUS
- buying price
- cost of buying ( legal & loan agreement fee ) - if any
- lost of interest for your deposit since the day one until now - just count as 3%/annum
- interest you are going to pay from now till your loan is fully settled ( buyer's bank pay to your bank loan )
- legal fee ( normally this cost can be minized if seller and buyer use the same lawyer )
- agent fee 2%+GST
- bank lock in penalty

RPGT = selling - bank penalty - agent fee - 10K tax rebate ( this one may be no more - check this to reconfirm by checking your S&P date )

* mostly developers charge 1% as consent fee ( before issuance of strata title ) for changing ownership, Setia I am not sure - please find out.

the RPGT 10K exemption still there, that's no time limit.

Waiting for someone to come up and say alarm not working tongue.gif Seriously if the siren is sounding for one hour and the guards don't even bother to come and check, something must be really wrong. Good enough to sack them all with immediate effect! mad.gif

Besides blaming the guards of their inefficiencies, the owner of the shop also didn't take initiative to check on his shop even when the alarm went on for one hour.ni thought the alarm trigger devise will signal via his hand phone?

It's unfortunate such incident happened. They claimed the alarm sounded for one hour and no guards came over to check. If this is true then the fault is with the guards, no questions asked. The thieves must be daring as ass, still can wait for one hour there while the alarm was sounding! As for the company itself, didn't do any backup for their projects is their internal fault too. So, a reminder for all of us who are working, backup always!

I feel something hanky panky..insurance company will investigate, they won't simply compensate.
Burglary is not something new, and wat bout fire? Even for my personal data, I make 4 backups, put elsewhere.
I did experienced backup hard disc ever corrupted twice.
I remembered bout 10 yrs ago, my client a big printer (who owed many suppliers money) in Klang claimed the factory burned down all the machineries, causing 10mil lost, but after 2 weeks theirs new factory in Penang started full operation.
wait the police investigation report 1st.

If you consider the price of new launches in the proximity, I think it will be about 500-550psf, having extra cabinets and wardrobes will have slight premium over bare units, some units also have concealed ac pipings.

That's why I put "Setia Walk". As per forumers, it should be Putra Walk in Equine Park. In Setiawalk, the earliest outlet was open just 6 months ago. Talk about reporting quality rolleyes.gif

I think it was built according to specification based on what I heard from some of the owners here.

Anyway, people would have complained back in 2008 if they had thought the then selling prices did not justify.

I visit puchong occasionally for dinner and drink. Since I travel from USJ, Setiawalk is a better choice for me compared to IOI boulevard as I get to avoid the heavy traffic congestion along the stretch of Puchong Jaya. Haha

Agree that SPS dun deliver good building quality, the Setia Eco Glades SD quality is suck!
But we must agree that SPS has the best in terms of credibility, township development is their strength, based on overall rating (qualitative & quantitative), she won 5 No. 1 spot in the last 6 years The Edge Best Developer Award.
Looking at investment point of view, SPS clearly has the edge over others.
FYI, we hv some old BK SD which has 1950sf only, majority only 2500sf, new bungalow with 2700sf-2900sf also hv.

Agree that SPS dun deliver good building quality, the Setia Eco Glades SD quality is suck!
But we must agree that SPS has the best in terms of credibility, township development is their strength, based on overall rating (qualitative & quantitative), she won 5 No. 1 spot in the last 6 years The Edge Best Developer Award.
Looking at investment point of view, SPS clearly has the edge over others.
FYI, we hv some old BK SD which has 1950sf only, majority only 2500sf, new bungalow with 2700sf-2900sf also hv.

Pls use this website to see who got the best quality.

So far, highest score Lim Hoo Seng, Belong to Gamuda Project (maybe under Kota Kemuing or Valencia???? )

SetiaWalk itself has no Grand Entrance, how to make Grand Opening ?
Very bad architecture for a commercial place where it has no grand entrance. No body know from those LDP passing by, there are some interesting places inside. I dun know how Setia Alam management aware this or not.
Some more 6 months until know, the escalator from ground level to 1st level is at reverse direction, but still not fix.

I think 50% of the malls nowadays has no grand entrance.
Look at Paradigm Mall... from LDP... I also can't sense its entrance, but it is quite happening inside..

