boss. got difference between congested/crowded area and jammed up area.
eg. mid valley. i wouldn't term it as jammed up but definitely crowded area.
same goes for 1 utama area.

they got good circulation plan in place although there are occasions it still jam up.
but persiaran surian is like once stuck, you can't escape scenario.

hope you understand what i'm trying to convey here.

this type of offering - it's all about lifestyle.

eg. wonder why ikea and curve is packed like sardins every weekend? furniture great merr? people from all over come to "experience" though jam like mad.

if TG can provide anything different and can capture the imagination of the yuppies/wannabes, done.

I agree with you. Somehow, I just don't think TG's access roads cam make it into a very vibrant mall. Surviving, yes but thriving, hard to say. The plus point is definitely the MRT but bear in mind this MRT is very near the depot already. Not many quality shoppers from Sg Buloh side and dun expect too many shoppers taking MRT from city side to this mall. Main determinant is still access roads and I think TG is just not central enough to make it big. No hard feelings but my 2 cents.

A mall have a few stages to go thru.
Early stage- first 3-5 years. When they are new. they try recruit as many potential tenants as possible. Offer selected location n Locate their tenant base on what they think/imaging how the traffic flow would be like. All guess guess only even after research. Most important filling up the empty space. To rush for opening.

Second stage- after 3 to 5 years. when mall grow healthy/ok. They will start to conclude the age crowd and traffic again after few years observation. This is the time they start to butchering the tenants does not meet the sale requirement. N force them relocate to other places. To improve mall image and healthy traffic flow to cover whole mall.

Macam how pavilion slaughtered niche n replace with muji. Media take picture from front gate entrance also nice mah. More international feel. But heard muji not doing well in malai.

Setia city mall can't said bad. The mall still very happening especially weekend. They are just entering the second stages.... Butchering n restructuring..... N struggling how to improve weekday crowd. If a mall purely depend on weekend crowd. Can go mati liao. But when the surrounding getting mature maybe weekday traffic can improve slowly.

That's why Mv is the top best mall among all others mall.
Weekday traffic also healthy is very important. Manyak mall jealous n still struggle on weekday crowd. Even Old n well establish 1u mall also face this problem.

Above MV easily 10k workers hehe..92% office occupancy.. few hotels with very high occupancy.. all these components really support the mall..

MV is the best positioned to ride out retail oversupply.. they reno 1 level by 1 n will look super nice next time (lvl 3 completed), got future LRT n P Klang KTM link thru ecocity, southpoint 65 storey office & little competiton from ecocity with more support from the components thr.. 1u got mrt but stiff comp from Empire while Sunwai planning phase 4 cos they not strong with only BRT n pavi BJ mall might take away their puchong crowd..

I think TG mall cant compete with Empire at all cos TG cant bring in fashion anchors as we can see.. they shld have brought in the city black AEON   

TG is targeted as neighbourhood mall ala Paradigm, not a destination mall like EC.

Bro, kidzania outlet expansion it could be 1 or 2 in the region only.
theme park in the mall could be half die, look at times square, no room for enhancement. couldnt retain regular customer, owes target new customer only.
unless indoor water theme park in the mall, havent experience in Malaysia yet
