Great pix as always :okay:

I never knew they would put a large screen tv at BigC. Also never thought about the one at Siam Discovery Center.. is it new also?

I'm glad that they restored the interior of MBK. It was kinda drab 4 years ago.

But my favourite is Siam Discovery. It has a nice outdoor plaza and the place feels hip and cool.:guns1:

Siam Discovery is cool. MBK doesn't look that nice but it sure is a great place for bargain shopping.

I don't think so., Because u can also find the "no photograp" sign at every entrances. I believes thats about the copy-right of the interior-design stuff...IMO:

Big Thanks to Chad. Yeah! I asked my friend to take a photo in Gaysorn Plaza for me.he said photos are not allowed.

Has anyone been to Pratunam Complex yet? Some photos or words on how it is would be much appreciated :)

Too bad, many malls don't allow photographs. but i am sure they are not that strict though. because i remember some of my female friends used to take photos inside Seacon Square.

Nice pics Chad ;)

Thanks Chad :)

I've never been to a mall over 3 stories:|

Oh really? So does that mean LA malls are more spread out and rarely taller than 3 storeys?

Yes,malls here in Toronto also.No more than 3 floors.

Oh okay.. sounds strange but maybe the have studied consumer behaviour and found it doesn't make sense to build them taller!?

well........a security personnel stopped me from taking pictures inside MBK. Then I just carry my camera around and snapped without looking into the viewfinder (luckily it is a digital camera).....hehehe :lol:

I even managed to take pics of Gaysorn ( discreetly of course! :D ) even with its security looking at me because I had a camera with me! :D

I can't wait to see those malls when they finished.:)

Has the giant tv screen been installed yet??? anyone? I think it should be and it would attract people eyes from that distance.

If so

you guys can post some pic to share in Giant TV screen thread in the world forum.

Hey guy,I couldn't find more of Giant Screen pics..I think we have at Siam square,Siam Discovery and Silom and it that true that Central world plaza would installed one?,Anyone please help me here.directly post to the thread would be appriciated.

Yes it has been installed and is running now but the screen at Central World is the one to watch out for! I think Chad will bring pictures soon.

I think the tv at the bus stop outside CWP would be a little jealous these days :)

Big thanks Chad for the pic. Big C looked nice on that day. so bright. Is it still bright at night ..may be less than that?

Those r just the decoration stuff for Christmas and New Year, so it would be over-bright.....

wow Chad I like the christmas decorations..
anyway pic of Big C store from another angle, taken last October (sorry it's a bit blurry)..the interior was pretty cool as I can remember.

Nice!, I love them very much atom!...I know u have more.....;)

Good job Atom. Siam Square area is getting better. Yeah if the powerline is in underground.:) Have to put them in World forum.

IMO there is something else also that should be done to improve the streetscape of Siam Square, but I can't put my finger on what it is. Anyway, it's a very interesting area.

Good photos Atom, I like pics of streetlife and shops. Show us more ;)

Siam Square has the future project to change the main street to the pedestrian street,what do you think?In Thailand has the real pedestrian street?

BKKinTO,I had put them in World forum.:D

Hey, that's it! :colgate: I'm glad to hear they have plans for it, as atom mentioned.

They could also improve some of the facades, like for example the Warner Bros store facing Rama I rd.

nice pix Atom, thanks. I also like to see the overhead power lines converted to underground.

i really like this area... looks lively and fun all the time.

MBK - Center Point - Siam Square - world trade centre (try to pay out for ice skating) are the best area point's entertainment in BKK down town.

Thanks Kiku! Nice to see some places as taken from everyday life

Not ultra trendy (like some fashion shops are), but still nice, pleasant and very clean. Makes me want to hang out there.

My neigbourhood shopping centre has usually been Pantip Plaza and Siam Square area as they were closest :colgate:

They all look like nice places to chill out

thanks Kiku

nice. Where is those first pics?

the first pic is on ramkhamhaeng road (sukhapiban3)

i have many of thier pictures (SF)
but don't know where to upload my files
can anyone tell me?

Post your shopping mall pics.

The Old Siam Plaza

This shopping center is located near Wang Burapa and Pahurat and very close to Chalerm Krung Theater.
http://www.hellosiam.com/images/Bangkok/old-siam-plaza.jpg

Yes, me my self have to admit that this mall is massively beautiful. It got a full attension from the Treditional thai style Architecture that blends very well with the British colonial exterior appearance, but therefor didnt left the tropical courtyard behind by put a hugh outdorr plaza inside which now occupied by Starbucks and other chains such as Mc.

This thread was originally created by atom, but I decided to collects all of the threads that contains shopping center pics in BKK together.....in one place :)

You mean starbucks is there already? I used to think about it before that they should open somewhere around chinatown or Wangburapa near my work,it's good so when I get back I can go there.

Old Siam is pleasant to look at and the neighbourhood is great to explore by walking around.. like a semi-old Bangkok

Work on the the Ratchadamnoen master plan in which the inner part of the old Rattanakosin area will be turned into a tourist attraction, gets under way in June.

The Office of National Economic and Social Development Board (NESDB) which oversees the plan, better known as the Champs Elysee project, yesterday asked the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration to submit its infrastructure development plans and budget proposal for approval in June.

It will be the team's first meeting after the government approved the project early this year.

The BMA would be responsible for sewage system improvement, building six underground walkways under Ratchadamnoen avenue, refurbishing pavements at tourist spots such as Khao San road and Thanon Sib Sam Harng road in Bang Lamphu, and conserving historic buildings on Tanao road.

Utis Kaotien, senior policy adviser from the NESDB, said the first five years of the project would involve basic infrastructure development, pavement refurbishing, and canal restoration.

In the second five-year phase the pedestrian walkways would be built.