I guess the trend in Malaysia where most people drive in more than walk in, impacts the design of the architecture as well... I guess the big wall which supposing replaced the grand entrance will become a big advertising wall. The only thing now is there is not much thing to advertise yet...

jz 2 cents.. not sure.. cool2.gif . at least the big "SetiaWalk" word now has lights... better than before...

Just curious, does property come in categories?

Like Honda City and Toyota Vios, Honda Accord and Toyota Camry, we automatically categorize them as same category.
It is not possible to compare a Toyota Estima with a Toyota Vios... both comes with air-con but only the premium one comes with dual zone control ...

So, I wonder if all the projects in the list comes in the same category or different category? hmm.gif

I was at SP Setia Sky residence showroom few weeks ago, the salesman explained, SP Setia is no different to a big manufacturer, they specifically own different division to handle different projects, the common one around KL - SetiaWalk, Setia Sky and Setia City.... are all handled by different division and aims on different audience...

Taman Wawasan is an integrated township sandwiched between Puchong Jaya and Bandar Puteri in Pusat Bandar Puchong. It is one of the earlier developments in the area and its completion coincided with that of the Damansara-Puchong Highway (LDP), give or take a year or so. (For Google map reference, log on to maps.google.com.my and search for “Kuala Lumpur”.)

It has a very strategic location, directly opposite the Tesco Extra hypermarket and the partially completed Setia Walk commercial centre. The IOI Mall is located close by and it has direct access to the LDP.

There is also a small internal road that links this township to Puchong Jaya via Persiaran Wawasan and Jalan Serindit 1 respectively. However it is quite narrow, windy and limited to light vehicles.

The terrain here is hilly on the east side. This is part of the mountain claw that forms the Klang Valley. The Klang River is located far on the west side, flowing south. What is unique here is that the eastern hills have “fingers” extruding out towards the river.

One of these extrusions is located at the northern boundary of Taman Wawasan and another is found to the south, where Bandar Puteri’s Lebuh Puteri is located. Thus, there is a C-shaped claw formed to embrace Bandar Wawasan.

This is a fantastic landform, with a three-sided high land and a river on the fourth side. Energy flowing downhill is concentrated within the valley and as it moves westward through the only exit, it meets a river which reflects and deflects it into a gentle, homogenous and conducive pool within this valley.

Therefore, this section is very conducive and attractive to life and success. Generally speaking, the best orientation for properties is west towards the river. Shophouses along the LDP facing the highway tend to enjoy very good business because of this.

However, there are elevated U-turns constructed at several points of the highway to facilitate traffic flow. Shops located near these man-made mountains are impacted by this and tend to fare less well compared with its neighbours further down the road.

Apart from west, other properties can face practically any direction and still do well, thanks to their immersion in the energy pool formed by the mountain embrace. The only exceptions are properties located on or very close to steep slopes.

Hi, anyone have comments on the current price of Setia Walk Solace? and how about the near to completion Brio? Is the current price of RM500psf justifiable or is it under priced (versus Trigon) + the future LRT station that would be build just right infront of Setia Walk's main entrance + developed by SP Setia (country's No.1 developer in The Edge Malaysia Top Property Developers Awards for 6th time, the only developer to have achieved this feat since the inception of the awards).

Dun need to rush. Still long way to go up. Better than putting in the bank and burn by them.
For Brio, it will take another year before tenant dare to stay as the first 6 months, always nightmare due to Reno works. So, by the time, Solace will be the best choice for all. By the time, TGV up and more things come solid too. If u can hold, dont hard sell. Most important things, quality tenant required, thus values go together.

There is a series of appraisers, 2 main category - Quantitative & Qualitative, each category has 3 elements, quality / buyers satisfaction is only 1/6 of those elements, SPS may not score high mark in quality and nett gearing but value creation and creativity score is very high, the rest criterias also not bad.
The Edge selection is the best valuation system to examine a company in tis country

Pardon my ignorance, may I know if Malaysia government imposes any limitation on the number of TOP awards a property developer can receive? rclxms.gif biggrin.gif rclxms.gif

In 2011, S P Setia was ranked No.1 in The Edge Malaysia Top Property Developers Awards for the 6th time, the only developer to have achieved this feat since the inception of the awards. S P Setia is also the only Malaysian developer to be recognised thrice by the International Real Estate Federation (FIABCI). Locally, the Group also has five FIABCI Malaysia Property Awards to its name. Apart from property development awards, S P Setia also made it to the Aon Hewitt Best Employers list four times. In 2011, it emerged as the Overall Best Employer in Malaysia and one of the Best Employers in Asia Pacific.

