Anyone has more information about DA Land? Thanks

That is what the developer want to sell some of the retail lots to spread risks to the investors. Prime lots will be retained by them.

Will better than agromall at the highway

How is their other project lakeclub parkhome doing?
With few well known developer entering rawang, will it be the next potential hot spot?

Is this well managed by strong retail agency
then whole rawang will transform if yes
whole rawang do not hv proper shopping mall, populatio. Is growing thx to landed developmwnt

lakeclub is different from the rest of rawang projects... it's at the old rawang

Ya. Since it's the same developer (da land) just curious hows the project quality.
New rawang looks like booming as the land is stil relatively cheap. Distance to kl still consider okay..

I think not yet vp

Fuiyoh, this concept is like better than i-city x 100 times

It is. It looks more like a shopping mall to be build in a modern days castle to me. Lol

I had read thru the project analysis. Yes the concept is gd. The only thing concern is the developer's ability n experience to manage such a big project as well as the recent announcement by gomen to abolish dibs diss scheme. Not sure wats the impact on dis project.

this project surely will boom rawang

From what i heard, they are joining the overhead restaurant to the mall as like what we see in pics.

People from Ipoh, Penang can come here shopping before go to Genting, good?

What i heard is they will be building a new r&r station there along with a overhead restaurant. Dont know is it possible since the Sungai Buloh station is not far away..

Just rumors..

Imo, It does not seems possible to have 2x overhead bridge restaurant merely 10km apart.... but just guessing... it seems possible that with the NSE expansion into 4 lanes, they need to demolish the sungai buloh overhead bridge restaurant to make way for the 4th lanes both sides? as if not mistaken, the footing of the sungai buloh overhead bridge restaurant seems to be very narrow if were to expand into 4th lanes,and that is also a bottleneck area with the slightly uphill from southbound to duta/nkve, and also the r & r typically having many big trucks stopping/waitting near to the exit of r&r contributing to the slower traffic flow at such an important bukit lanjan intersection, kl/duta or nkve



the phase 1 of The Two : Food and Beverage City does sounds a little like R & R

Yes, what you said make sense. The food and beverage city will have all kinds of Malaysian food where it could only be found in certain area of the country. I really hope this project would realize.

After watch the video and eBrochure, DaLand get serious this time,hopefully this project can succeed Will it be another Sunway Lagoon and Sunway Pyramid???

Fascinating isn't it..

Very impressive project. Hope they sell and do well. I just chked with them on the selling price. It is really Very very high in rawang.They told me about 2500psf on ave.
Although they said they will have on wholesales center, 4 star Hotel, theme park, convention center and etc but no specific operators are on board yet. The developer is still relatively new. Was wondering if they can really pull through this massive project.

Yup...new developer.
just read the newspaper and know that 140 units of retails 100% sold out!!! Really?

One of the board of director Mr.derek Chew is the GCEO of Houz Depot. http://emall.houzdepot.com/v/about-us
Maybe he will open another Houz Depot there.
Just wonder who will be their anchor tenants
Very aggressive guy.

Another director, ms irene tan was the previous consultant for midvalley, also AEON and guardian..

3rd floor(140 units) which is the floor where the cinema will be located are fully sold

Strata title mall not easy to manage somemore so huge

140 units just in one floor? What is the average build up area for the shoplot?

I agree!

Yes, 140 units in 1 floor. As for the average nett lettable area, it is about 200,000 sf per floor according to sa. The whole of Empire Gallery in Subang is about 360,000 sf.Just to give you a rough idea on how big the mall is.

The build up size for the lots is starting from 131sf till over 400sf.

haha... this will make Anggun City and M Avenue disappear from radar.

Bro, mind to share what M Avenue is? tq

Commercial development at M Residence 1.

Do you have the link of the newspaper article or possible to share it here? good to hear that the response is good, this development share complement commercials in Rawang area.

When searching for the article that you have mentioned, I have found another article as below:

JUST several months after the launch, the first phase of the 75-acre LakeClub Parkhome development in Rawang, Selangor — the maiden project of DA Land Sdn Bhd — has been fully sold.

