Don't get it wrong, they are not going to fully air con the presently completed street mall which is just 10% the full size of Mall of Medini. Which also means that Mall of Medini, when completed, will be 10 times bigger than the present size.
The present street mall is just Phase One(200k sq ft of 2mil sq ft).
In the next Phase, there will be a fully air-conditioned shopping mall with indoor ice-skating ring, cinemas etc.
Not need air con lah, and please don’t follow those SG malls. If want to buy and see the same things, why bother to queue up few hours at customs just to see the same things. You mean people drive few 100s KM to Malacca , Penang ... to find atas aircon mall to shop ? For Malaysia , more important issue is to provide safe ample parking , covered walk ways , lots of eateries , easy flow of traffic .. can liao . NS also need to do work out in air con, and maids to carry field pack, save the world and save youself .

Malaysia's Medini plans US$800m public listing: report
Published November 07, 2013
[KUALA LUMPUR] Government-linked township developer Medini Iskandar Malaysia hopes to raise 2.5 billion ringgit (US$800 million) in an initial public offering early next year, a report said Thursday.
The IPO, reported by The Star newspaper, would be the country's largest since palm oil giant Felda Global Ventures raised US$3.25 billion in June 2012.
Medini oversees a special economic zone in the heart of the ambitious Iskandar development project in southern Johor province.
Medini has said its site has an expected gross development value of more than US$21 billion over 20 years.
Company officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
Iskandar is a huge development project intended to mesh Johor's economy more tightly with that of affluent neighbour Singapore.
However, recent reports have said Iskandar Waterfront Holdings, a privately owned developer, was planning to delay a US$300 million stock listing by a year to the end of 2014 due to concerns over government measures to cool property demand.
Southeast Asia's third-largest economy, Malaysia saw a flurry of big listings last year, led by Felda, that helped its stock exchange become the world's fifth-largest IPO market in 2012.
The pace slackened this year due to caution ahead of May elections narrowly won by Malaysia's long-ruling coalition, but has recently picked up again.
UMW Oil and Gas Corp raised US$740 million last week in Malaysia's largest IPO this year, following July's US$309 million listing of budget airline AirAsia X and leading Malaysian ports operator Westports Holdings' US$640 million IPO last month.
Sovereign wealth fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad is expected to announce a listing to raise at least US$3 billion in 2014, according to unconfirmed reports. - Reuters

Looks like you are very much affected by your atas 'sports car' relative who declined your invitation to your house
Relax and enjoy your house in Johor, you can't change everyone and make everyone think like you and like what you like, do what you do etc...
Do what you enjoy doing and give others your blessings if they do well. With lesser hatred, you can save the world and save yourself
Oh yes, I haven't had the chance to check out Sunway Giza yet. Only managed to check out Uptown & 1Utama in my previous visit. I certainly think that areas like Clarke quay, Quayside Isle (Sentosa), Star Vista (green mall at Buona Vista) etc are great for leisure. In fact, my dream lifestyle is a Sentosa Cove bungalow, and shopping/chilling at Quayside Isle.
But if we strictly look at profitability, sadly its the 'cookie cutter' CapitaLand/Fraser malls that give the best returns to landlords and tenants. So I don't blame SG malls for all looking alike, 80% of the time. A similar 'cookie cutter' template has also brought great success across the causeway to the likes of Jusco.
By the way, anyone read Country Garden's latest ad on Straits Times? Are they providing FOC LEGOLAND tickets, or do I have to pay $55 for the trip +LEGOLAND ticket? The ad is somewhat confusing. I don't mind checking Country Garden out, if they are providing FOC tickets but not for $55.
Sadly those freebies are at buyers' expense. I will also check out CG next week.
Maybe it's sales gimmick lah! If you don't buy, I don't think they will give FOC tickets.
They just called me, asked whether I am still interested in FSV.

True, no free lunch in this world. Well I think I will visit Country Garden, in their next promotional event....maybe got free seafood n petrol vouchers to boot! haha
Careful careful. You can have the freebies but you will get high pressure selling talk before you get the vouchers.
You may be right, there could be more freebies coming!
U want the Sg office contact to check on this freebie?

Actually both places quite safe lah. Juz tat the media like to sensationalise the news.
Nv mind, thanks Bro! I found the contact on google liao... but scared of high pressure sales talk as Bro Funniman said.....haha