Yes but valuer will value a prop base on transacted price, so if above deal is true, in future, maybe 3 months later, the valuer might take above deal as reference to value SW apartment then.

Yes but valuer will value a prop base on transacted price, so if above deal is true, in future, maybe 3 months later, the valuer might take above deal as reference to value SW apartment then.

too early to judge, we will know by 2016 only, when LRT is ready, PFCC is ready, all the apartments in SW are occupied.
Currently the slow in take up rate (commercial) was largely due to high rental. Those shop owners are going to "break" theirs' rice bowl if they are insisting on charging high rental, high rental will eventually cause the goods sold in every outlets become expensive, at the moment I dun think majority Puchong folks have such spending power to consume in SW.
If SPS fails to fill up the Entertainment Mall outlets (100%) prior to the official opening ceremony, the chances for SW to fail (not "Wong") is very high.

As I said before the opening of SW. One of the key strategy to ensure a success of a Mall is "timing"
Ideally the entertainment Mall and all the 80++ shoplots shd be opened together, at least 90% of the retails spaces shd be occupied prior to the official opening, Times Square has made such mistake and SPS shd be aware of it. A few key factors for a successful Mall are :-

1. Location (not necessary prime location but mkt catchment must be adequate)
2. Size of Mall (at least 2 mil onward)
3. Full control of tenant mix
4. Design of the Mall (Width > height)
5. Timing - all retails business operate at the same time
6. Anchor tenant (hypermarket, cinema, banks etc)

From the above, SW has 1 & 4 only, the chance to become very "Wong" is very slim, It is quite lucky that SW is located in Puchong, becoz there are not many competitors around except IOI Mall (which I think not a successful one). So at the time being, SW shd be able to sustain for another few years, if those landlords are so greed and unaware of the mkt downturn, their tenants will eventually leave since their business is not making profit due to high rental. SPS does not seems aware of the situation, if they let TGV starts operation alone, I believe entire entertainment mall will die eventually. my 2 bakuli

Very true. Then the owners are killing themselves because of "greedy".
They should make the place "Wong" first before thinking of raising the value.

Really 苦口婆心, coming from someone who has probably vested in SW.

Much that they want to open the joints together but due to the tenants are not coming in fast enough, it has come to a point that those have rented out could not wait any further, waiting further will costs them losing more rental.

This is really a catch 22.

If rental is the main show stopper for tenants to come in, that should be fixed. And I agree, if TGV opens in the current state, I am afraid it will not sustain.

If investors who own shop lots or SOHOS, shouldn't be too greedy and ask for high rentals. For a mall to be successful, win win situations have to be applied I.e. shop landlords should rent at affordable prices, so tenants can sell products and services to profit all. If landlords are too greedy, tenants will leave & I am sure landlords will failed even if they want to start their own business. It's not a theory, it's proven. So shops' owners beware!!!!

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.

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.

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..

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!!!

I think don't people should underestimate Puchong projects. I remember several years back some said "puchong not for human's live in". And as it turns out its developing too rapidly. What I like about it is that its a self contained township. The catchment is huge, and people will eventually realise, why need to go all the way to Mid Valley or KLCC to shop.

We need to separate the discussion between residential and commercial.

The residential part of SW will have a smoother sail.

The commercial part of SW will have a rougher ride.

It's a matter of fact that Puchong Jaya, Setia Walk and Bandar Puteri area combined have currently a surplus of commercial units. Those who have time can drive around to see how many vacant shop lots are there. Some already vacant for a few years. And that's not the end of the story, you will see IOI factory continues to produce more commercial units.

And those rented out their shop lots, most of them rent them below their targeted return.

If we are not careful, the puchong golden mile commercial units will be a live case study for the creation of bubbles.

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..
*
+1, not forgetting The Curve/IPC which is also another good example of "mega mall".

SW is definitely a "local mall" for now imo.

