The Light Collection I
It begins with the Penang essence which has drawn and charmed generations of visitors. It is distilled from the colourful convergence of diverse cultures on Penang’s waterfront – an eclectic mix of Malay, Chinese, Indian, Nonya Baba, Jawa-Peranakan and European traditions, architecture, food and festivals. The Penang essence is not to be found anywhere in the world. In THE LIGHT, the Penang essence prevails, inspiring fresh interpretations of the island’s endearing appeal. Today, Penang’s waterfront is a favourite haunt for families and friends, morning, noon and night. Cool, evening strolls, visits to eating stalls here, or simply being there to watch ships and yachts go by are a national pastime. The magnetic allure of Penang’s waterfront and the lure of water will be made to beckon even more strongly by THE LIGHT.
The Light Collection I, the first project among The Light Collection series offering low rise condominium and water villas. The Light Collection I comprises 4 low rise condominium blocks with a total of 152 condominiums and 24 water villas. Each condominium has a built-up area ranging from 1,367 to 1,582 sq.ft. and the 4-storey water villas has a built-up area of 3,132 sq.ft.
The Light Collection I facilities include swimming pool, wading pool, basketball court, bicycle track, squash court at Collection III, common marina at Collection II, gymnasium, jogging track, green park, tennis court, sky lounge.

I m looking for a unit for Light Linear. Pls call me 012-5090486.
How much psf ?
any owner here? oc already ontained right… how is the workmanship and the coral reef?
I am very satisfy with the overall workmanship and it is indeed a very luxury project. It came with 3 car parks, full kitchen, aircons, etc. Can’t wait till the entire Light Collection residential properties to complete.
Thank you IJM.
Looking for collection 1 facing water villa Block B1 or B2 high floor, kindly email me at steve_khlee@yahoo.com. Preferred direct owner.
congratulations! are u going to stay there? i am waiting my unit in collection 2 expected oc early of next year… how is the coral reef?
I am going to stay there. Currently shopping for ID. What about you?
i like the kitchen very much, very nice!!!
plan to stay too but still depend on my offc location next year…. last i visited the site just before coll 1 OC…. very nice environment indeed
visited the place , superb nice view but the coral project not yet completed . I feel that all owner of LC1 need to voice up to have some discount on the service charge ……any feedback ?
yes, some facility is not done yet including the coral, but service charge started from 15 july, ijm should compensate us.
can’t wait to visit . i have seen some photos very nice and selling prices have gone up 200000 since last year, which is very good news.
light collection one kitchen is white and looks even better than light point.
Why “FLAT” root and shape like corrugated box ? A hot sunny climate
with such a flat rooftop.
the roof is used for the water storage to irrigate the gardens , it’s called rain water harvesting. Part of the green concept and eco friendly architecture.
The design of the building doesn’t have to be box type. They could
harvest the rain water even if it’s not flatted.
@sp
other than coral, which facility not yet ready?
@hk buyer
Looks good that the price is appreciating. I see that studio at light collection 2 is going for more than RM1k per sq/ft even without sea view.
Any good ID recommend? Plan to renovate the house.
Hi Dear all, any owner willing to let go units? Im housing agent here, and i few client looking at it, pls do contact me if any available, thanks.

Hi LC1 B4 & lwp , mine block B1 ………nice to meet all of u !
@LC1 B4 owner
hi may I check v u -better.com got wedsite or id shop address…tq
lwp, Maintenance fees start next year?
@Owner light collection
yup,ijm sale guy mss me last few day…
Hi lwp, i also get the key d. i am satisfy with the unit quality, the white signature kitchen looks very nice.
the dry kitchen hv induction cooker, oven and sink, wet kitchen hv hood, gas hob and sink, all is good quality brand from teka.
the coral waterways stil not ready, they r stil working on it. facility wise, it is shared facility, we can use the lc1 facilty and the light point facility now. end of year when lc2 ready, there will be more facility.
i think it is reasonable to start maintenance fee next year as the coral waterways still not ready yet, n there is stil a lot of contractors doin touch up and defect work at the surrounding area.
@LCI B4 owner
You start renovation so soon.
Will you rent out your unit or for own stay?
IJM giving free maintainance fee until Dec’13
Yes , received letter from IJM yesterday stated clearly Developer has decided to bear all cost and expenses for the upkeep and maintenance of the common properties for THE LIGHT COLLECTION 1 for the period 16 July 2013 to 31 December 2013 !
in previous ijmland news stated that residents can join the groups of coral harvesting, is it still on?
Besides creating a healthier marine life, the coral reefs will also function to beautify the development, especially at night when the reefs will be lit with a soft underwater glow. The underwater glow, powered by wind generators, will allow residents a clear view of the underwater world directly from their balconies or windows.
To maintain the success of the coral reefs, Jelutong Development will engage THE LIGHT Waterfront’s future residents and visitors in educational programmes on the harvesting efforts, backed by a “reef support group”. Through the group, residences and visitors can also monitor growth progress and the progress of the marine life within the coral reefs.
That is such good news and good IJM LAND indeed. @Canon