Some tenants would be asked to leave their premises or turn to businesses to serve tourism.

But Mr Utis said building facades would be kept.

The NESDB expected the Ratchadamnoen master plan to be fully implemented in the next 15 years.

The Royal Hotel would be upgraded into a five-star hotel and Thevej Insurance building would become a three-star hotel.

The northern part of Klong Lod which includes tourist attractions such as Wat Ratchanatda and Wat Thep Thida would become a route for canal cruises.

Three subway routes woud run from Huay Kwang to the Bank of Thailand in Bang Khun Prom; from Hua Lampong to Chinatown and the National Stadium to Ratchadamnoen.

Hmm, I might go take some pics of some malls interior soon...:)

that's great Chad. thanks. The area around the Emporium is very nice.

Central Pattana to open 10th mall

Plan to dominate all major capital districts

Nondhanada Intarakomalyasut

Central Pattana Plc (CPN), Thailand's largest retail property developer, is looking at opening its 10th shopping centre in Bangkok.

The new location could be opened in 2006, almost at the same time as Central Plaza Rama IX, currently under construction.

Naris Chueyklin, the company's chief financial officer, revealed the plan as he outlined CPN's target of least three new shopping centres within the next few years.

With the two new malls, the company would be able to raise its share of retail space in the capital to 37% in 2007, up from 31% at present.

``We want to dominate all the major districts in Bangkok before expanding into the provinces,'' said Mr Naris, who did not disclose details of the new projects.

However, CPN is considering new developments in Khon Kaen or Chon Buri or both by the end of next year. The firm already operates the Central Festival Centre Pattaya and Central Airport in Chiang Mai.

Funding for the new projects would be generated by a bond issue worth 2.5 billion baht backed by 2.5 billion baht in cash flow.

A minimal amount would come from financial institutions, he said.

In the first quarter of this year, CPN generated 341 million baht in net profit, up 12% from the same period last year. It expects to generate at least 5-6% growth from rental and service revenue this year, down from 9% growth last year.

With the opening of Central Plaza Rama IX, another new site in Bangkok and the two projects in the provinces, the company would control almost one million square metres of retail space.

CPN holds a retail space market share of 31% followed by The Mall with 16%, Future Park Rangsit with 12% and Seacon Square with 8%.

CPN's current properties include Central Plaza Lat Phrao, Central Plaza Rarm Intra, Central Plaza Pin Klao, Central Festival in Pattaya, Central Plaza Rama III, Central Airport Plaza Chiang Mai, Central City Bang Na, Central Plaza Rama II, Central World Plaza and Rattanathibet Town Centre, with combined retail space of 560,000 square metres.

CPN shares closed yesterday on the Stock Exchange of Thailand at 8.70 baht, down five satang, in trade worth 3.85 million baht.

I thought Central Plaza Khon Kaen would be the 10th branch! So have they changed the plan of building one up there? I think Chonburi will get it first.

Yep,I think Chonburi will get it first but,now Chonburi has so many superstores 3 Lotus,2 Bigc and 1 in plan at Central plaza and 1 Carrefour and 1 in plan.

I think Central has the different strategy for Pattaya and Cholburi though....

DANG !!, the WTC is really THAT big !!! :eek:

Must be at least a little old, because it says world trade center.

Actually I think this one looks better than MBK.. sort of more inviting with that plaza in front and the facade is kinda cool for a shopping center.

Nice pics Atom :)

Those aren't mine lah,I like the plaza in front of shopping center,so big.

Oh yeah, I wasnt pay well attention to the sign......anyway, yes the plaza is very big..but recently rather small during the night since there are millions of people gather there watching the EURO from 2 Giant screens TVs....The one on EGV and The one infront of the WTC it's self....

Ayutthaya Park also has floating market zone,I will post soon.

Interesting to see a shopping centre from a 'small' place like Ayutthaya.

Floating market zone?! Now I'm curious.. that's something you don't see every day in a shopping centre :)

I think it's some sort of canal line running "inside" the mall with boats selling things..:)

Look nice yet traditional.seems like they stop the paint work at the entrance?

Yep,they stopped the paint work at the entrance,these is the 2nd change from soft color to light color.

wow...Looks just like the Zinbat Show's stage in Disneyland!!!...:D

That's a good idea to create a more lively environment like a floating market with a little lake, fountains and ships and stuff inside a shopping centre. One such place I don't like though is in Seacon Square because all the decoration looks so plastic.

Nice corner on the Pacific Park :)

I think Pacific Park is quite big, it got everything like malls in BKK..:)

Actually, J-Ave is not finished yet. There's some more shop which will be opened soon.

FYI;
- Believe it or not!! - J-Ave is abbreviate from "JAPANESE-AVENUE"!!!!!!
- The owner of this plaza is SF development company, which own Thonglor Town Center also.
- The japanese love to shop here even nobody can speak with them!??!!

' The owner of this plaza is SF development company, which own Thonglor Town Center also.'
they also own many other properties in Bangkok.:) like the one in Klongton...www.siamfuture.com

Well, as the size of Game Boy advance with the PS2 technology I still think it's quite reasonable.

$357 US!??!?!?!?! SO EXPENSIVE!

In addition, Akihabara in Tokyo are having great bargain to shop

I was talking about..

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00004SQPD.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

its the same thing as a PS2 but flatter... I dont know why my friend wants it but I am just being a nice person....

will it be able to work in America? or is there a Thai version and American version? or just Thai?

Other than in Japan, all in the same system.