Puchong known as murder capital of selangor. Bodies are dump into nearby former mining lakes. My indon friend told me. Sometimes indon murder a fellow worker they dump in those lakes. If ask puchong policemen nicely they will tell you puchong is label as kawasan hitam (black district) or dangerous area for selangor.

point taken.

I was just arguing that people used to underestimate Puchong as a residential area. And I think they are now underestimating it as a commercial area. With an increasing catchment area, commercial units within Puchong will become viable. With high petrol prices, traffic jam and toll, people will tend to want to shop within their township.

Eventually people will think out of the box and say - wait a minute, do we really need a glitzy address for our sales office?

Just saying.

Common , ignorant & "small people" complaint & criticized on others. I once passed over a notorious city called Johanesberg and stayed on a hill heavily guarded by soldiers & German Shepherds. Looking away from the highly fenced perimeter, I gazed on this beautiful city called Johanesberg. The moral of the story is that if many complaint in their whole lives about everything, Puchong is not the only place for them to stay or other cities....they should stay behind bars, fences and anything of the sorts.....

Alrighty ..
Dont get emotional .. I think you all need my input ..
Ok let me help u guys out.
I am currently staying in SW apartment. I can give a fair input to everyone here.
Do you want to begin with pro or con first brows.gif
Ok. Let's start with something bad ya ..
1) The mall is dead in daylight. I myself cant think of any reason why i should go there. Hopefully TGV can bring change to this.
2) Access - sorry have to brag about residence part. There is still no proper access and exit from the apartment. I still need to go in via the mall and exit via the carpark. I dont think this problem will be resolved not in the next few months time.
3) Occupancy - After few months of VP, there has been very low occupancy. It is about 10 units out of 200 over units. I think mostly are really investors or flippers. I heard more coming in Nov.
4) Facilities - Despite VP for few months, some of the facilities are still not open for resident. The gym was locked all the time, the lobby is still empty, etc. Luckily the swimming pool is finally up and running last week.
5) Noise - This is frustrating as well cos my unit is facing the LDP, hence i get all the noise from the pubs and bars. The noise is so loud and it last till 3am .. However, it is on Fri and Sat only. The rest of the day is pretty okay to have some soft, relaxing, free music.
6) Now back to commercial, u can see some of the shops are doing pretty bad. Not all eateries are doing well. What more to say about other business. Basically if you are doing business in daytime then it's a matter of time.

Okay hope i cover enough of the cons. Or for some who want to bash me, let me finish off with the pros
1) The mall is alive, happening and kicking at night time. I myself cant think of any reason why i shouldn't go there if i want to have a drink. What a nice ambience. It is definitely one of the best place u can count on your hand.
2) Nice occupancy - As mentioned about 10 units currently occupied. Mostly are chinese, if not, then they are expats. I have seen 2 units ang moh, and one indian family expat. I heard another ang moh coming in soon. I think SW attracts the ang moh because they can have beer just downstairs.
3) Security - i cant say security is good just because nothing happen or who knows it may happen. Anyway, from what i observed, they are pretty okay and strict. I think they employed enough guards or maybe they dont need so many. But they made me feel safe. In fact, one head security can speak english better than me unsure.gif
4) Owners - I have seen a few owners who bought for investment. One actually told me he saw prospect in SW and intend to rent it out until LRT and PFCC completed. I guess there are still many exciting news that can bring value to SW. I believe the owners are looking for long term investment and they didnt compromise to rent to ah chu ah gao because they want the caps to be higher in near future.

Ok i hope i cover enough.

given a chance again to you
you wanna choose facing the ldp or behind instead?

Actually if price is not too much difference, i would have chosen facing wawasan because it's more serene and has bigger sqft. btw, the view facing ldp actually is not too bad especially at night. Problem is really on the noise.

Are there enough anchor tenants in this place ? Between tgv cinema and LRT station, that's good 2-3 years apart. If that's the case, maybe after a year or so tgv also charp larp lor.

Based on the information on the net, they are listing these as anchored tenants :-

TGV Cinemas, Celebrity Fitness and Superstar Karaoke

I think it's not sufficient. There is a need to have a department store. LRT is a good factor, but too long to come.

Some how or rather small neighbourhood mall no matter what cannot beat the traditional 3 storey shoplot commercial area... tongue.gif

SW some how or rather give me a sense of overly high density and the heavy traffic just outside add to the pressure...

