5 billion development value and 1st 24 hours lifestyle commercial area in Shah Alam





i-City is a 72 acres ICT-based urban development beside the Federal Highway in Section 7, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. Master planned by world-renowned and award-winning architect Jon A Jerde, i-City was designed as a fully integrated intelligent city, comprising corporate, leisure and residential components such as a 1.0 million sq. ft. regional shopping mall, office towers, Cybercentre office suites, hotels, apartments, data centres and innovation centre.
i-City is a MSC Malaysia Cybercentre where knowledge-based companies with MSC Malaysia status can enjoy the various incentives offered under the MSC Malaysia Bills of Guarantee. It has also been endorsed as a Tourism Destination by the Ministry of Tourism and declared as an International Park by the Selangor State Government where entertainment and other cosmopolitan lifestyle outlets are permitted to operate on a 24 X 7 basis.
With 13 million sq ft of approved built-up and a Gross Development Value of RM 3 billion, this gated and guarded development is today recognized as a catalyst in the transformation of Shah Alam into an International City. Although todate only 20% of the land area has been developed, i-City is already an established MSC Malaysia Cybercentre as well as leisure hub in Shah Alam attracting 90,000 visitors a week to experience its LED lightscape, Snowalk as well as the various themed attractions

Wow, how you manage to get so much internal info? Good share bro!

For legian, anyone move in recently? Can share renovation photos?

Bacially all search from internet.....

gud gud

Nice sharing. I bought one unit end of last year. Initially a little worried coz not many talked about this township. Now feel much better as more & more sharing I can see about this township.

so you moving in or to rent?

The Legians have quite a number of houses rented to uni students.... this is bad considering there's like more than 8-10 ppl staying in each house with the bikes and cars parked all over and the bedsheets is used as curtains!!!

Do take note

I bought it for own stay. I think there is some owner who complained to Ken Rimba about the student renting... I do feel the same that it jeopardize the image, livability & security of Ken Rimba.

I've also just sent an email to contact@kenholdings.com.my regarding this.

well done!!!

I just visit Legian last week I think only 3-5 units right now are occupied by owners. The rest are students and some houses even hang up POLITICIAN PARTY FLAGS...

How many units you saw that occupied by students? Kindly share.

I'm still getting calls from agents to rent out my place to students. Any I turn them away as am looking for family. Well, I wonder does the developer communicate owner's concerns to agents

I didn't count but I guess around more than 10 rent out. At least 4-5 are student houses (I can't sure probably some are rich students).

Good job...
It is difficult to build a success township. Not only depend on the development concept... Many luxury condo in Klang Valley become the low cost appartment due to uncontrolled tenant or improper building maintainance.
The management of the new property/township always is the 1st concern point for me.
Do it right at the 1st time. Hopefully can gather our (invester and owner for Ken rimba legian, jimbaran, coming condo, comercial shoplot) small power to monitor and make the changes.

From subsale? What is the price... ?
I bought it from subsale last month.. RM530,000.
