Over 500 north-bound buses to use TBS Bandar Tasik Selatan from Nov 1, no more Pudu Sentral – SPAD

Those who frequent Pudu Sentral (formerly known as Puduraya) for bus trips take note. Over 500 north-bound express buses using the city centre base will be moving to the Terminal Bersepadu Selatan (TBS) in Bandar Tasik Selatan come November 1.
The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) said the move was expected to reduce congestion in Kuala Lumpur and would affect bus riders heading to Perak, Penang, Kedah and Perlis, The Star reported.
“Under this move, 545 of the 635 northbound express buses operating from Pudu Sentral will be diverted away from the city centre. This will help reduce the traffic congestion faced by commuters in the Pudu Sentral vicintiy and in the long term decongest the central business district in the city,” a SPAD spokesman said.

世界第二高 极度抢手 KL118刚打桩近租光 (World's second tallest, KL118 still in piling stage but almost fully rented out)


2015-11-02 07:30

（吉隆坡1日讯）建成后将是世界第二高的摩天楼“吉隆坡118大楼”（KL118），目前在展开地基工程就几乎被“租光”！

可靠消息告诉《南洋商报》，KL118大楼目前在进行地底结构及打桩工程，之后才展开大楼结构主要工程，预计2019年才能竣工。惟其“抢手”程度惊人，目前大楼各个楼层大部分已被“认租”。

楼高644公尺的KL118也被称为“独立世代”，建竣后也将是东南亚最高的摩天楼。

内定国际六星级酒店伙伴

消息说，该大楼已内定了国际六星级酒店伙伴，绝对不会陷入大楼空置，无人问津的困境。

另外，韩国《经济时报》日前报道，由韩国三星物产（Samsung C&T Co）及UEM集团成立的财团，已成功竞标KL118总值8亿4200美元（约36亿令吉）的建筑工程。

国民投资机构独立创投私人有限公司（PNB Merdeka Ventures）是国民投资机构的独资子公司，也是KL118发展商。

国投作为大楼业主，根据早期安排，其中36楼将充作国投总部办公楼。

于2013年7月20日正式在中国湖南长沙动工、计划建设楼高838公尺的“远大天空之城”一旦竣工，将取代哈里发塔成为“世界第一高楼”，惟这计划已被搁置。

建六星酒店观景塔保安滴水不漏

消息告诉本报，除了拥有大楼结构主要工程招标，还有其他如机械及电器等工程也在招标，至于建筑工程所涉及的内外交通规划则已完成。

“除了国际六星级酒店，这栋大楼也有属于酒店管理的酒店套房，顶层设有一个属于旅游景点的观景塔。酒店业者与发展商共同参与大楼内部设计。

“大致上，大楼完成后，已经不愁没有租户，因为已有内定的商业伙伴。”

提到保安问题，消息指出，KL118的保安系统是采用美国高端保安系统，几乎做到滴水不漏的防护。

“它采用了最先进尖端的保安技术，从防震、防爆、防洪样样做足，而且单是专家顾问团名单，已叫人大开眼界。”不过，他拒绝透露有关顾问团成员。

“你可想到的弱点，都已经被列入保安防范措施中。过去一些大楼建筑所忽略的，也都在这大楼的发展中受到关注。”

据悉，大楼停车场并没建在建筑物的底层，也是保安考量。



地下隧道成本高

除此之外，消息说，这座摩天大楼的交通规划与传统规划不同，且已顺利完成，不过成本很高。

“进出大楼的路段总共涉及4个地下隧道，驾车人士还未看到大楼，就已进入驾往大楼的隧道。

“从隧道出来就到了大楼停车处。他们离开时也是直接离开，不再途径大楼范围。”

目前全球最高摩天楼是位于迪拜的哈里发塔，其楼高828公尺，于2010年竣工。


If this is true then it is definitely good news for nearby developments.

Gud progress...

wow, fully rented out

http://www.theedgeproperty.com.my/content/...st-plaza-rakyat

GUANGDONG Debao Land Co Ltd, a property development company based in Guangdong, China, plans to invest in the long abandoned Plaza Rakyat project in Jalan Pudu.

According to Tan Sri Abdul Samad Alias, a major shareholder of Profit Consortium Sdn Bhd — the developer of Plaza Rakyat — Guangdong Debao will acquire equity in Profit Consortium, but the stake is still being worked out.

“If not, how can we get the money to fund the development [of Plaza Rakyat]? We will negotiate how much Guangdong Debao will purchase later,” says Abdul Samad.

Last Friday, he represented Profit Consortium in signing the sale and purchase agreement (SPA) for the Plaza Rakyat project with Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL), which was represented by KL Mayor Datuk Mohd Amin Nordin Abdul Aziz.