That one is 8600 baht at MBK (do some negotiation too ;) )

buy it from here, you can play fake games.
if you dont get many fake games in LA spend a few hours in mbk. itll be the best $2.50 you'll spend.

well, it's 400 on ebay....I think in Thailand is cheaper anyway.

http://i4.ebayimg.com/02/i/03/49/eb/29_2.JPG

Oh, it just about 20000 yen (7200 Baht) only in Japan. Anyway, it cannot use in Thai. Too bad.

buy it from here, you can play fake games.
if you dont get many fake games in LA spend a few hours in mbk. itll be the best $2.50 you'll spend.

u mean pirated game?, yeh..very cheap. BUT for PSP, still dont have yet may be have to wait some months for those illegalised games.

The new PS2 is so slim, and I think quieter than the old version. I want one, especially for playing DVD movies. Does anyone know how to make its DVD region free?

when the psp comes out in america... it will costs LESS than $200 according to ign.com :)... and the slim psp is $150 dollars.. i saw it on the commercial..

oh by the way.. the psp is already region free.. so you can buy a system in japan and it'll be compatible w/ american/european games..

The new PS2 is so slim, and I think quieter than the old version. I want one, especially for playing DVD movies. Does anyone know how to make its DVD region free?

"ธนากร วิเศษสินธพ" คว้าแผ่นดินผืนสุดท้ายของร.ฟ.ท.ย่านพหลโยธิน 12 ไร่เศษ ผุด "เจ. เจ. มอลล์" ตลาดนัดติดแอร์แห่งใหม่ในจตุจักร หวังยกระดับพ่อค้า-แม่ค้าโชว์สินค้าดี เด่น ดัง ล่อใจนักช้อปไทย-เทศ เผยล่าสุด "เครือซีพี" จ่อคิวยกแพคเกจแบรนด์ชั้นนำ ทั้งอาหารหมา-แมว ใส้กรอก เชสเตอร์กริลล์ เซเว่น-อีเลฟเว่น จองพื้นที่เหยียด 500 ตรม. ชี้มั่นใจขายพื้นที่หมดแน่ในปลายปีนี้ หลังชิมลางเปิดขายชนเดือนยอดจองแล้วกว่า 20%


นายธนากร วิเศษสินธพ กรรมการผู้จัดการ บริษัท เจ.เจ.มอลล์ จำกัด ผู้บริหารพื้นที่ศูนย์การค้าเจ.เจ. มอลล์ เปิดเผยกับ "ฐานเศรษฐกิจ" ว่า หลังจากที่บริษัทได้สัมปทานจากการรถไฟแห่งประเทศไทย (ร.ฟ.ท.) ให้สิทธิเข้าบริหารพื้นที่ 12 ไร่เศษบริเวณถนนกำแพงเพชร 2 ติดกับตลาดนัดจตุจักร ล่าสุดบริษัทได้เปิดให้จองพื้นที่เมื่อปลายเดือนเมษายนที่ผ่านมา โดยบริษัทมีเป้าหมายที่จะพัฒนาพื้นที่ให้เจ.เจ. มอลล์ เป็นศูนย์การค้าสำหรับชุมชน ในรูปแบบตลาดนัดติดแอร์ โดยเน้นสิ่งอำนวยความสะดวก ทั้งแอร์ ลิฟท์ และที่จอดรถ โดยสินค้าที่จำหน่ายจะเป็นรูปแบบเดียวกับสินค้าที่จำหน่ายในตลาดจตุจักร คือเป็นของดี ราคาถูก


"ปัจจุบันตลาดจตุจักร มีร้านค้ากว่า 8 พันร้าน เป็นตลาดนัดที่ใหญ่ที่สุด มีผู้คนมาซื้อของเป็นจำนวนหลายล้านคนต่อวัน มีเงินหมุนเวียนไม่ต่ำกว่า 10 ล้านบาทต่อวัน แต่ที่ผ่านมาจตุจักรแออัดเกินไป และขาดสิ่งอำนวยความสะดวกหลายอย่าง โดยเฉพาะเรื่องของที่จอดรถ และอากาศที่ร้อนจัด ทำให้เกิดปัญหากับลูกค้าโดยเฉพาะชาวต่างประเทศ ส่วนที่ตลาดอตก. ซึ่งลูกค้าจะต้องพบกับปัญหาเรื่องของราคาที่แพงเกินไป และการโกงตราชั่ง ทำให้ลูกค้าบางกลุ่มเริ่มเบื่อและไม่ต้องการไปใช้บริการ ก็สามารถแวะมาซื้อสินค้าที่นี่ได้ เพราะที่นี่จะมีสินค้าที่หลากหลายไม่แพ้จตุจักรเลยทีเดียว" นายธนากรกล่าว


สำหรับเจ.เจ.มอลล์ แบ่งออกเป็น 7 ชั้น แต่ละชั้นมีพื้นที่รวม 12,000 ตรม. แบ่งเป็นพื้นที่ขาย 6,000-7,000 ตรม. ส่วนที่เหลือเป็นพื้นที่ส่วนกลาง สามารถตั้งร้านค้าได้ 350-400 ร้าน โดยชั้นใต้ดิน-ชั้น 2 เป็นโซนจำหน่ายสินค้าได้แก่ ชั้นใต้ดิน ประกอบไปด้วย โซนอาหารสด อาหารทะเล สินค้าโอท็อปภาคต่างๆ เช่น ผ้าไหม ไม้แกะสลัก ชั้น 1 ประกอบไปด้วย เสื้อผ้าแบรนด์เนม น้ำหอม จิวเวอรี่ กระเป๋าหนัง เข็มขัด ร้านอาหารชื่อดัง เช่น เอ็มเค แมคโดนัลด์ เดอะ พิซซ่า คอมปะนี ธนาคารกรุงศรีอยุธยา เชสเตอร์กริลล์ ชั้น 2 ประกอบไปด้วย ศูนย์รวมสินค้าไอที เครื่องใช้ไฟฟ้า เครื่องครัว เฟอร์นิเจอร์ตกแต่งบ้าน ลานสินค้าคลองถม สินค้าสำเพ็ง ฟู๊ดคอร์ส


