In a surprising turn of events, pets are no longer permitted within the enclosed indoor premises of Sunway Square Mall to ensure a safe, hygienic, and comfortable environment for all visitors.

After a few days of online debate among netizens and a statement made by a state exco, the mall issued a statement to announce a change to their pet-friendly policy.

It said that following the state directive reaffirmed by State Local Government and Tourism Committee Chairman, Datuk Ng Suee Lim, Sunway Square Mall has updated its pet policy with immediate effect.

In compliance with this directive, pets are now only allowed at the designated outdoor pet-friendly park (Squarrel’s Playground) located at Sunway South Quay Lake.

Pets may accompany their owners when transiting between the mall car park (B3 & B4 and the designated outdoor zone, with guidance from the mall’s security team.

“We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank the community for their understanding as we comply with the state directive while continuing to serve all visitors with care and respect.”

he said the policy was always in place.

Salah DAP tak bagi.

Meanwhile MidValley safe, as MidValley is KL Address.

Salahan kerajaan negeri PuAS....oh wai

Tak ada siapa paksa nak pergi pun. Yang tak bagi tu DAP.

Kasi chan la they gonna recognise UEC in 6 months time yo.

Bodo inside f&b also want to bring dog. Memang stupider than dog

All jokes aside, this is a very bad idea to be honest.

1. Those pet will shit and pee anywhere. Even if the owner clean it up but it still leave some stain, that is if the owner is a responsible type. Those who're not, they'll just leave it.

2. Dangerous dog breed like pitbull, I don't care what people said about their pitbull is obedient or good dog or soft hearted. Still won't take any chances with them, those breeds won't stop when they attack someone or other pets. Imagine the dog attacking some kids, stitches, bruises, probably lost some body parts.

Conclusion, this is a terrible idea.

Larangan bawa haiwan ke pusat beli belah masih kekal - Exco

Larangan membawa haiwan peliharaan ke pusat beli-belah di Selangor masih kekal, kata Exco Kerajaan Tempatan dan Pelancongan negeri Datuk Ng Suee Lim.

Beliau berkata dasar berkenaan masih berkuat kuasa, namun kerajaan negeri akan meneliti semula garis panduan sedia ada dalam menjaga keharmonian masyarakat.

“Kita di Selangor sebagai satu negeri maju dan bertaraf antarabangsa, semua langkah-langkah terkait dengan polisi antarabangsa, kita cuba akan teliti. Seperti di negara tertentu (dasar mereka) mereka memang mesra (haiwan peliharaan), boleh bawa haiwan ke sini, ke sana, masuk ke pusat beli-belah dan sebagainya.

“Bagaimanapun, berdasarkan budaya kita yang pelbagai kaum dan sebagainya, kita perlu teliti sama ada semua langkah mereka itu boleh atau sesuai diguna pakai di semua tempat, di pusat beli-belah dan sebagainya,” katanya.

Ng berkata demikian kepada pemberita selepas menyertai Op Terjah Pembersihan Awam di Seksyen 7 di sini hari ini yang turut dihadiri Pengarah Urusan KDEB Waste Management Sdn Bhd (KDEBWM) Datuk Ramli Mohd Tahir

Beliau mengulas tindakan sebuah pusat beli-belah di Lembah Klang yang membenarkan pengunjung membawa haiwan peliharaan masuk ke premis itu.

Booooooop

b40 not the target market of the mall also

exco DAP sudah keluar fatwa
walanon semua kena ikut

😂 lol

Betul2 Madani DNA

meanwhile mamak ade kucing duduk atas kerusi tak bising pulak

owai

wonder if ONLY CATS allowed, amacam result

Mall is a business premise which under Local State/City Government jurudisction.

If PH state government and the DAP ADUN fella cannot fix the lemon law, so voter have to fix the politician.

Is like someone complain why allow to wear sexy into the restaurant, therefore ban the sexy dress.

even Lawyer question, where is the written law no pet allow in the Mall? Is the Mall even JAKIM certified?

Yeah right state rule that's set by PH themselves.

Like we can't complain on R&R policies because they are rules right?

little Napoleon is on duty. Must have received call from MBSJ.

u din know cats? they are chill as F . if they decide to scratch u , means u are sohai

sos : ayam 3 cat owner

sit too long in the office room until otak rosak

DAP will lose selangor kekwa

Megah Rise Mall still pet friendly, so what's the issue with Sunway Square Mall?

The mall mgmt dont dare to take full responsibilities if accidents like this occur…

boycott

takut jadi issue lowyat2... but this time with with anjing

As a pet owner (i have cats).

nobody gonna get responsible if incident happen at public what. is called public place right?

taisei
i fully support the ban
next target : jaya one

No point explaining it, half of ktards will only see it through R&R lenses.