Alrighty ..
Dont get emotional .. I think you all need my input ..
Ok let me help u guys out.
I am currently staying in SW apartment. I can give a fair input to everyone here.
Do you want to begin with pro or con first  brows.gif
Ok. Let's start with something bad ya ..
1) The mall is dead in daylight. I myself cant think of any reason why i should go there. Hopefully TGV can bring change to this.
2) Access - sorry have to brag about residence part. There is still no proper access and exit from the apartment. I still need to go in via the mall and exit via the carpark. I dont think this problem will be resolved not in the next few months time.
3) Occupancy - After few months of VP, there has been very low occupancy. It is about 10 units out of 200 over units. I think mostly are really investors or flippers. I heard more coming in Nov.
4) Facilities - Despite VP for few months, some of the facilities are still not open for resident. The gym was locked all the time, the lobby is still empty, etc. Luckily the swimming pool is finally up and running last week.
5) Noise - This is frustrating as well cos my unit is facing the LDP, hence i get all the noise from the pubs and bars. The noise is so loud and it last till 3am .. However, it is on Fri and Sat only. The rest of the day is pretty okay to have some soft, relaxing, free music.
6) Now back to commercial, u can see some of the shops are doing pretty bad. Not all eateries are doing well. What more to say about other business. Basically if you are doing business in daytime then it's a matter of time.

Okay hope i cover enough of the cons. Or for some who want to bash me, let me finish off with the pros
1) The mall is alive, happening and kicking at night time. I myself cant think of any reason why i shouldn't go there if i want to have a drink. What a nice ambience. It is definitely one of the best place u can count on your hand.
2) Nice occupancy - As mentioned about 10 units currently occupied. Mostly are chinese, if not, then they are expats. I have seen 2 units ang moh, and one indian family expat. I heard another ang moh coming in soon. I think SW attracts the ang moh because they can have beer just downstairs.
3) Security - i cant say security is good just because nothing happen or who knows it may happen. Anyway, from what i observed, they are pretty okay and strict. I think they employed enough guards or maybe they dont need so many. But they made me feel safe. In fact, one head security can speak english better than me  unsure.gif
4) Owners - I have seen a few owners who bought for investment. One actually told me he saw prospect in SW and intend to rent it out until LRT and PFCC completed. I guess there are still many exciting news that can bring value to SW. I believe the owners are looking for long term investment and they didnt compromise to rent to ah chu ah gao because they want the caps to be higher in




near future.

Ok i hope i cover enough.

As I said before the opening of SW. One of the key strategy to ensure a success of a Mall is "timing"
Ideally the entertainment Mall and all the 80++ shoplots shd be opened together, at least 90% of the retails spaces shd be occupied prior to the official opening, Times Square has made such mistake and SPS shd be aware of it. A few key factors for a successful Mall are :-

1. Location (not necessary prime location but mkt catchment must be adequate)
2. Size of Mall (at least 2 mil onward)
3. Full control of tenant mix
4. Design of the Mall (Width > height)
5. Timing - all retails business operate at the same time
6. Anchor tenant (hypermarket, cinema, banks etc)

From the above, SW has 1 & 4 only, the chance to become very "Wong" is very slim, It is quite lucky that SW is located in Puchong, becoz there are not many competitors around except IOI Mall (which I think not a successful one). So at the time being, SW shd be able to sustain for another few years, if those landlords are so greed and unaware of the mkt downturn, their tenants will eventually leave since their business is not making profit due to high rental. SPS does not seems aware of the situation, if they let TGV starts operation alone, I believe entire entertainment mall will die eventually. my 2 bakuli

boss, kpc into this thread and saw a reply to your post here. can't help but chirp in a little to seek your expert opinion.
size of mall. you mentioned 2 mil onward. not that many mall is bigger than 2mil sf gross. if net, don't think there's any at all except maybe bts. and bts with the tagline biggest mall in malaysia has so far not necessary yield the best result. would you consider empire subang to be a successful mall? or what about giza mall or tropicana city mall? paradigm?
full control, agree with you but sg. wang and bts is doing okay currently. kwc also not too bad last i heard. but do agree mall with full control should perform better.
design of mall. so far don't think there's any height > width. are there any? maybe kwc? what do you think about vertical malls similiar to those in hk? can work in bolehland or not?
timing. i couldn't agree more on this. think this is absolutely critical. think citta mall failed big time because of this. 1mk suffered similiarly too.
anchor tenant. it helps to have reputable tenants. but somehow reputable tenants are the ones paying the cheapest rents.

btw, heard scm ain't doing well also.