While many new developers would be content to take it easy and bask in the afterglow of a successful launch, DA Land is ready to take on a much more ambitious and complex project, The TWO, on a nearby 51.06 acre site.

Despite the smaller land size, the gross development value (GDV) of the first phase of The TWO is RM1.36 billion — more than double that of LakeClub Parkhome’s GDV of RM500 million.

The TWO is an acronym for theme park resort, wholesale city and outlet mall, DA Land founder and managing director Derek Chew reveals when City&Country caught up with him recently.

The development will have all three of those components, and more — a bold undertaking for a company that has only been in the business for a little more than two years.

“Thus far, DA Land has only handled residential projects. With the launch of The TWO, DA Land will be dabbling in commercial, retail, hospitality and entertainment projects. This is a huge step for the company and I do think we have the reputation, strength and expertise to pull this off well,” says Chew.
Millions of Malaysians and international tourists use the North-South Expressway every year. This is the market we want to capture. — Chew

DA Land plans to publicly announce the project on Nov 11 during a joint-venture signing ceremony with Unusual Entertainment of Singapore, which will be operating the purpose-built entertainment arena at The TWO.

Unusual Development — a firm under the Unusual group of companies — manages the MAX Pavilion at the Singapore Expo, where artistes such as My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, FT Island, Kenny G, Lee Min Ho, Michael Bolton and The Wanted have performed.

According to Chew, the “DA” in DA Land means “big” in Mandarin. Since his foray into property development, Chew, a lawyer by training, has managed to accumulate about 200 acres of land in Rawang.

DA Land’s first project is minutes away from the site of The TWO. LakeClub Parkhome, a leasehold development, will be launched in four phases and is slated to be completed in 2017.

Chew says there are now more developments and infrastructure being built in the Rawang area, with three highways and federal roads being widened. The establishment of hypermarkets such as Tesco and Giant in recent years is another sign of confidence in Rawang.

Chew owns Houz Depot Sdn Bhd, Sunhom Sdn Bhd and Taisun Industries Sdn Bhd, which come under the umbrella of the Houz group of companies. The group has about 10 years’ experience in mall management. DA Retail Management Sdn Bhd was the former retail consultant of AEON, while the group also manages Pelangi Damansara, Selangor, and Odeon, Kuala Lumpur.

A mammoth project

The TWO has an estimated GDV of about RM5 billion. When completed, it will have retail components, including wholesale and premium outlet malls, outdoor and indoor theme parks, a convention centre, a hotel and an office tower. There will also be a residential component coming up in the future.

But is Rawang ready for such a mammoth project? Chew is confident about his project. DA Land acquired the parcel due to its location on the North-South Expressway, he says.

“Millions of Malaysians and international tourists use the North-South Expressway every year. This is the market we want to capture. My aim is to provide a one-stop solution for affordable holidays for families.

“We are really in need of an easily accessible tourist hub with various entertainment options where people can stay and have fun while being able to shop for both branded and affordable goods,” he says.

Among The TWO’s advantages is a direct link to an interchange on the North-South Expressway.

Chew is also targeting the Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya market. The TWO , he notes, is only about 20 minutes from Damansara.

The TWO will be built in four phases. Phase one will be the largest, spanning 14.24 acres. Phase two will take up 9.78 acres and phase three, 11.72 acres. The remaining 8.71 acres will be set aside for phase four.

The indoor theme park at The TWO will more than double the size of Berjaya Time Square’s

The outdoor and indoor theme parks will be located in the heart of the development.

The outdoor theme park will occupy about nine acres while the indoor theme park will have three floors and a total size of 346,800 sq ft, which is larger than Berjaya Time Square’s theme park of about 133,000 sq ft. The group is in the final negotiations for a joint venture with an international theme park management company.

The entrance fee to the theme park will be “very affordable”. “We are thinking of giving customers the option of paying for each ride if they do not wish to buy a day pass,” Chew says.

The total net lettable area (NLA) for phase one will be 1,173 million sq ft. Phase two will have a total NLA of 952,767 sq ft (excluding the two apartment blocks) and phase three, 944,770 sq ft. Phase four is still in the planning stages.
The indoor and outdoor theme parks will be located in the heart of the development

The first phase

The first phase of The TWO will house a retail mall with six floors, two tower blocks comprising a hotel and an office suite, an eight-level car park and a convention and exhibition hall with a seating capacity of 8,000. As part of its corporate social responsibility, the developer will build a 15,000 sq ft public library with reading areas in the mall.