The issue is with Megah Rise, Jaya One and etc going against state rule <-- according to DAP

So can expect domino effect on those malls once this precedent is set. No more doggo in mall soon

Kito sudah menang

Waiting for someone to viral this megah rise and plaza arkadia.

This one?

Pet owner even had that grin after seeing the pee and ignoring it.

Cat is chill because they have the freedom to socialize with other cats and move around freely.

Meanwhile, dogs here are stuck within their owner's properties 24/7, not being trained properly or being walked outside often.

Like America, most dogs are chill too.

Ahaks.

and clearly this is mid valley ...

Good, was eating there that day and couldn't stand the constant screaming from poodle and smaller dogs

Dogs are not allowed inside shopping malls in Australia as well, only licensed service dog are allowed

I'm more to safety and cleanliness.

Imagine someone name Tyrone bring his pet pitbull to mall, such breed of dog is known to be aggressive.

Also don't know if pet owner will clean pet feces/pee when the animal decided to do business on the spot.

Overall, ban pets, dogs, cats, birds, to be fair.

actually jaya one has a dedicated section for pets . just cover few food establishment, n open air areas

the line cannot be crossed, and its just a shy away from the exit . if remember correctly ends until the gigi coffee .

nobody brings pet up into the shopping area .

Won't. PMX already scammed them.

It's not the whole mall for those you mentioned

Certain sections. For Jaya one The square is. Certain parts of the school where got pet grooming it is. The whole school is not

Same with the mines and paradigm, for mines some floors are designated for pet entrance and exit

Also they could also have complained. They had to spend extra to comply with this regulation but someone else come to the scene and didn't need to

They all bingai what to do

Must be that pitbulls and peeing on the floor incident

Pet also can racing nowadays

for #1 other countries can implement it well and make plenty of pet friendly malls, why cant we?

but yes i agree #2 that large dogs shouldnt be allowed, especially if known dangerous breeds

it's weird how it took a PuAS member to say this....that also proves you never and can't travel outside of malaysia
because outside of malaysia, pets are allowed EVERYWHERE

they have strict pet laws and the pets are allowed to be brought everywhere

Point is this is the kind pet owners that we have over here. Not like the sample demographic is gonna be all that different for Mid Valley mall vs. Sunway mall goers.

Unless the mall enforce all pets have to be inside pet carriers or wear diapers, this scenario is pretty much expected. Nobody want to step/slip on some animal urine/feces when going to the mall.

Dont agree to this policy..malaysian are not matured enough (and I meant majority. Not all).

Ppl these days stooped down to low as animals 🤦‍♀️ can’t help it

Someone has to open pet restaurant and see whether the pet owners will consume their pet food or not

There is no written law because mall it is under commercial license and there is loophole for pets allowed indoors subject to tenant agree or not

I believe this U turn is not because of the public but more of tenants making noise because they have the policy to subject whether their pets allow in their store as they have monitor that policy

Hiding behind state directive just plain cowardice and to save face

There is no jakim certified but soon another money making venture for them just to certify, comply and audit ventures

Outdoor no issue the problem is indoor hence why Megah Rise and Jaya one no issue because it is only permitted in open areas and outdoor

PMX can promise anything just to win votes but as usual cannot deliver because he is just power hungry only

Matured and responsible that's the keyword.

good decision to uturn.
many owner cant control their doggo.

even farker owner let their doggo roam everywhere without being leashed. cakap his dog tak gigit orang, main2 saja. apa lanjiao

puak menang

Not as simple as that 🤦‍♀️ because Malaysians are not tolerant and civic minded enough to respect other freedoms

Best example when a car accident happen in front of you 1st thing is to check whether the people are safe

Nope instead they will take out their phones and being busybodies start recording the scene

That’s why Malaysia is not developed country for that reason 🤦‍♀️ only 10% are developed enough to move the country while 90% are the ones making noises

Meanwhile in kuching... We have on mall that's pet friendly never had any issues

ya this one

when I first saw the video I was like "you sure it's a good idea to bring THIS in?" even though owner is present but yeah just afraid of it go rampage and bite people

maybe the mall can improvise like this in the future if really can allow pets into the mall, just rough ideas la I'm not a pet owner in any way:
1. Malls should issue different shape of cart but strictly for pets, all 4 sides are grills, got cover at the bottom in case if pets will pee + poop wont drip to the floor, then need to hook from inside to the pets collar in case if pet want to escape = then you just push the cart around do shopping but shopping items are not allowed to put inside the pet cart
2. Must return to wash spot when returning = pet carts to be deep washed and sanitized, then charge the pet owner also for using the cart, charge per use or something

that one is Mid Valley

tak sama

dogs belong outside la, you bring them indoor for what? They love the outdoors. Thats why desa park gooding.