ส่วนชั้น 3- ชั้น 7 เป็นลานจอดรถ จำนวน 2,000 คัน และชั้น 7 จะมีพื้นที่อีเว้นท์ ฮอล์ จำนวน 5,000 ตรม. ไว้สำหรับจัดงานแสดงสินค้า และเป็นลานโปรโมชั่น โดยการเช่าซื้อจะมีระยะเวลานาน 20ปี ในราคา 2.55 ล้านบาทต่อ 15 ตรม. และเสียค่าส่วนกลางอีก 170 บาทต่อตรม. ต่อเดือน โดยระยะเวลาการจำหน่ายจะเปิดให้บริการทุกวันไม่มีวันหยุด ทำให้ลูกค้าสามารถเข้ามาซื้อสินค้าได้ทุกวัน ทั้งนี้บริษัทคาดว่าจะมีลูกค้าเข้ามาซื้อสินค้าในเบื้องต้นไม่ต่ำกว่า หมื่นรายต่อวัน แบ่งเป็นลูกค้าต่างประเทศ 30% อาทิ ชาวยุโรป เกาหลี จีน รัสเซีย อิสราเอล และลูกค้าคนไทย 70%


นายธนากร กล่าวว่า ล่าสุดบริษัทในเครือซีพี ได้ติดต่อขอจองพื้นที่เพื่อนำสินค้าในเครือมาวางจำหน่าย อาทิ อาหารสุนัข อาหารแมว เมล็ดพันธุ์พืช ร้านเชสเตอร์กริลล์ ร้านเซเว่น-อีเลฟเว่น ร้านจำหน่ายใส้กรอกและผลิตภัณฑ์แปรรูปจากเนื้อสัตว์ รวมพื้นที่ประมาณ 500 ตรม. ทั้งนี้ปัจจุบันเจ.เจ.มอลล์ มียอดจองพื้นที่แล้วกว่า 20% และคาดว่าจะถูกจองเต็ม 100% ภายในปีนี้ ก่อนที่จะเปิดให้บริการจริงในเดือนกันยายน 2549


"ลูกค้าที่จะเข้ามาใช้บริการที่นี่ เราขอเพียง 30-40% จากตลาดอตก. และ 10-20% จากตลาดจตุจักรเราก็พอใจแล้ว เพราะในอนาคตที่นี่จะเป็นหยุดแวะพักผ่อน และซื้อของแห่งใหม่ที่สำคัญ เพราะลูกค้าสามารถซื้อสินค้าและขนกลับไปต่างจังหวัดได้สะดวก อีกทั้งในอนาคตเมื่อมีการปรับขยายถนนเส้นกำแพงเพชร2 และรอบด้านทั้งฝั่งพหลโยธินและวิภาวดีฯ จะทำให้การจราจรคล่องตัวขึ้น รวมทั้งการย้ายสถานีรถไฟใหม่ จะทำให้ตลาดจตุจักรกลายเป็นตลาดที่มีความสำคัญยิ่งๆขึ้นไปอีก"


อนึ่ง การได้รับสัมปทานจากร.ฟ.ท. ทำให้เจ.เจ.มอลล์ ต้องจ่ายผลตอบแทนให้ร.ฟ.ท. เป็นค่าสัมปทานเริ่มแรก 150 ล้านบาท (ค่าสัมปทาน 145 ล้านบาท และเงินพิเศษ 5 ล้านบาท) ค่าเช่ารายปี 14 ล้านบาท และปรับเพิ่มขึ้นทุกปีๆละ 5% รวมทั้งสิ้นร.ฟ.ท. จะได้รับผลตอบแทนกว่า 1,000 ล้านบาท ขณะที่เจ.เจ.มอลล์ จะมีรายได้จากการเซ้งในปีแรกรวม 2,500 ล้านบาท ส่วนปีถัดไปจะมีรายได้จากการบริหารพื้นที่ ลานจอดรถ และค่าส่วนกลางเพียงเล็กน้อยเท่านั้น

Big retailers refuse to sign store freeze
Commerce Ministry threatens more rules

Operators of 15 modern retail businesses refused to sign an agreement to freeze their store expansion at a meeting with Commerce Ministry officials yesterday. Some executives told officials they had no authorisation to make such commitments and would need to consult with their offices, adding that they needed more details of the proposal.

The response displeased Preecha Laohapongchana, the caretaker deputy commerce minister. Mr Preecha said retailers would have to stop store expansion voluntarily or would face tougher regulations that could make growth even more difficult.

The ministry gave the retailers a week to think about their position and rescheduled the signing of a memorandum of understanding for next Wednesday. The agreement would call for them to freeze expansion until a new retail law or regulations are passed.

The Commerce Ministry has been under pressure from small local retailers and suppliers, who for the past few weeks have been staging protests demanding the government do more to deal with big foreign retail chains.

The small operators claim they cannot compete in terms of price, selection or amenities with the chains, from convenience stores to discount hypermarkets. Including nearly 3,000 7-Eleven stores, the big chains have a total of about 3,700 outlets and are expected to have 4,700 within two years.

Mr Preecha has threatened ministerial announcements to control the business if big retailers do not sign an agreement.

He did not specify how long expansion should be frozen. ''It would not take a long time and would depend on how much co-operation retailers give us,'' Mr Preecha said.

He said the agreement would contain provisions for big retailers and government officials to study how to help small shops survive in a more competitive market.

Mr Preecha blamed modern retailers for lacking the intention to solve environmental problems such as traffic and pollution, caused directly by aggressive store expansion.