My unit pipe was stuck and cause the water overflowing and flooding outside my unit. It is very serious. Already complaint to IJM.

Hi , I am a new owner for B2 just bought the unit weeks ago.
Lee, welcome to the light collection family
@Lee
hi mr lee,do u bought v developer or resale,would u satisfy the unit.??..am going back to collect key next week…
hi lc1 fren any new update regarding our new hometown??…am compare v kl Setia SKY Residences n kl the westside,..our penang lc1 look abit low class…but the price almost same…the best point only the coral,,,..hopefully ijm can make it wonderful n successful…
I bought it from subsales at high floor fully seaview. The reason i bought when i saw it the first impression given to me is it really look like a holiday resort rather than an ordinary supercondo mainly due to low rise n their environment concept. I have been staying in Miami bfore for short period n this is wht the feeling i found here which is very similar.
U can ezly get a high rise supercondo anywhere but lowrise with resort concept, seaview, good location hardly in penang.
Of course for me personally the setback is the room is too small due to the space mainly utilise it in the living area though I stil can’t resist to purchase with the rest of the attraction! I would probably buying at a slidely higher price due to high floor but hopefully it leave me no regret
@lwp if u compare setia sky R and Westside, density of light collection is much lower.. and the key point here is you have access to all facility from light point to collection 1 – 4…wait till collection 2 is ready, there is small marina and infinity pool above sea! How to get that in KL! How I wish I can stay in the seafront property
lee , how much psf / end price you purchase it?
it is very nice and looks nice even at night.
LC1 B4, quite close to 900/sqf !!! Btw have you done with your renovation ? I am currently looking for ID and it is great if you can share me your contact !!!
I hv a unit lavishly furnished at high floor, seaview, BU 1300++sf,
come with all branded & new appliances. Rental RM3500per month.
Interested call/whatapp 016-4750441.

@LC1 B4 owner
@LC1 B4 owner
@lwp
Well, to sum it up, i’d say you got conned by ijm…:D
By the way, just curious, what were you expecting actually? An oceanarium-like fish-coral pond? Or maybe a gold-plated boom barrier to make the entrance look luxury?…:) Or maybe you can point out a completed condo project in Penang which satisfies your standard of “luxury”?
Breeza still the best bet
Of course brezza still the best la because he needs to promote it to get higher profit. The rest is just not worth a cent to this CONDOMana
@condomana
kl setia sky residence ,u can c the entry like hotel look….and I can say many kl condo look solid than pg
condomana u r lc1 owner also..???
anyone here already rent out his unit ??,…
Why buy expensive condo and rent with low rental return.
Rental should Increase!
@lwp
Thats why people from your bakground are naive. Believe in every advertisement and get conned easily by anyone.
Penang property rent wont go up, too many new property with better facility avaible with lower price, no one interested in old property, the owner can continue increase the property price but no new buyer interested, stupid place n park, u garden, kingfisher the price goes up but difficult to find buyer, no choice the owner hv to kept the place empty.
Penang property market so bad ah? Like that better invest in Klang valley
Same situation in klang and kl, the rent drop very low, according to property agent property rent out for 6k ib 2011, now the owner willing to rent out for 4k, read star new on yesterday.
Green projects in Penang recognised
Posted on October 16, 2013 – Property News.
THE Penang Green Corporation has awarded accolades to 16 Penang-based projects for achieving Green Building Index (GBI) certifications.
Twelve of them were residential developments, one commercial development, one hotel and two warehouses and factories that achieved GBI Provisional Gold, Silver and Certified ratings.
Hotel Penaga have achieved its GBI Final Certifications.
Of these, Hotel Penaga, Lam Soon Warehouse and Osram factory are already in operation, having achieved their GBI Final Certifications.
Jelutong Development Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of IJM Land Bhd, achieved four certifications for their projects The Light Point, The Light Linear, The Light Collection 1 and The Light Collection 2.
Kewira Jaya Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of SP Setia Bhd, also scored four accolades – a gold and three certifications for the projects 11 Brook Residences, Setia Greens (Phase 1), Setia Pinnacle and Setia Greens (Phase 2) Landed Parcel.
The other project winners were G-Home (20000BJ), G-Home (20001BJ) and G-Home (20002BJ), Kao Penang Office (Fatty Chemical Land M Sdn Bhd), Sandilands (BHL Waterfront), 1 Tanjong (Province Valley Sdn Bhd) and Marinox Sky Villas (Masmeyer Development Sdn Bhd).
Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, who presented the certificates recently said that Penang was the first state to acknowledge and appreciate the effort put in by the companies to make their buildings green and in the process promote sustainability in the state.
“Back in 2009 when GBI was first launched, the concept of green buildings was very new.
“As of Oct 8 this year, 38 Penang-based projects were registered with the GBI, making up 8% of the national total.
“Out of these 38 projects, 16 have received GBI certification and the remaining 22 are pending the submission of their design to GBI. The 16 projects represent 11% of the total projects certified by GBI nationwide,” he said.