The built-up of the mall and car park in phase one will be 1,651,584 sq ft while the built-up of the two tower blocks will be about 983,194 sq ft.

DA Land will officially launch the retail component of phase one in the next few months. With sizes ranging from 171 to 1,629 sq ft, the retail space will have an indicative price of between RM420,000 and RM5.05 million.

Chew says the response during its road shows in Singapore has been good.

DA Land has indicated that it plans to release only about 45% of phase one. The rest will be kept for future recurring income.

Chew says the group will manage the retail and wholesale components of The TWO and go into joint ventures with more experienced companies for the event, hotel and theme park components.

For the hotel component, DA Land is in final discussions with several international hotel brands to manage the hotel. While Chew is not able to disclose any names at the moment, he says the hotel will be “between three and four stars”.

The hotel at The TWO will house 190 rooms and 722 suites. It will have a grand lobby and facilities that include swimming pools and banquet and meeting rooms. Room sizes are expected to be between 350 and 450 sq ft.

There’s bound to be naysayers for a development of this scale in Rawang. What does he think of those who believe that DA Land might be biting off more than it can chew?

“Well, each time I face a problem, it becomes an incentive to perform even better. We will just focus on doing our best,” he says.

On top of the 200 acres it has in Rawang, DA Land also has three acres in Kota Damansara and another three acres in Kuala Lumpur, opposite the SOGO shopping mall on Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, which Chew acquired over the past decade. These parcels are slated for future commercial developments.

Hope this project will also affect Bukit Beruntung's house prices...

Another one up for Rawang.

My personal opinion is strata retails is quite tough unless you have a really unique concept. (like GM Mall in Klang)

No discrimination on the location, but just wonder how many strata retail is really performing in Klang Valley, other than Sungai Wang Plaza?

To sustain the crowd, anchor tenant play crucial role.

Very unlikely there will be an anchor tenant in this mall.

giler rawang 2500psf alreadym really?. This developer just try their luck to fish hotmoney. rawang population how much?. u think ppl that use highway want to singgah there?.

Hopefully this development will be materialized on the 2018, so by 2020 Rawang will be the best location to stay, better than Puchong I believe )

2500psf for retail lots is not too pricy. Residential yes.

Agree to it but in some circumstances if you sells a retail there will also be a problem maintaining it, even the successful one like sungei wang is not good in the maintainance.

i hope the success for DA land but i have not much of the persuasion towards the project but i do not mind if the could offer attractive packages for some small retails. since i never tried retails before. haha.

have been seeing this banner lately. after watching the video only i know TWO stands for

Theme park resort
Wholesale city
Outlet malls

Office and service apartment as part of the grand plan as well (phase 4)

After seeing sooo many "1" or "one" or "satu", at least now got someone stand out & shout "TWO"!!!

I have never been to JPO, any good?
The promotional video really makes Rawang look like the most strategic location in semenanjung malaysia.
existing owners of Rawang must be very happy.

Flash flood yesterday!! I think they should act fast for the drainage system and road upgrading!!!!!!!!

Oh my, what's the distance from this affected area to The two?

This proj is probably too big for DA land. If economy not doing well,..emm.. i foresee huge problem here.

This post has been edited by MrHunter: Dec 25 2013, 11:37 PM

It's about 2.5km, they should avoid the similar mistake in future time

Hopefully they could invite Six Flags or Universal Studio from United States to invest into this TWO Project. Sure this location (Rawang) will booming!!!. Will be the best place for tourist around the world.

I hope they would. But at times, it's really beyond our control.

2.5km is not too near i guess...

Yes. Road is upgrading now. That area of flood is due to River overflow. the water subsided after few hours. This happened when the rain started more than 12 hours continously non-stop.

you have the point there

Please give them a full support for this project!! Don't let them down. This for Rawang future..