Gwyn Sundhagul, customer marketing director of Tesco Lotus, said his company was ready to comply with the state rules whether they were fair or not.

''But,we want the government to carefully consider any new regulations. Besides, we want to know which is the real party that has been affected by the problem,'' Mr Gwyn said.

He said that if consumers were affected by Lotus's business, they would not be visiting its stores.

Mr Preecha acknowledged that Tesco Lotus was popular because it offered good prices, but said the rapid expansion of its smaller Express outlets in subdistricts and tambons had worried local retailers.

But Mr Gwyn argued that only 100 Tesco Express outlets were available in Bangkok, compared with around 380,000 shophouses.

Currently, four Tesco Lotus outlets are being constructed in addition to 18 Tesco Express stores and one Talad Lotus.

Praphan Eamrungroj, senior vice-president for properties at Big C Supercenter Plc, said halting store expansion would not only affect retailers but also contractors and new job opportunities.

Currently, Big C has three new outlets under construction in Chiang Mai, Samui and Chon Buri.

According to Jariya Chirathivat, vice-president for marketing and communication at Big C, she believed both traditional and modern retailers could co-exist as consumers still patronised both types of businesses.

Mr Gwyn cited figures by the market research firm ACNielsen, which found that the frequency of visits to small shops had increased to 19 times per month as of March, from 17 a year earlier. In the same period, it said, hypermarket visits declined to twice a month from four times.

As well, the survey reported, 87% of respondents still patronised small grocery stores and 78% went to wet markets.

Suchada Ithijarukul, the president of Siam Makro Plc, said her company had 470,000 members. Of the total, 323,000 are small grocery stores, which rose by 5,400 from the same period last year.

She added that 65% of total sales at Makro were to small grocery stores and shops, and were up 15% year-on-year in the first eight months of 2006.

ย่ำดินแดนแห่งมวลบุปผชาติกลางเมือง

โดย ผู้จัดการออนไลน์ 20 ตุลาคม 2549 14:41 น.


ดอกไม้งามสะพรั่ง กลิ่นหอมอบอวลไปทั่วห้างสรรพสินค้าเซ็นทรัล ชิดลม กับ “มหัศจรรย์แห่งพรรณไม้” เทศกาลดอกไม้งามประจำปี พร้อมเนรมิตห้างทั้ง 7 ชั้น ให้กลายเป็นสวนดอกไม้อันตื่นตา ด้วยมวลดอกไม้นับล้านดอก จากการสร้างสรรค์โดยนักจัดดอกไม้ที่มีชื่อเสียงระดับประเทศ รวมถึงพันธุ์ไม้หายากจากงานราชพฤกษ์ที่พร้อมอวดโฉมให้ชื่นชมแล้ววันนี้-24 ต.ค. 49 ในโอกาสนี้ พระเจ้าวรวงศ์เธอ พระองค์เจ้าศรีรัศมิ์ พระวรชายาในสมเด็จพระบรมโอรสาธิราชฯ สยามมกุฎราชกุมาร เสด็จทรงเป็นประธานในพิธีเปิดงาน เมื่อวันที่ 19 ต.ค.ที่ผ่านมา

ยุวดี จิราธิวัฒน์ พิจารณ์จิตร เผยว่า “ห้างสรรพสินค้าเซ็นทรัล ได้จัดเทศกาลดอกไม้มาอย่างต่อเนื่องเป็นประจำทุกปีจนกลายเป็นประเพณี นอกจากนี้ ยังได้ร่วมกับโครงการราชพฤกษ์ 2549 ผู้จัดงานมหกรรมพืชสวนโลกเฉลิมพระเกียรติฯ นำพันธุ์ไม้แปลกและหาชมยากจากทั่วทุกมุมโลก มาร่วมจัดแสดง ถือเป็นความพิเศษอย่างยิ่งที่คนกรุงเทพฯ จะได้มีโอกาสสัมผัสส่วนหนึ่งของงานราชพฤกษ์ ซึ่งเป็นงานยิ่งใหญ่ระดับประเทศ ก่อนที่จะได้ชมจริงที่จังหวัดเชียงใหม่ตอนปลายปี”

ภายในงานมีการจัดแสดงพันธุ์ไม้แปลกและหายากจากโครงการาชพฤกษ์ 2549 ที่บริเวณชั้น 1 เซ็นทรัล ชิดลม โดยได้คัดสรรพันธุ์ไม้กว่า 20 ชนิดจากหลายประเทศมาจัดแสดง เช่น ปาล์มศรีสยาม, ปาล์มเคราฤษี, สน Wallemia nobilis, มะพร้าวทะเล, หนวดปลาหมึก, ต้นพัดจีนดำ, พญาไร้ใบ, อากาเว่, สับปะรดสี และอีกมากมายที่นำมาร่วมแสดงในงาน

พร้อมกันนี้ที่บริเวณ Food Loft และลานโปรโมชั่นชั้น 7 ได้รับความร่วมมือจากโครงการหลวง นำผลิตผลเมืองหนาว ที่มีทั้งไม้ดอก ไม้กระถาง หลากหลายพันธุ์ เช่น กุหลาบ, ไฮเดรนเยีย, เบิร์ดออฟพาราไดส์, คาร์เนชั่น, แคลล่า ฯลฯ มาจัดจำหน่าย และสาธิตการประกอบอาหารด้วยผลิตภัณฑ์คุณภาพจากโครงการหลวง ซึ่งเคยใช้ประกอบอาหารเลี้ยงรับรองพระราชอาคันตุกะมาแล้ว อีกทั้งยังมีการแสดง และจำหน่ายผลิตภัณฑ์ฝีมือและภูมิปัญญาไทย จากร้านศิลปาชีพ 904 เช่น ขนมไทย, น้ำสมุนไพร, เครื่องจักสาน เป็นต้น

ถือเป็นจุดแวะให้ลูกค้าขาชอปได้หยุดพักสายตากับหมู่มวลดอกไม้ ก่อนเดินหน้าชอปกระจายต่อไป !!