@Goh
Why are you looking for buyers here ? I thought foreigners/expatriates will
snap up in no time. More often than not all experts will say or probably argue
then.
Hi Truth, Mostly buy LC1 is local people. thanks.
just sold my unit facing water villa, really boring place to stay. landscaping also so so only, plus i hate the sea water smell & strong dead fish smell from the pool. such a disappointment but luckily sold off with handsome profit…
@Jason
We trust you…:)
Hi Jason,
What type is yours? 1300+ sqft or 1500+ sqft? How much did you manage to sell? I am thinking of lower down the price for my unit to get rid of it, earn less is better then stuck with it.
Jason ,
I think the buyer wont regret owning the property. If given a choice and knowing this, he might regret buying it from you. sick that our society have this type of hypocrite.
@Jason
You hate the sea smell then why bought an unit at seafront development? Kinda self-conflicting. Dead fish smell from pool? You are referring to the coral reef canal or swimming pool?
Landscaping has never been the strength for penang’s development. Look around you, which new condo would impress you with the landscaping design? I don’t see that in E&O, paragon, or even Gurney 8.
You will regret selling your unit now. As once the commercial development is taking shape, the price will shoot up again.
@MO
Agree with u. I just cannot think what will be the reason for Mr Jason which already sold his property with handsome profit come here to share his disappointment…. speechless
Sungai Pinang situated not that far from The Light , and its widely known now and its even in the news that dark smelly sewage water full of deadly E. coli have been flowing into the river and the sea … and how long will it take for the putrid dark water to reach The Light area ? Well , with the help from the sea current I would say its not that long before the pollution reach there …. Still ppl are happy to buy properties floating on top of such sea water ?… Really mind boggling indeed .
i m lc2 studio unit owner, just collect key today. take a quick view around the landscaping, nice pool, nice garden, very big area(even is only 1/2 of whole project till complete, good for joging), ‘wow’ ship yard, nice coral pool overall 9/10.
i owned list of ijm properties…. bayswater, platino, spring, summer, i can said ijm is not only providing their customer more and more ‘standard, quality and luxury’ properties… its also let their customer earn more and more ‘husband’ profit. thanks ijm… keep it on!
Use the money to get ur english fixed better. got wife profit or not? Hahhaha
if you ask me, IJM has done pretty badly, considering the huge amount of land they own in Penang. For Jelutong, I think there’s nothing much they can do as the huge rubbish landfill continues to plague that area. The strong smell of rotting rubbish is the “highlight” of all the properties that IJM built around there.
As for The Light, Light Linear and Light Point were again big failures, due to INTOLERABLE noise and dust level from the highway next to it. They were built basically to shield Light Collection from the noise and dust.
Pearl Regency would be another joke from IJM coming up. In terms of location, there is no difference between it and a low cost flat along jelutong highway (again dusty and noisy). But what makes it really look like a low cost flat is the facade of the building. It is not suppose to look that awful if IJM had stuck to the original design of a floor to ceiling window, but they want to safe cost, so change the design to half-height windows to increase profit.
Agree that the Pearl regency looks like low cost apartment. Wonder why IJM choose this color scheme, really bad taste. if they still want to continue to exist in Penang, buck up! Other developers r catching up or above par already. I am ijm supporter too.
