MALACCA CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS | General Thread

[sunny86]

I think malacca government should construct a better traffic system in town area . During the sultan visit malacca , every malaccan surprise that malcca can be such beauty ,however when the sultan left malcca ,malacca became cinderella who turn back to her old faces . Frankly speaking , i found that malaccan civil awareness should be increase It is pointless to construct so much million public facilities to beaty up malacca ,cos within few month all these facilities will be end up destroy/stolen by terrorist .
By the way , i really suggested that NOT TO BUILT SKYLINE BUILDING in old city area such as red house , jonker walk , bunga raya ; as it will spoilt the straits time look in malacca ,gotta remember that history and pre war building is the most value asset malacca having ,they shouldn't be destroy but to keep . It is so up set when hearing the leader say wanna built the communication tower in red house area (
Byy hook or by cook , i think that the goverment can think about to built financial/ commerce centre in klebang area ? as plenty land there and perhaps malacca can have it's manhattam there , haha

i agree with you! i think the tower project is already scrapped right??

Malacca should not make the same mistake as Penang by building modern highrises in the heritage zone. since KOMTAR came up, many others follow. up to now i think Malacca has done well conserving the heritage area, right?

Malacca and Penang will be applying for the UNESCO heritage listing again this year. hopefully we can make it this time

MALACCA: Two years from now, large aircraft such as the Airbus 320 and Boeing 737 will be able to land at the Batu Berendam Airport here.

Work on the new airport terminal and extended runway is expected to start next month and is scheduled to complete by early 2008.

Currently, only Fokker planes can land at the airport.

Once the RM120mil project is ready, the airport will become a regional airport and help boost medical tourism in the state, said Transport Minister Datuk Seri Chan Kong Choy.

Chan said the airport would enable foreign patients, especially those from Indonesia, to fly straight to Malacca.

“Indonesians no longer need to fly to Jakarta, Singapore, or Australia. They can fly direct to Malacca where the medical fees are cheaper,” he said.

Chan, who is also MCA deputy president, was speaking to newsmen after paying a courtesy call on Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam at his official residence yesterday. He was accompanied by state MCA leaders.

Last year, 54,000 tourists, 96% of them Indonesians, sought medical treatment at three private hospitals here. They spent an average of RM8,000 each

Dataran Pahlawan looks very interesting!

[teckkang]

Do u have any pic of the proposed new terminal building of Melaka airport??

It's about time when Melaka City Council should beautify the melaka city into a greater extent. It's eyesore to see 'kampung' houses in the middle of the city (especially in bukit cina and banda hilir), stink and dirty drains along every street in the city, unused and not maintained empty spaces in the city, abandoned high rise buildings, unoccupied empty shops(Melaka raya) and not maintained pre-historic buildings. The government should
1. Restore and rehabilitate every pre-historic building (regardless of its value and size)
2. Beautify every single little street in the city (e.g. build walkways and cover every visible drain)
3. Demolish all not-under-preservation ‘kampung’ houses in the middle of the city.
4. Stop building shop houses when the demand is very low.
5. Reduce number of side parking lots in old china town (area around Jonker Walk) by replacing them with walkways
6. Convert more old streets to like that of Jonker Walk

The government should make Melaka city a well-planned city. Areas (e.g Mata Kucing) which are the main gateways to Melaka city should be beautified. Remember, to attract tourists to this city, not only promotions and more of tourist spot are needed, but the quality of the city itself is far more important. Leave a good impression to tourists who come here.

Anyway these are just my opinions. (“,)

Latest update guys:

Padang Pahlawan is due to open to the public in July and it has been proclaimed as the largest shopping centre in Melaka(surpassing mahkota)

However,i realise that many outlets in Padang Pahlawan contains the same outlets as Mahkota,I'm afraid that those outlets from Mahkota might move over there!!!+_+
