BUKIT JALIL is set to be an even more vibrant area in Kuala Lumpur once the new 20.2ha Bukit Jalil City integrated development with residential, commercial, office and retail components is completed.

The project by Pioneer Haven Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Malton Bhd, in partnership with Kuala Lumpur Pavilion Sdn Bhd, was launched by Federal Territory Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor at the site recently.
“The collaboration between Malton and Pavilion brings something to Bukit Jalil that will deliver a fresh alternative that will be a draw for a large catchment area.
“This will in turn bring up the value of surrounding properties. When completed, the development will provide thousands of new job opportunities.
“Newly developed properties within Bukit Jalil have experienced double-digit appreciation in the past few years.
“According to the National Summit on Urban Public Transport 2010 report, the population in Klang Valley will grow at a healthy rate of 1.7% a year from 6.6 million in 2010 to 7.8 million in 2020. It points back to the law of demand and supply, and to accommodate more people, more residential areas will be needed,” he said.
Also present at the launch were Kuala Lumpur mayor Tan Sri Ahmad Phesal Talib, Malton executive directors Cindy Lim and Hong Lay Chuan, and Pavilion Bukit Jalil retail planner Joyce Yap.
Hong said Bukit Jalil City was expected to be completed in 2019.
“The project is divided into four major components: a 2mil sq ft Pavilion Bukit Jalil shopping mall, 1,098 luxury serviced apartments called The Park Sky Residence, 444 units of two- and three-storey of shoplots, and three- and five-storey retail offices.
“We believe that these four components will be the catalyst to transform Bukit Jalil into a more dynamic and vibrant township with excellent connectivity to the city centre and Petaling Jaya
“The serviced apartments, in four tower blocks of 40 and 46 storeys, will be launched in two weeks. The units will come in two designs with two bedrooms or three bedrooms, ranging from 868sq ft to 1,565sq ft. The units face a 32.3ha park.

Yap says she is confident of success as she said Pavilion Bukit Jalil is equipped with good understanding of the fundamental issues and critical factors to develop a viable and successful project.
“Bukit Jalil City is well positioned in terms of location and accessibility. It is a centre of connectivity, linked to the Bukit Jalil highway, Kesas highway, Maju Expressway, LRT and a network of roads.
“Retail planning requires not only hardware but also the software that personalises a shopping mall. We are catering for the surrounding area.
“I am very excited with our team of dedicated industry professionals, who have worked to manage and operate Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, and they will now share their experience for Pavilion Bukit Jalil.
