She says the group also plans to launch two projects in 1Q2017 — an office tower called Ceylon Suites and a mixed-use development on Jalan Klang Lama.

Ceylon Suites, which will comprise small office units, will occupy about one acre in Bukit Ceylon. “We did a survey and learnt that people who work in downtown Kuala Lumpur would like to have a space for them to hold brainstorming sessions with their business partners after work,” says Siew. “We are offering small offices, like about 500 sq ft, with facilities such as a business lounge, meeting hub and conference hall.”

The Jalan Klang Lama mixed-use development will sit on an eight-acre parcel near a Public Bank branch. This project, Siew says, will comprise an office tower, art college, retail space, serviced apartments and small office/home office units.

“Currently, the land is occupied by squatters and old factories,” she says. “The project is at the planning stage and we are still in talks with the art college.”