Central Chidlom is absolutely gorgeous!!!!

Keeping every one happy
With its new colossal malls and lifestyle complexes, Bangkok is fast becoming a hot spot for discerning shoppers

KANOKPORN CHANASONGKRAM

'There's one problem with Siam Paragon," complains Marco Chou from Taiwan. "It's too big and I don't know where to go." On vacation in Bangkok, the 32-year-old manager at Swedish furniture company IKEA feels that exploring the seven floors of this colossal complex may give him "unhappy" feet. Nevertheless, this landmark for buying luxurious brand names was one of the stops during an all-day shopping spree that started at Mahboonkrong Centre and ended at The Emporium. His verdict on Bangkok's shopping scene - it's perfect compared to Taipei and even better than Hong Kong or Singapore, especially in terms of facilities and services.

Fongchan Thammata, who was doing her Christmas shopping at The Emporium, also gives thumbs up to Bangkok as the best place in Asia for pleasurable spending. Like some Thais, she used to hop on a plane for a shop 'til you drop trip in Hong Kong. Since Bangkok's bigger and better shopping centres offer more variety and international brand names, Fongchan doesn't need to fly out for a Ferragamo. "Shopping is no longer on the agenda while in Hong Kong and now I only go there for sightseeing or visiting friends," she says.

While Thailand has long been a hot spot for cheap shopping and tourists can't miss bargain hunting at the likes of Chatuchak Market, five-star complexes like The Emporium and Siam Paragon have elevated the country's shopping image to attract high-end consumers, who have more bucks to burn. And after premium malls, what else can retail giants roll out to further push Thailand as a shopper's paradise for both locals and foreign tourists?

The recipe for retailing success may be turning towards luxurious, largest or lifestyle shopping phenomena. The revamped CentralWorld at the corner of Ratchaprasong intersection, for example, proclaims itself the first and largest lifestyle centre in Southeast Asia. It is also the last piece of the jigsaw to complete Bangkok's central shopping district, along Rama I, Phloen Chit and Sukhumvit roads, accessible by skytrain.

An evolution of shopping malls perhaps, lifestyle complexes that offer more than shopping fun are popping up all over the place. They may cater to a wide range of consumers with diverse lifestyles or they can focus on a niche market with a particular lifestyle.

"CentralWorld aims to serve the diverse needs, interests and lifestyles of consumers," says Dr Nattakit Tangpoonsinthana, executive vice president of marketing, Central Pattana Public Company. "The bigger space allows us to offer more variety in shopping as well as entertainment and leisure to keep everyone happy." Its 550,000-square-metre retail space houses two department stores, 500 shops, six megastores, 50 restaurants and 21 cinemas as well as TK Park (Thailand Knowledge Park). Central Food Hall, one of the megastores, is claimed to be the largest supermarket in Southeast Asia. Offering a wide array of premium food and wine to cosmopolitans, the lifestyle food hall also has a Central cooking school with international chefs to advise customers on home cooking.

Next Thursday, Dec 21, CentralWorld will relaunch its trendy department store Zen, which now covers seven floors. The revamp has also added Zen World - a 13-floor lifestyle zone featuring a beauty centre, a fitness centre, and a spa and yoga studio as well as travel and educational services, which will be completed by June, 2007.

While the complex may have almost everything under one roof, Dr Nattakit emphasises that it remains true to shopaholics. "CentralWorld is an affordable place where consumers can do some real shopping, not just window shopping, since outlets cater to a wider market group," he says. "Moreover, people will find it a great place to update on new trends in technology, fashion, design and even dining that will enhance or change their lifestyles."

Also calling itself the largest lifestyle centre, but for Phuket, Jungceylon on Patong Beach will be the island's latest attraction. The whole project covers 200,000 square metres with 75,000 square metres for retail space. Its developer, Phuket Square Co Ltd, also wants to make it a world-class shopping and leisure destination.

Prawit Janyasittikul, deputy chief executive officer of Phuket Square, observes that Phuket boasts beautiful beaches and sightseeing attractions but still lacks a stylish spot for shopping and entertainment. "We want it to be a place for people to shop and relax in style. Jungceylon will help stimulate tourism by attracting more high-end travellers and make Phuket more perfect as a holiday destination."

Boasting Sino-Portuguese buildings, modish constructions, broad avenues and green areas for a tropical feel, the project will feature more than 200 shops, Robinson department store, Carrefour Hypermarket, SFX Cinema, a sports complex, international restaurants and clubs. Not only a magnet for tourists, Prawit adds that the complex will be a hangout for locals with diverse needs and lifestyles. A soft opening is scheduled on Dec 20 with 60 outlets ready to welcome visitors. The entire complex, however, will be completed around next June, while a five-star hotel will open its doors at the end of 2007.

A smaller scale lifestyle mall, the five-rai Ozono on Sukhumvit soi 39 has a hotel, spa, restaurants and boutiques. The hotel, though, is for Bozo or Benji, whose masters have to go abroad, perhaps for a business trip or a holiday. Ozono, which opened in May this year, serves a specific target group - pet lovers and their four-legged friends.

Open for business last month, Life Center at Q House Lumpini at the corner of Sathon Tai and Rama IV roads, brings specialised premium healthcare clinics, spas and beauty outlets and a fitness club together for Thailand's first lifestyle mall for health and wellness. It has responded to the health boom, with more people adopting healthy and anti-ageing lifestyles.