The RM700 million price tag for the 15.3-acre PLAZA RAKYAT site translates to RM1,050psf. In 2010, Gamuda Bhd paid RM820psf or RM105 million to Wearne Brothers Properties Pte Ltd for the Robertson land, which is just next door to Plaza Rakyat. - See more at: http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/citynew...h.3LHl8NY9.dpuf

RM 1050psf is quite cheap considering a few parcels of land within city center were transacted between RM 3-4k psf recently.

http://www.propertyguru.com.my/property-fo...-robertson-6863

So fast asking for 1700psf haha, who is the owner ? Lol

Crazy . If can fetch 1400 psf I am happy

1700psf? seriously

For new Tower fully furnished, Gamuda already selling 1700psft .....

After bbcc, 2000psf
After 118, 2 500psf
After trx, 3000psf

Waaaaaa 😅😅😅😅
Good for buyer

pasar rakyat leh?

No put so much hope on it.....

imo pasar rakyat is an eyesore, hazard, etc. and will give negative if not fixed

Will definitely be an eye sore
Robertson is not the best investment
But if can get the phase one earlier, rental should be quite alright

After Plaza Rakyat, 3200psf

Hi guys , last Saturday the electrolux warehouse sales in the school jaya there ,is up to 70% discount ,anyone here grab good stuffs there?

Wah!! Can see TR, BBCC, KL118 & Plaza Rakyat from the picture. Nice.

the world's tallest buildings have risen on the eve of economic downturns.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyscraper_Index

After barisan najis lost, 1500 psf

Look at cyberjaya after lost to pkr under najis.

anybody has any idea what is the take up rate for tower 2?
little bird told me 40% which is kinda surprising.

if it's true, what went wrong and why?
any insights?

Gamuda fails big time in every bit in the marketing, as simple as that!

Why blame it to marketing ? They just have to price it correctly it will sell well. The other tower they did not do much marketing and it is mostly sold !

I would say it's greed overtook the rational mind.

isn't pricing determined by S&M department?

i actually shared the same view as bb68.
i thought they underpriced their tower 1.

Well I think more precisely it should be a pricing problem than a marketing problem for the later launched tower.

And I thought the tower numbering it's not tower 1 for the earlier launch tower ?

1st phase mostly taken up by its own staff just like many other developments.

I came across a full age advertisement in newspaper for TR. know what, it a BIG letter "R" hanging on a door handle. That pretty much 90% of the whole page telling you nothing at all about the development. What kind of marketing is this?

leave it to reader to guess? Roti? Rosmah?

This post has been edited by bb68: Dec 7 2015, 03:08 PM

That's called class !

Did you try to "open the door" by flipping to the next page ? Maybe the details are on the next page.

haha i did. nothing...

I believe weak market sentiment & high price tag may have contributed to the poor sales but how do other nearby projects perform? Opus, Bukit Bintang 101, Tribeca & etc. I have heard very little about them.

Btw, those interested to know more about Gamuda's current & future projects can grab a copy of the Edge this week. A special edition on The Edge Property Excellence Awards. Many news on other developers as well.

I am same side as you. Kochin and bb68 are on the opposite side.

Why tropicana, ecoworld projects can break record high
I thought it is caused of marketing

My friend told me he when for Midvalley property expo. Sibeh no pipu and quiet. Once he goes in All agents from different project Rush over surrounded him up to introduce their project. Market now ini macam ask u scare or not.

Now some property Guru group From ptxx, skxx said good time to buy when property market is quiet...

Last time when property hot. Ask pipu Fast fast buy don't lose out.... If not next time very expensive cannot Afford to buy..... Cakap Orang pun them, Cakap ghost pun them.

When property very collapse those buy when hot and quiet also mati. And they come out again said now is the real golden opportunity to buy buy buy property. And totally forget Liao how they make pipu mati in first 2 round.

If property Lagi drop or stagnant no move up. 3rd round also kena jialat mati. Then those guru they will come out a new tag line to buy buy buy don't miss the last boat... And goes on

Actually lucky that their marketing suck. good quality, many facilities, good maintenance etc etc

if not how can someone get the early robertson phase <1000psf?

Chow Chee Wah. Gamuda land MD said Robertson Mall will have cover bridge from MRT BB and LRT plaza Raykat ( Plaza Rakyat is link with MRT Warisan)


You can check theedge

Today me call their sales office. The have confirmed this too.

This post has been edited by tikaram: Dec 7 2015, 09:35 PM

Wah. Become double dragons linked mrt lrt property. 1st one in malaysia.

Finally got one ethical taikor comes out to speak something true

sell flower sure say flower fragant la. bring you to holland also so so dont know.

Of course price is one of the factors that affect the sales. If the South tower is priced from 1100-1200 psf, I believe the sales will be much better than now but first phase buyers will be unhappy lor. So you can't please everybody.

But this Gamuda Land is not the kind of developer that advertise heavily, give a lot of freebies or reduce price in order to push sales. They believe if they deliver good products & add extra value to the products, when the time is right, people will buy eventually. At least, this is what I see in their other projects like Horizon Hills & Bandar Botanic.

This post has been edited by KaFai: Dec 8 2015, 10:51 AM

But can someone from Gamuda Land update us on the sales of South Tower so far? Only 40%?

