MCT selected wrong person lease it

from latest visit, can see that many shop at L1 above already closed down and many vacant unit..

MCT definately need to find some good profile tenant to survive...
don't want such a good place to be another SS2 mall..

MCT trying their luck again with MCT mall below reo.. manager will be the guy who revamped Avenue K. im still sure that the mall will fail due to oversupply in the area..this 1 city mall is a strata mall which usually fail la..

Not tenant choose the wrong place to rent?

hopefully this will not happen at future SkyPark @ CBJ...

Betul kah ini? heard many FnB close down as mention below.. See the video inside all empty know this mall will die la.. Jus like i city see the lights, how many times wana see those lights?

Skypark will be managed by the new boss..

Well, even themines 2 also the same. Way to parking's road too narrow and a lot of scratch marks.

sorry, where is the roof top restaurant?

On the 10th floor, ppl can walk on the thick glass to see the mall's interior below- this is the outstanding part of the mall, other than that nothing special.

Ppl usually go there for F&B, movies & gym, other than that nothing much to do. I think they should bring in a hypermarket so that ppl can shop for groceries. Not sure whether this D'Grocer opened or not?

Parking still cheap la, 1st 3 hours RM1! cheaper than Main Place.

Even the staff admit that they go to PH for chap fan as the food there is expensive!

I love to see malls dying. Its capitalism doing its work

its only the roof that is "slightly more happening", the rest is dead in one city mall..

Main place wont die in the near future bcos:
1) it is located nearer to residential area, surrounded by existing population
2) few access road in and out
3) above all, ANCHOR TENANT that one city doesnt have.

well, you can see most mall with anchor tenant (with supermarket, or cinema) wont die tat fast. those without anchor tenant die faster.

anyway, the design concept of one citymall really not appealing and dark, dont really feel like walking around the mall.

Mct should hire consultant to manage the mall

no KFC , no Mcd , No Texes Chicken..., really nothing to do in one city ~

Got things to do la bro, eat, exerciese, go for a movie or relax in Starbucks la! I heard Maybank is opening a branch there, so if it is not happening in the future will they open there?

work in one city office there for so long , only entertainment is go ground floor blow water with MCT leng lui sales gal there

No rubbish food are good for health

no zap fan there , mamak and that ubi kayu also expensive....
really sad place

Good ma, can flirt with leng luis, so u will not leave your Co!

I think more biz will open in The Place soon, so just have to wait & c.

Drive to PH for chap fan lo! The Uncle Jack fried chicken rice & Di Naina mamak fried noodles & rice oso very cheap in Giant!

Attached thumbnail(s)

in the middle of no where

Why sure reject by SC bro?

Cos they must be able to show good rental yield to determine d cap rate..2 4-5 star hotels thr also sounds like a killer to me.. If occupancy is low, yet again sc will not allow high valuation for the reit... Even sacz mall in Shah alam trying for a reit n i think it wont be approved..

2020 ma, another 5 yrs for MCT turnaround.

In my memory, MCT has not done anything which I think is iconic enough that blows ppl's mind
Their USJ One Avenue did not stand out, no one talks about it. The Once City just meh...

Not sure how their cyber project gonna turn out.

Sure or not... looks empty from outside.. macam nobody do reno

I like the hand shredder. LOL

they should make it as IT and handphone mall , get Direct D in and big big IT retailer in.
doing more IT event and game event maybe can bring some crowed

ubi kayu now really freaking expensive, even more expensive than 15% SST rice

SC only need some under table money and settled
As long as they are not in something like 1MDB

Too many IT malls around KV already.

lowyat for KL , PJ digital mall for PJ , one city may target subang n puchong lolz

i dont think ppl like go to lowyat for jam and expensive parking if got choice

Food here is pricey. Only good thing is cheap parking.

The cheapest food here is probably subway sandwich promo.

The rest is expensive and taste is so-so.

The upper floor food stalls is dead. You see also you dare not go in. Like ghost town. The rooftop restaurant is nothing to shout.

Folks with high heel shoes should be careful walking on those plastic wood planks. It is an ankle breaker. It is definitely not a Grade A office environment.

have to change leasing management , the properties crowd will come back... i been there in early time, still got many shop open... last month go, almost like dead town on top few floor... leasing is important for the mall...