With all the new malls serving a variety of lifestyles and grand venues for glorious shopping, Thailand should come closer to becoming the most desirable shopping stop in the world. Lisa Waller, a British international school teacher and long term resident of Thailand, however, sees a weak spot. "A lot of Westerners may find it frustating shopping here," she says. "Why? Because it doesn't cater for Western sizes." At the end of the day, size does matter

WAITING TO BE UNWRAPPED

Since Santa's not coming to town, many people are on a gift-searching mission at Bangkok's popular shopping spots like Siam Paragon, Central Chidlom and The Emporium. Six dedicated shoppers share their thoughts about Christmas shopping - just have a guess at what gifts are in their shopping bags. (Find the answers at the bottom.)

- Mikael Bostrom, Swedish International Development
Cooperation Agency

A business trip here allowed Mikael to do some Christmas shopping in Bangkok. "I don't do it in one go and it takes several days before I can find all the presents for my wife, children, relatives and friends. But I tend to decide on what to buy before going shopping because I'm not the kind of person who would go to department stores for hours," says the efficient shopper. Last Christmas, he gave his wife a beautiful book on art but this year she sent an SMS to him while in Bangkok of what would make her happy this year.

- Wannee Paitoon, financial analyst

"It's the time of the year when we have fun in choosing presents for people," says Wannee. "But don't get into financial trouble by overspending." She didn't go over budget at Siam Paragon's Cartier shop, however, where she bought herself a Christmas present."I'm not crazy about brand names but Cartier offers unique designs and durability. It's worth it." The financial analyst adds, "I wanted to give Mum an overseas holiday package as a present this year but the flights were all booked. So waiting till December is too late if you want to give a great getaway as a gift."

- Fongchan Thammata, employee of trading company

The long list may be a burden but Fongchan puts her heart into buying corporate gifts for her business contacts. It takes about five full days to get her Christmas shopping done. "I have to find something different for each person each year and that can be quite a demanding task," she says. "Cosmetics will always delight women though and for men I like to buy leather belts," she says. "The presentation, like packaging or as a gift set, makes an impressive present and I'm always on the lookout for attractive items."

- Marco Chou, manager at IKEA, Taiwan

"I don't make a list of what I want to buy for my family and friends," says Marco. "I just walk around and I can feel what will be good for my father or my mother when I see it." For his sister and friends, he's looking for fashionable clothing and accessories. The tall and handsome Taiwanese adds that Thailand is a great place for shopping, especially clothing and creative candles.

- Viphavee Benjathanasombat, ballet instructor

After a whole year of working together, Viphavee wants to give her colleagues something nice as an appreciation of friendship. Then she has to prepare gifts, usually hampers and baskets, for respected poo yai. "I will choose hampers containing healthy food and items or fruits," she says. "I want to wish everyone happiness and good health and this kind of gift, in a way, promotes health."

- Kat Ngkaion, prenatal class teacher at The Core & BNH

On her wishlist, she would be very happy if someone buys her a Samsung D900 phone this Christmas. But Kat sees it as a time for giving rather than receiving. Thanks to her financier (her husband), she has a big budget of over 50,000 baht but she spends money wisely and buys when there's a sale. The Filipina has four boys and was at The Emporium buying gifts for her children's friends. "I always get caught up in buying a lot of toys. After a while, my children forget about the toys they got for Christmas," says Kat. "But what we will all remember is how we spend Christmas together. So it's really about loving and giving and I teach my kids that Christmas is about giving, not receiving and I take them to orphanages to visit the children there."

Answers Mikael: silk shawl for his wife, clothing for his kids. Wannee: Cartier ring and bracelet for herself. Fongchan: A big surprise that needs to be kept a surprise. Marco: Killer Loop pants for himself. Viphavee: L'Occitane gift sets for colleagues. Kat: three Barbie dolls and wooden toys for children's friends.

แผงลอย แบกะดิน จุดซื้อเสื้อผ้ายอดฮิตของคนไทย

โดย ผู้จัดการรายสัปดาห์ 7 กรกฎาคม 2549 14:43 น.


ผลสำรวจชี้ ผู้บริโภคไทยกว่า 51% นิยมซื้อเสื้อผ้าจากแผงลอยมากกว่าร้านประเภทอื่นโดยเฉพาะกลุ่มที่มีรายได้ต่ำ ซึ่งมีสัดส่วนสูงถึง 61% หรือแม้แต่คนที่มีรายได้สูงระดับเอก็ตาม ก็มีสัดส่วนกว่า 37% ทั้งนี้ส่วนหนึ่งเพราะไทยเป็นประเทศที่มีร้านค้าเสื้อผ้าแผงลอย และตลาดนัดเป็นจำนวนมาก ซึ่งสะดวกต่อการซื้อของผู้บริโภค

ช่วงไตรมาสแรกของปี 2549 บริษัท คอตตอน เคาน์ซิล อินเตอร์เนชั่นแนล ประเทศไทย (ซีซีไอ) และ สถาบันพัฒนาอุตสาหกรรมสิ่งทอ ร่วมทำการสำรวจโดย บริษัท ซินโนเวต จำกัด เผยวิจัยเกี่ยวกับพฤติกรรมและทัศนคติการซื้อเสื้อผ้าของผู้บริโภคใน 9 ประเทศ แถบเอเชีย กับยุโรป เช่น จีน ญี่ปุ่น อิตาลี อเมริกา ไทย เฉลี่ยสัมภาษณ์ประเทศละประมาณ 500 คน

สำหรับไทยได้ทำการสำรวจ จำนวน 507 คน เป็นชายและหญิงในสัดส่วน 50 - 50 มีอายุตั้งแต่ 15 - 55 ปี โดยเลือกสุ่มสัมภาษณ์ตัวต่อตัว จาก ผู้บริโภคในกรุงเทพฯ 40% และกลุ่มต่างจังหวัด 60% ประกอบด้วย เชียงใหม่ ชลบุรี หาดใหญ่ และโคราช