Such a backward country

no wonder all the while subang dont have pet friendly mall, only KL

That's why I hate this puak. Always about them. Even if didn't touch them they will touch u.

nope, i dont agree. malaysian are mostly helpful on this, getting the driver, passengers out of the vehicle is the priority.too helpful sampai barang hilang lel. maybe it just applies to some race only.

padan muka hahaha, serabut pet kencing berak. bagus decision

Then Megah Rise Mall itu apa?

nanti puak komplen kenapa ada jual babi restoran di sini

>inb4 dah dah, kito sudah menang
topkek
Nearlee

Not as simple as that as some pet owners are high class as they want them in their own pet carriers 🤦‍♀️ the easiest is to standardize the pet carriers and if the owner still want to bring them in the mall can create a new business revenue by selling the pet carriers to the owners

Never about the race issue 🤦‍♀️ but more how civic minded it is

Urban areas accidents there are more busy bodies and then helpful compared to kampung area whereby the villagers genuinely help the drivers and passengers

bagus no more anjin pengotor berkeliaran sini sana disgusting

my house area(malay majority area) in puchong always got accident at cross junction, okay ja people help, dont see people busybody tangkap gambar/video except for insurance claim of course.

last time my car habis minyak(ya my dashboard meter cacat) or battery failure, got people help tolak in less than 30s. not all people are selfish as what many people thought.

Year 2023, I was in Frankfurt for Window 11 deployment training. A day before we all depart, my boss took us to a mall, pet friendly mall. You know what happened? Pet shit and pee every where and good thing that all the owners are responsible, you know the most fucked up part? Dog trying to fight another dog while the owner dragging them away from each other, whole place sounded like those illegal dog fight arena. Yes the place strictly stated no big dogs allow but I still can see some owner bringing them in, you can't expect the mall security to be be everywhere since it's a big place.

So yea, I do travel outside Malaysia from time to time.

bcoz malaysian 3rd world kampung mentality lo
it clearly says PET friendly, not DOG ONLY friendly, but certain puak spin until racial shit thinking its DOG ONLY

You tak suka, you jangan pigi la..bodoh max

not about scratching or biting,

some people have allergic and bulu terbang sini sana
you imagine you eating then cats scratching themselves beside you, then their fur terbang to your plate

Different area 🤦‍♀️ try just go nearby to Subang or even Puchong near IOI mall just see how many busybodies are there

the policy is still in force, but explained that the state government will review the existing guidelines to maintain community harmony.
So there's a policy for this, why /ktard so degil insist want Sunway to break the policy???

Owai... last last tak pergi pun, tak ada pets pun. macam those who bising nak boikot, tapi forever forever no plan to go the mall pun.

Own puak tak bagi, dok mengata orang lain.

you ada sakit hari ini?

sound like race issue to me.
much lower chance to get help from chainis driver than meleis motorist. why should i help you if dont gain anything out of it.

I don’t understand why people are arguing. Don’t like the mall policy, don’t go la. It’s not like there is only one mall in Malaysia. Near my house alone there is already 2 big malls within 4km radius. Probably another 5-6 smaller malls like Aeon Bukit Raja within the same radius.

Just let’s see how the mall survive with pet-friendly-only patrons. Probably will have the same fate as malakat mall.

https://www.facebook.com/ng.sueelim

Hence why it is more of moral or civic matter 🤦‍♀️ hence why many Chinese failed their morality these days

Never ever about race because race divides the country more than ever since late 70s onwards

I actually went there on their grand opening.

Some of the pet owners don't even use pet carrier or pet strollers

They simply let their pet sit on top of grocery carriers.

Some of the pets are not on leash btw.

Is this irresponsible?

With this news, threads app gonna be popcorn again. With headlines like 'you see, respect the major cake' i warn ya

Owai

imagine some auntie bring in 3 rottweilers can't control them then they go on rampage in the mall

Megah Rise Mall laughing at this mall who claimed "the first pet friendly mall"

normal non pet friendly mall dying left and right

you need a niche/specialty to standout

being a normal mall means die faster

why do you need to bring your pet into an indoor mall? I rather let my cats stay at home, i bring them out i more stress. those wanna bring, wanna show off only right?

imagine cats and dogs in one mall, havoc later let loose then tergigit a kid or something then how? definitely the owners dont want take reponsibility right?

maybe a business decision..sunway sudah kecut telur when there were boycott calls..the mall cant survive with customers with pets only..

Sunway forgot they are in taliban country. Topkek.