I will bet on Anggun City in this case. At least I am very sure Jusco is next to Anggun City. If DA land is selling at 2500 psf, I think Anggun City is way under value. There will be money to be make.

anyone has further information in this project ? i am from penang, they came to penang to sell, looks like the sales are not moving fast since the pre-launch in Dec 2013..

is this worth to invest as it is 2600 psf in rawang area....sounds like very pricey..

DA Land signs MoU with Sanderson Group for The TWO's Theme Park



The TWO one million sq ft indoor and outdoor theme park will be conceptualised, designed and managed by Sanderson Group, an Australian design and construction firm. Sanderson has completed projects on behalf of Warner Bros, Disney, SeaWorld, Universal Studios and Wet 'n' Wild. Its other prominent projects in Asia include Sunway Lagoon, Singapore Zoo River Safari and Resorts World Sentosa. The themepark will offer water rides, adventure sports, as well as thematic rides, shows and dining experiences.

http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/property/28...theme-park.html
http://www.propertyguru.com.my/property-ne...0mil-theme-park

A proper theme park cost rm300 million minimum. With money, almost anyone could build a theme park. However to attract enough visitors to be profitable is another story. Unless they sign up with a established brand, it will be a uphill battle for them.

Until both parties signed a legally binding agreement, mou doesn't mean anything.

Any update on this project? How is the sale?

they appoint a few property agents to push the products.

A very ambitious Project to transform Rawang. Hope they succeed but I thought Mahsing had plans to develop Rawang also.

Should work together - Mahsing do the Residential and Da handle the Commercial / Retail

Hi, anyone went over to the office in Pelangi Damansara to meet the bank officers today?

Anyone interested in this project still?

But Rawang wor boss...

years ago people used to say .,.'but Puchong wor..'

NO condo in Rawang la.......Many Condo in KV ma......

It could be too big too ambitious....for small player like da land.

I think this project dead. One year already and things have gone silent.

Any progress for this huge project? o.O?

Manyak shopping center developments pull handbreak. Ini rawang two Siao still dare to go ahead. Memang Siao liao.

This post has been edited by HELLO HELLO: Feb 23 2015, 01:26 AM

Oh? This the two really still going ahead?

hows the take up rate?

I thought this project sudah mati lo..

How's their lake club homes? Mati also? Actually this developer from where?

Huh? This project really abandoned d?

Or just the progress is slow?

Developer is DA Land..

Not easy, its a self sustain development. crowd attraction is low. Same like icity when kick starting

I also didn't hear any news from this Project. seems like not much progress. Land still vacant with no sign or activities. I "sense" and "smell" another Cabut Lari case. Hopefully no money being disburse yet.

My contractor show me his tenant renovation list in all the upcoming new malls. Not include existing mall. Sibeh manyak n scary. My contractor Also scare later cannot Kutip payment. All cabut lari. Very Cb Siao Liao.

boss, wht other malls pull handbreak? i know some delay. I always say mall oversupply but developer always wanna build integrated with retail

nvm. i believe its wrong product and timing. just change the plan. location wise is good.

I think dis project high chance to fail..

its like a one stop centre in middle of no where at plus high way

The site's location not bad. Can change to some kind of integrated or gng development... tourism game... let the big brothers play lar..

So far any progress for the site?

reviving?

People starts to forget about this huge project in Rawang

after success of Mitsui Outlet Park? dare dare go.

DA Land chief executive officer Derek Chew said the project was created with a different segment of tourists in mind.

"We want to attract European, American, Japanese, Korean and Singaporean tourists, in addition to local tourists.

"The number of European, American and Japanese tourists in other malls are relatively low. The TWO was created with them in mind – sun and water, one-stop tourist shopping hub for local produce, delicacies, art and souvenir and a unique indoor and covered outdoor theme parks.

"They will be able to experience a fun and wholesome shopping experience, in addition to the nearby very rich eco-tourism resources," he said.

He added that the TWO will be recession-resistant as it is about discount shopping and a weather-proof theme park. – June 1, 2015.


RECESSION-RESISTANT?? 1st time i heard from property developer.GENG!!!

I think they should concentrate in attract the local first before the foreigner

Haha this is like third party R&R of north south highway. F&b biz will be good during big days.

They choose the right highway to build this mix development! Only PLUS highway no increase in price!