ผลการศึกษาทำให้เห็นชัดเจนว่า ผู้บริโภคไทยมีค่านิยมไปเลือกซื้อเสื้อผ้าตามสถานที่ใด และมีความคิดในการเลือกซื้อเสื้อผ้าอย่างไร แผงลอย ตลาดนัด / ไฮเปอร์มาร์เก็ต ที่ฮอตชอปปิ้ง

แม้ว่า ผู้บริโภคไทยจะนิยมสินค้าแบรนด์เนม หรือสินค้าจากต่างประเทศก็ตาม ทว่า ขาชอปกว่า 51% กลับมีพฤติกรรมเลือกซื้อเสื้อผ้าตามตลาดนัด แผงลอยสูงสุด รองลงมาคือ ไฮเปอร์มาร์เก็ต จำนวน 16% เช่น บิ๊กซี โลตัส ขณะที่การเลือกซื้อเสื้อผ้าตามห้างสรรพสินค้า หรือร้านที่มียี่ห้อมีสัดส่วนรวมกันเพียง 27% สวนทางกับอิตาลี เมืองแฟชั่นที่ผู้บริโภคจะนิยมซื้อเสื้อผ้าจากร้านเสื้อผ้าอิสระทั่วไป ที่เป็นเช่นนี้ ส่วนหนึ่งมาจากค่าครองชีพของผู้บริโภคในแต่ละประเทศ รวมทั้งไทยเป็นประเทศที่มีการเปิดท้ายขายของ หรือตลาดนัดเป็นจำนวนมาก ซึ่งสะดวกต่อผู้บริโภค อีกทั้งยังสามารถต่อรองราคาสินค้าได้อีกด้วย เสมือนกับการได้ซื้อสินค้าลดราคาในห้าง

สอดคล้องกับเม็ดเงินที่ใช้จ่ายสำหรับการซื้อเสื้อผ้าของคนไทย ในช่วง 3 เดือนที่ผ่านมา พบว่า มีการใช้จ่ายต่ำสุดเมื่อเทียบกับ 9 ประเทศที่ทำการสำรวจ โดยมีค่าใช้จ่ายประมาณ 2,379 บาทต่อ 1 คน ห่างจากอิตาลีที่มีค่าใช้จ่ายสูงสุดถึง 15,951 บาทต่อ 1 คน รองลงมา คือ ญี่ปุ่น คนละประมาณ 11,817 บาท ทั้งๆที่ความถี่การซื้อเสื้อผ้าไม่ได้แตกต่างกันมากนัก โดยผู้บริโภคไทยที่มีการซื้อเสื้อผ้าเดือนละครั้งหรือมากกว่า มีสัดส่วน 47% สูงกว่าญี่ปุ่นที่มีสัดส่วนเพียง 38% เป็นไปได้ว่าจากสถานที่การซื้อเสื้อผ้า ที่ส่วนใหญ่เป็นแผงลอย ตลาดนัดทำให้เม็ดเงินการใช้จ่ายของไทยมีมูลค่าน้อยกว่า ขณะที่ปริมาณการซื้อหรือเสื้อผ้ามีจำนวนมากกว่า คนไทยชอบตามแฟชั่น แต่ยังเลือกซื้อเสื้อผ้าที่ใส่ได้นาน

อย่างไรก็ตาม แม้ขาชอปชาวไทยจะนิยมหลงใหลในแฟชั่น และพยายามจะตามกระแสก็ตาม ทว่า เมื่อต้องตัดสินใจเลือกซื้อระหว่างเสื้อผ้าที่มีสไตล์ล่าสุด แต่จะล้าสมัยใน 1 หรือ 2 ปีข้างหน้า กับ เสื้อผ้าที่ธรรมดา และสามารถอยู่ในตู้เสื้อผ้าได้นานอีกหลายปี จะพบว่า ผู้บริโภคไทยส่วนใหญ่กว่า 76% ยินดีเลือกเสื้อผ้าที่จะสามารถหยิบใส่ได้นานดีกว่าจะตามแฟชั่นล่าสุด ซึ่งเป็นไปในทิศทางเดียวกับผู้บริโภคทั่วโลก แสดงให้เห็นชัดเจนว่า ผู้บริโภคส่วนใหญ่จะคำนึงถึงคุณภาพและความคงทนของตัวเสื้อผ้ามากกว่าแฟชั่น

ไม่เพียงเท่านี้ มีคนไทยจำนวน 57% ต้องการรู้เส้นใยที่ประกอบอยู่ในเสื้อผ้า มากกว่าต้องการรู้ยี่ห้อของเสื้อผ้า โดยส่วนใหญ่จะเป็นกลุ่มผู้หญิงที่มีอายุ 35 ปีขึ้นไป ซึ่งเป็นการตอกย้ำมากขึ้นว่า ผู้บริโภคจะให้ความสนใจคุณภาพของสินค้ามากกว่าตัวแบรนด์ของสินค้าด้วย นอกจากนี้ ยังพบว่า คนไทย 51% ยินดีจ่ายเงินมากขึ้นสำหรับเสื้อผ้าที่มีคุณภาพดีกว่า ขณะที่กลุ่มไม่คำนึงถึงคุณภาพแต่จะขอจ่ายตามราคาที่สมเหตุสมผลมีสัดส่วน 49% ซึ่งเป็นสัดส่วนที่ใกล้เคียงกัน จึงเป็นช่องว่างที่สำคัญที่ผู้ประกอบการเสื้อผ้า ต้องทำหน้าที่ให้ความรู้กับผู้บริโภค เพื่อโอกาสทางธุรกิจในอนาคต