I forecasted that the price in the future will jump due to the accessibility & connection via LRT & even by bus. Yesterday I took a bus ride from Setiawalk to KL, just refusing to drive & I really enjoyed it. Took half an hour to reach KL. OWNERS OF units should hold on & have long with holding power of their units & must have same mind set on controlling rent, in order not to spoil the market. Even I have lunch over there, prices are reasonable & I don't feel the heat of the sun, thanks to the water features landscape & at times quite breezy. Typical Malaysians' old & ancient mindsets have to be discarded about only having air cond malls, because this water features landscape is the first one in Puchong. At least Puchong has move ahead.

Maxis fiber is sharing Unifi one. but Unifi cannot enter this area as Wawasan under Maxis. So interlocked. Hope these 2 giant telco can sit down and nice talking to settle. Else, U or Y also can play into the role to grab this significant market by increasing their antenna signal and coverage.

I presume the rental could reach maximum for studio at RM1800/mth, thus, a gross yield of 5% is just a minimum requirement. (we use to take 6%-8% for apartment.
430K is a very good offer nod.gif

Unless that the rental can reach at least RM2000/mth, otherwise I dun see 1+1 (845sf) can achieve 480K and above. At this market situation, I dun think there is a big demand for 1 room apartment (at RM2000/mth). I believe RM2K rental per month can get 3 rooms condo (old) in Bandar Puteri.

Its quite annoying having agents specifically asking for apartments to be sold & moreover with the kind of price tag. Perhaps this price only exist beginning of last year. If buyers can't afford to buy anything more than RM600k, they are welcome to rent the units. Agents should encouraged potential buyers to rent rather than buy. If buyers still insist to buy...can consider Trigon or else wil complaint in the future that they missed the boat again.

True. My friend is renting a 1200sf fully furnished 3-room condo unit at Aseana Puteri for only RM1700.

Granted. SW could demand a higher rental rate being in an integrated commercial development but I think RM2000 for a 845sf 1+1 room is still a long way to go for locals.

Puchong apartment rental is relatively lower than Subang. Setia Walk apartment has something to ride on, hoping that the commercial sector is moving, the underlying value would be greater.
Judging fr various factors i.e locality, concept, accessibility and rent-able quality, I render SW as the best apartment in Puchong at this moment. nod.gif

As a resident of Solace Apartment, i might be bias.
Wait a minute, i actually don't agree with all this high price jack up.
Let me tell you guys the fact ok.
Owners always want high price, buyers always look for cheapest price.
No doubt SW is currently the most high class apartment in puchong even though it may not look like one wink.gif
Ok the fact is market demand that is willing to pay for 1.8k to 2k rent is less in puchong. But the concept is the same everywhere.
Wherever you go in this part of world, u will see that the most expensive stuff usually have the least transaction volume.
Because buyer or tenant will always compare against the cheapest.
I would think SW apartment has potential too but let's put it this way, it has yet to reach the state that all owners want at this moment.
Like some taiko have said on the commercial shoplots, while i don't brand it as failure but it is still far from success.
The night is lively but the day is dead.
Forgive me for taking this comparison, SW is like a prostitute.
All night-goers that visited her find that she is a beauty. But this beauty will fade and exhausted when she accepts customer of this kind.
SW needs to change her job by opening day time shop, then she can maintain her beauty otherwise it may bound to failure one day when she lose her attractiveness.
At the moment, i still see new shops open every month. But i find it slow, and hope it doesn't come to a day when the shops start to close down.

Yeahh and those Subang / Sunway old condos without much facilities needed also can rent higher. It was due to area flooded with colleges and convenience to go highway.

I also surprise tat my IM, USJ 1 rent out RM 2,500 easily partly ff / 1305 sq ft in 2010. But the best was Suriamas Sunway, the 1240 sf 4 rooms apmt, rent out much easier in 1-2 days for RM 2,000 without f/f.

I think Puchong highrise rental had picked up a bit recently this year. Bfore this, the rental yield is not ideal at all. I am sure, slowly it will pick up bcz ppl will starts to accept to pay toll and actually the traffic in Puchong had improved slightly better than 1-2 years ago.