This post has been edited by KaFai: Dec 8 2015, 10:50 AM

Anybody going?

Go for what purpose ?

For the free lunch and lucky draw?

And meeting pretty girls?

Correct also lar. Maybe some socialises networking. ...
But I think not many people will go...lol

kinda too

I dunno about others but I know about Opus since I bought Opus. Opus tower 1 sold out and tower 2 is 70% sold. I am thinking of buying another Opus unit. How much is Robertson selling now psf?

Miss d boat

Not sure. Last I heard was around 1400psf but that was 1 year ago. Hopefully someone can clarify on this.

Wow Opus tower 2 is 70% sold? That is pretty awesome. But hardly can see the updates in LYN. Not many buyer from LYN I think.

Wah second unit of Opus. Must be damn confident.

Too bad. First prize 1 unit of Robertson suite.

Dun tell me u r d winner

Opus owners same like Vipod klcc owners.very quiet..i tried to gather owners to whatsapp group. Only got a handful. Nobody really cares when have a lot of money i guess. I am not at their level so i still care. Lol.

Really? I got a friend gather with his gang to buy one unit of opus.


I don't think they're in the level as you say. Lol

Opus surrounding is a bit run down. Only advantage is nearer to 118 compare to robertson. In my opinion, robertson has more catalys. Nearer to BB,nearby pudu new developmnt & plaza rakyat revival.

Can pm me their numbers? I officially booked another unit just now in Opus.

Pm you their numbers lol... But they're really not at the same high league as you.
Anyway, ill let them know first, see how.

We are all same2 bro. Unless i am Vincent Tan or Syed Mokhtar or in their league, we r all the same. Hehe

So how much is Opus selling now?

Can foresee this condo will be full of expat. Macam Scott garden ... Banyak ayam import

opus sales office had china and taiwam investors just walk in with luggage bags asking what is there to buy. when asked politely why they were in such a rush to come directly from the aiport they opened the bag and said the cash for the units are here...

china chinese and taiwanese really no joke..hw many unitsss they grab?

Haha. Yeah opus sales guy told me. Good buy at opus oh.

Seriously? Brought 1 mil cash to buy property?

Sounds like money laundering.

Not money laundering. But press the poor to work for them with super low pay. So they gain big profits from there. Typical style of China 暴发户。 Nothing to admire or respect

Any news so far on the sales level and take up of second tower?

The nearby BBCC residential units are reported to be selling for an indicative price range of RM1,500 - RM1,700 psf.

This is good news for buyers of Robertson especially those who went in early.

Hope this thread is more "alive" and keep the constructive discussion ongoing

thought bbcc saying avg RM1300psf?
how did 1.5 to 1.7 come about?
any links to share please?

http://www.thestar.com.my/business/busines...ating-kls-icon/

You are right. My recollection failing me these days. Just saw the news few days ago. Should have been RM,1,300 - RM1,500psf. Still good news for Robertson owners.

I'm not vested with Gamuda, just a small declaration

Outskirt kl pj, suburb kl pj areas new project pricing so kisiao high even higher than some kl city project that launch 1 -3 years ago. New Kl city centre development got no choice just lagi shoot up the price lor.

This post has been edited by HELLO HELLO: Jan 26 2016, 09:28 AM

Is this price fully furnished or unfurnished?

Actually it's quite hard to compare without knowing the full package of bbcc:- furnished / unfurnished? car park provided? How much rebate? What are the facilities?

Look like Mall schedule can open @ 2017.

Indeed. The price is just indicative at the moment. Will get to know more details soon as they will be launching sometime in 2Q 2016.

Another interesting point to compare is in terms of the absolute price. The smaller the unit the pricier it will be in terms of PSF, and Vice-Versa.

Nonetheless, it depends on the developer to right the size of the unit to lure the target market and given the current market condition.

I believe they will look at the surrounding area (Robertson included) to benchmark the price and to ensure it stays competitive.

Just my opinion.

Shaping up nicely. Finally past the basement stage.

Heading into 2016. Felt like it is another step closer to completion. 1Q 2018 ain't that far away.

Keep the photos flowing. Good to see the progress. Thanks

Nobody seem to take interest in the sales of the South Tower. The South Tower should also be about there in psf figure right ? And what's the % sold ?

This post has been edited by puchongite: Jan 27 2016, 09:42 AM

I tot we have GL staff in the forum. Hello~~~~

Anyone?

nice keep up the good work of posting progress pict

Was there a proposed walkway linking Robertson directly to the MRT station? Can anyone confirm this?

Can't seem to see it based on this map retrieved from Gamuda's official website.

Which MRT u referring to, MERDEKA or BKT BINTANG ?

LRT Plaza Rakyat is just across the road, and there will be a tunnel link to Merdeka station by KVMRT. (under construction, see photo attached)

Hear say there will a elevated walkway link to Bkt Bintang Station too by The Robertson.