Not totally empty la bro, got some ongoing biz there la, latest is Guardian. As I said, got to be patient & wait lo!

hear that rooftop glass crack few time

it is in the middle of no where.
most of us pj folks won't purposely go so far for nothing.
that mall has nothing to offer us that closer malls don't have.
weekdays it is pretty quiet, but terrible jam going home if you stay too long after 4pm.
weekends usually crowded shit.
that was few months back, since they charge for parking haven't bothered going.

the management got issues.
when my company wanna do event there got rejected because our theme is not what they want.
according to the event agency they rejected alot of events.

The area not that crowd ,management still choose business ??? some more the ground floor area kind of hot

the roof top glass seem aging and not well take care...

the event we wanted to do back in january

Yah no property no hand too

anchor tenant is always the rule for complex to survive.

Went there last week, just to see, because it was raining outside and didnt want to drive much in the rain.

My goodness, was that all? Lower ground all f&b, then upper floor mostly empty? Just one strip of 'electronics, hardware, etc'.. really empty.

The bridge: one comment. Who designed it? Got one stupid scupper drain exactly at the front sliding door, too deep, it stopped my child's stroller. Had to carry it just to cross that stupid small drain.

Which the non-halal? I am quite curious to know

only root top is non halal

really? "ambassador" said "too many non-halal"

hmm dont think that is the main reason, many places also cater non halal f&B majority but still doing great. JayaOne is one good example. I think is the management that is the problem..

Been to PJ digital Mall before, the price are not that attractive

This might be the mirror image of skypark cyberjaya later... Pray hard it wont be so...

It's quite clear. He can't even accept 1% of Alla food. Think he from isis.

I think even all Halal or non-Halal, still very less ppl visit the place regardless of race and religion background.

I believe tenant mix also falls into management responsibility, as management has a leasing team to look for tenant to join in.
By the way, which as the many non-halal restaurants in One City?

Sorry but where is this mall located?

Ah Cheng Laksa
Am Sande
Am Sande Restaurant
BMS Organics
Charlie Chaplin
deHouse
Hongdae-Mun
Inaho Sushi
Khrua Thai
Koufu Trendy Chinese Cuisine
Master Room
Secret Recipe
Sky Palace Fine Chinese Cuisine
The Boardroom
The Voice
Walnut Tree Cafe

So many non-halal?

U think only. Too bad. For him. he just don't want to see it n ignore only. Always in halal n Alla food only. U discuss with him Macam no discuss 1. Waste gas only.

Include :

Old Town White Coffee
Gloria Jeans
Subway
Towards the end lot ground floor...is small food court (Station One something)

Just because of 3 or 4 restaurants selling non-Halal, suddenly one city become 1 race mall.

Ambassador, perhaps you should hang out more in putrajaya.

even korea food and steamboat there also no pork

for many malaysian muslims the meaning of non halal is NOT food with pork, but food that is served at an eatery that does not have that HALAL sticker

Sticker important, very important. Remember this.

Well, I still see many muslim folks patronise TGIF and American chillis. No halal sticker also (No pork but they serve liquor and thus, no way a halal cert can issue for restaurant that serve alcohol).

Are they less muslim for patronising such restaurant ? I rather leave it to individual and their belief. To me, at the end of the day, it's between you and god. Don't blame the food.

the management body is the one that secure tenants, if there is a lack of universal tenants then it means the management is not fit enough to run and maintain a resourceful of tenants in their mist especially anchor tenants.

Tony Romas, TGIF are famous among company's favorite gathering place with employees of all races join.

Maybe you can advise Jakim to put up a sticker there

Ah yes youre right

Perhaps I missed stating that sometimes no STICKER also ok as long as that eatery's got some Agong paper to 'share out' with _____ (fill in blanks you-know-I-know-who)

I would like to know those shops are sold to individuals or managed by the developer? If sold to individual, please tell me how do these people get chicken rice shop mcd,kfc, to come in. And even if by the developer itself, I am pretty sure they have no way to attract good tenants with their bad attitude...

Last time when I went there to see the rooftop, there is some so called vvip event there at the rooftop, and they stop all the people from going up to the rooftop, and keep chasing us down, so on that day itself means all the restaurant up there cannot do business? This is so damn funny, I wonder how the restaurant owners think. If this is not management problem I really dont know what it is.