I suggest you go to iproperty.com.my, search "setia walk" under "all apartments". I have seen a few postings with photos of the free cabinets.

The seat is very spacious and the screen is big. The most front seats are far away enough. we don need to go to sunway tgv.i don't like the restaurant at ground floor. Though it is open air but the breeze is blocked by the buildings. Feel hot in the open air.

TGV Cinemas Goes Fully Digital with 3D-X TGV Cinemas launches new outlet at SetiaWalk, Puchong, Selangor

Kuala Lumpur, 28 November 2012 – TGV Cinemas Sdn Bhd (TGV Cinemas) yesterday led the way to the future for exhibitors and cinema operators in Malaysia with the launch of its new Digital 3D projection system called 3D-X with the exclusive premiere of Ang Lee’s first 3D film, Life of Pi at the spanking new 50,923 sq ft TGV Cinemas SetiaWalk in Puchong, Selangor.

This launch also signifies the theatre’s progressive transition from 35 mm film projection to digital cinema projection which is expected to be fully completed by January 2013. Apart from delivering unmatched brightness, sharpness and superior 3D images, with 3D-X, TGV Cinemas is now capable of displaying high-definition content – 2K, 4K and 3D feature films, documentaries and alternative content.

Kenny Wong, CEO, TGV Cinemas Sdn Bhd and Chow Will Pin, Managing Director, 20th Century Fox Films Malaysia and Indonesia.

"The innovation found in today’s digital cinema technology to greatly improve the movie-going experience makes the film-to-digital conversion a top priority for TGV Cinemas. With the 3D-X roll-out, TGV Cinemas can now offer the best in digital cinematic experience in 3D," explained Kenny Wong, CEO of TGV Cinemas.

The new cinema at SetiaWalk is the 20th TGV outlet and is located in the Puchong vicinity. The opening of a new cinema is timely as it addresses the growing need of a cinema exhibitor in the developing neighbourhood which extends to Subang and Shah Alam. Cinema-goers can catch their favourite movies without needing to travel to high traffic areas in other parts of the Klang Valley.

TGV SetiaWalk brings a whole new dimension to the cinema experience for Malaysians as it includes the very best of comfort and digital cinema experience. The new cinema is home to a Beanieplex, which has comfortable cushy beanbag seats that come in pairs, and eight other cinema halls all equipped with the latest digital projection system.

Movie seating at TGV SetiaWalk is one of the features not to be missed. The stadium-like seating provides cinema-goers an exceptional vantage point inside the cinema halls directed to the screen. This unique positioning of plush seats is paired with wider leg room that guarantees comfort throughout the duration of a movie.

Setting new benchmarks in the cinema industry, TGV Cinemas is more than just a cinema exhibitor. TGV SetiaWalk is also another venue for hosting corporate and private events.

Equipped with two function rooms and a classy foyer, Malaysians can expect one-of-a-kind- event experiences at TGV Cinemas.


“Cinema-goers constantly demand for a change of environment whilst watching a movie. The combination of high technology and unique experience are the essentials to provide a value-added cinema experience. With the distinctive features at SetiaWalk, our patrons are now able to experience the full potential of a movie screening with crystal clear image and sound and a comfortable ambience,” said Wong.

“We are in the business of entertainment and entertainment is all about engaging the emotional experience of the audience. As this is also a natural part of our business, TGV Cinemas is always at the forefront in ensuring Malaysians get to experience new and innovative measures as they step foot into our cinemas,” said Wong.

“With the technology enhancements and upgrades, all our cinema patrons can look forward to a slew of exciting blockbuster movies lined up next year with a cinematic experience unlike any other,” Wong added.

And now sexy 007 (1%), sexy Bond girls (10%), sophisticated weapons (0%) and exciting fighting scenes (10%) to make it 21%.

Just to share my experience.

On a Saturday morning (24/11/2012...3rd day of opening TGV SW), around 11.30am, one of the cinema halls was playing "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2", the whole cinema only got 2 audiences, myself and my son, really amazing!

No lah, hahaha!

But really appreciate TGV...they still keep the movie running with only 2 miserable audiences.

Just like some taiko said, after going to TGV, you can say bye-bye to the GSC cinemas in IOI Mall.

