They are even thinking of building several clusters of midrise of about 15-20 storeys with campus office formats to cater to the needs of tenants.

The Govt wants the project to get started asap to kickstart the Greater KL initiative.

XNeo · April 5th, 2011, 02:26 PM

erkkkk. 40-50 storey onli.

why need other cluster building. just make it one supertall tower enuff la.

its more iconic and good for KL skyline.

sepul · April 5th, 2011, 06:15 PM

well in the greater kl plan they said about establishing iconic places.. 40-50 storeys won't be iconic imo.. klifd is the one should they want to build an icon..

James Foong · April 6th, 2011, 03:01 AM

i m fine if they managed to hit 350m mark.

if they decided to start with a cluster of low rise offices, PLZ Do it in THIS Way..:

Somewhere in Oslo, Norway:

rizalhakim · April 6th, 2011, 05:10 AM

really nice

sepul · April 6th, 2011, 09:19 AM

indeed! it will fit really well in Putrajaya though..

jani13 · April 7th, 2011, 02:08 AM

Exactly my thoughts.

And one of that building should have a trading floor with an opening and closing bell like the NYSE Euronext, Philippine Stock Exchange, NASDAQ OMX, London Stock Exchange etc... At least have something to bring for Bursa Malaysia so that we can really bring memories when launching. In Amsterdam, almost every morning (3pm Summer and 4pm in Winter Malaysia Time) will strike the gong. If you watch the past year the former Bursa CEO rang the bell in Paris on December 2009 and Bank Negara's Zeti strike the gong in Amsterdam last year (both opening) if I'm not mistaken (watch the video on Euronext website). At least spice and heat things up rather than being a boring stock market. Hopefully they move and create events that might attract visitors. At least like NASDAQ people watch from the outside and have a tour on the stock exchange itself (maybe one day President Barack Obama may ring the bell here

Flat dwellers hesitant about relocation
By JASTIN AHMAD TARMIZI
jastin@thestar.com.my

RESIDENTS of Jalan Batu flats, off Jalan Imbi, want Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to reconsider their plan to relocate them to the PPR Kampung Muhibbah flats in Jalan Puchong.

The DBKL has informed about 15 families last week that they would be offered PPR flats for rent in Kampung Muhibbah PPR.

The residents were told to move out to make way for the Kuala Lumpur International Financial District (KLIFD) project.

They were told to attend a briefing on April 26 at the DBKL office in Jalan Raja Abdullah and their tenancy agreement would start from May 1 if they agreed to the relocation.

To go soon: The flats at Jalan Batu, off Jalan Imbi, will have to make way for the Kuala Lumpur International Financial District project.

Cheong Yoke Fong, 51, said it would be inconvenient for her to move to Kampung Muhibbah PPR.

“My son walks to college every day. It would be inconvenient for us to relocate because he would have to take public transport from Puchong to Kuala Lumpur to attend college,” she said.

Cheah Moi Ling, who operates a grocery shop in her home, said it would be better if she could still live in the area while looking for other options.

“If I move there I will lose my customers and my business will be affected.

“Work has not started on the project yet and I hope that we can still stay here while considering other options,” she said.

Bukit Bintang MP Fong Kui Lun, who was at the press conference, said he would write to DBKL on the residents’ concerns.

“The plan for the project has not been submitted yet. Many of the residents have been living in the area for a long time and they should be given ample time to consider where they want to move.

“Some of the residents want to move to nearby areas and I will write to DBKL to reconsider their move,” he said.

Fong said he would bring the matter up in the Parliament as well as request for a park to be built in the KLFID project.

“I will request for a certain percentage of the land acquired for the KLIFD project for a park for KL residents. We do not want a concrete jungle in this area,” he said.

Scary... with all these people thinking supertalls are a good thing for the country. Look at Dubai...50 cents or less on a dollar (DO BUY!!!) I think we should be more prudent on how to spend, and not just for bragging rights or symbolic reasons. They are superficial things...and a major economic bubble in the making. We CAN'T sustain all these luxury condos, office structures, etc. Learn from the US. We are going through the most depressed era since the great depression. Housing and construction is a bust! And most cities will not recover for another 10 to 20 years!!! Is that what we want for our capital, KL? Love KL but the uncontrolled, haphazard projects will do no one any good if all these being planned right now go unchecked and eventually got built. I hope I am wrong but it's just too scary.