If the event is so damn vvip, go la held it somewhere private.... they think that rooftop glass is so damn special only vvip can step on it.

I went there couple times in weekday. Found car park almost full. Difficult to get parking. Later discovered they got DHL, Fuji Xerox office shifted into MCT tower. Guess now the traffic in the mall improved a lots.

Starbucks is there as well. Heard MBB coming as well.

Yup, you are right, in a mall, what is required is restaurants that selling junk foods and chemical drinks. This is to attract younger generations.

I spoke to their SA once & he said his Co. acknowledged the mistake made, therefore their strategy for their future mall will be different. In fact, he said they didnt do much reno to their current office as they are expected to move their new office after 5 years.

but this doesnt curb the current mall, any turnaround plans from them with management to boost the current mall?

yes.that true

a few logistic company located thr.. mall cant jus depend on office n apartment hotel guest as the business needs thousands more daily to sustain.. I still think MC mall will fail given 2 toll plaza nearby hehe...lets wait n see 1 City already fail...

No comments from SA on how they will turn OC around, once it is already structured this way, it would be difficult to turn it around, although not impossible.

Offices there filling up. With banking coming in, the traffic will be improved further. I guess u got to see how things change.

If MCT execute the traffic arrangement and their new mall well. It will be good. Their name on the card.

Honestly, i also feel not many halal foods there (regardless of certified halal with sticker). Some malaysians r ok with halal without sticker. Tgif is one example that will never get halal certificate because serving alcohol in their restaurant.

But honestly also i believe one city mall is failing because lame tenants. Luckily got cinema n gym. If not die faster.

I do know that the office has good tenants BUT u can have a few hotel, apartment n office above n the mall can still underperform as u need crowds from elsewhere..great example is tropicana mall..

Boss,

U travel all the way thr for tht mall ah? the tenants so lame cos its a strata mall.. MP across the road is managed by RN n can see the vast difference.. Comes back to my point, since MP got many good FnB/fashion tenants, i dnt see any tenants moving over to 1 city mall.. too many overlap/malls beside each other..

but too bad even they have their own cinema and gym, the demand and traffic of people visit there also didn't really improve

Cinema can help footfall but if mall is boring, then ppl jus go thr watch movie n go home.. best example is space u8 jelutong n harbour place Klang..

I was born and raised in subang jaya and have props in subang jaya as well. But i think most people assume i am a kajang boy and thats it. Anyway u have a point when u comment about MP vs 1city. 1city could have been a great shopping mall. Sad wor.

Nvm we still have dpulse, and pangaea, weekend got ioi putrajaya and mitsui outlet park.
Opsssss forgot to mention centraus

i believe damen will attract more crowed

Yeap good frontage..Now they got mct mall which is a whole new mall...i still duno what they are thinking..why would they build a strata mall n later on build their own mall next door?

In the usj retail scene, usj 1 area n especially damen is where tenants wana be cos tht area is central to all of usj n subang with lrt n brt nearby hence jam may be less..

I too believe that damen will do well.. digital mall still half dead or died?

fail la this mall, i went once dun wan go there twice d, food not cheap, and its out of the way oso, this mall oso fail to catch local catchment summore, dunno how to suceed,

no pork is one of the killer~

Maybe because the mall design kinda narrow and long? Feel wierd when u walk inside it?

design not big issue, just no talent come in , you do nothing inside and food there expensive and no pork..

taipan n ss 15 is near by , pack like sardin

I believe one of the main reaons is because there is no hypermarket or dept store like Aeon, Parkson, Giant or Tesco. Ppl go there for food or movies or gym then nothing much to do after that. I would rather go to a mall that has a hypermarket/dept store to window shopping then can go for movies/food.

If OC can have this hypermarket/dept store, I believe they will do better. Not sure whether D'Grocer opened or not at The Place?

D'Grocer is MCT own grocer...

DG oso their internal brand? So ambitious ka want to launch so many own brands?

Gym , PremiumX Cinema ,Hotel also thier internal brand

SA told me there will be no internal brands in MCT Mall, I guess they think it is enough to have it in OC only!

can u imagine how that sounds? will be hypermarket,cinema etc in the mall next door competing with their internal brand in 1 city.. this mall needs to bring in the RM8 makan shops now tht it is failing..