If your only purpose of going to a IOI mall is to watch shows then I can understand that.

But people go to cinemas and do many other things as well.

So I don't think this TGV in SetiaWalk would be a big enough threat to the GSC in IOI Mall.

So this is your prediction ?

How much time do you need ( to allow TGV to ramp up ) ?

Shall we give you 6 months to see if GSC will be really in "real trouble" after 6 months ? Kekeke ....

Don't tell me you need another 2 years lar, then the prediction not much meaning.

Watching movie is at least 2-hours thing, after I watch in TGV, I am very sure I will not go back to GSC.
If want to spend 4-6 hours to shop, I may go to Sunway / Mid Valley / 1 Utama. If really want to shop in IOI JJ, I will watch TGV & then drive to IOI JJ.

Well, that's your shopping/cinema going style. You are free to choose your style, but we are not sure it will be applicable to most people. As far as the business prosperity is concerned, it is the majority that matters,

And some even go to the extend to predict that GSC will be in big trouble. But what is the definition of "big trouble" ? Is 6 months enough for us to see that GSC will be in "trouble" ? Or are we saying that GSC will wind down their business in 1 year time ?

I am just saying TGV in SetiaWalk is no way nearing being a threat to GSC in IOI mall. On the contrary, it's TGV which itself has yet to establish a good footing. If TGV is able to establish itself, then the outcome is that Puchong will sustain two cinema centres. It will not bring down GSC. And don't forget there is also a possibility that TGV might not able to sustain. Kekeke .....

If TGV is able to establish itself, then the outcome is that Puchong will sustain two cinema centres. It will not bring down GSC. And don't forget there is also a possibility that TGV might not able to sustain. Kekeke .....

I agree, it's yr money and it's yr choice.
BTW hv you watch movie in TGV SW before?
I would say SW TGV is better than Sunway TGV except the IMAX

Well, that's your shopping/cinema going style. You are free to choose your style, but we are not sure it will be applicable to most people. As far as the business prosperity is concerned, it is the majority that matters,

101% agreed! Everything and anything is possible. It is possible that tgv sw might not sustain. It is possible that puchong might sustain two cinemas within a mile of each other. It is also possible that tgv might threaten gsc ioi mall's businwss.

Oh, monday blues....

As for me, of course I will go to SW TGV for a movie...walk along the water features to enjoy the serenity of the water & plants b4 going for a cup of coffee after a meal. If I would go for groceries shopping...just walk over the bridge & drop by at Tesco. No need to be too stereotyped & typical Malaysians doing the same boring stuffs.

Of course only you & your son, because it's still new. I went to Siam Paragon cinema and only a few cinema goers. I even tried cinemas in Singapore..sometimes only a handful.

Shall we give you 6 months to see if GSC will be really in "real trouble" after 6 months ? Kekeke ....

I am really amused lar.

You said TGV in SW will put GSC in "real touble", but you never mention time frame. What is the meaning ? It will be like saying there is an end to the world, but never say when.

I am only disputing those who think TGV poses threat to GSC. What makes a cinema centre ong is definitely more that just the comfortable seats. Actually TGV should better look after it's own yard carefully before it will able to put others in trouble. TGV itself is on shaky ground. I am just saying the ecosystem in SW itself is far from being ready for TGV to perform. And that needs fixing. Go and fix it and no need to be so big headed and 一廂情愿。

That one is Solace ground floor lobby with the management office just setup ( at the side). They will install the lighting now. The ground floor lobby will be redo again.

Another thing is there additional upper lobby which also with sofa and tables ( u need access via security door first).

SP got handful on preparing Solace and I believe the delivery of Brio and Vio will be greatly improved after this.

Overall, SW are doing great, especially with the opening of TGV, few big corner lots are undergoing extensive reno now.

Total Solace occupied units as of today : 45 families. But from the early morning activities, more expected to arrive w loads of contractors and moving in trucks.

Dear sir, this is ur style of prediction. Don't put into others. Btw, ecosystem in SW is going up nicely.

I just Tgv SW provide better experiences, comfortable seats and great environment now. Others thing abt Tgv, not an interest to me.

Big head...?? I would have thought u maybe owned a retail unit in IOI Mall then??

Fix it ?? Not my job... SP will need to do better then.
