Nothing wow factor on the phase-2 façade
Can’t they design something that WOW the public? Some iconic or signature looking tower, rather than this bored looking condo / hotel / office squarish tower again.
Their Maritime condo tower at Karpal Singh drive was a good try though..

Cannot lah, later too expensive, penang no market.
Haha… IJM oredi screwed on The Light Collection 3 & 4, so many un-sold units… all big big size units and super high maintenance fee ( over rm500+ ).
don’t buy la, yesterday news nearly 1 girl got raped and robbed by bangla. so dangerous that area.
how about a new casino? maybe more attractive
@obak
There’s no need to build a casino in Penang, Penang itself is already one big pyramid scam casino. And you already have one big casino retail outlet at Penang Times Square. *sigh*. gloomy skies above. A storm is brewing.
Ya man money games are everywhere and you are guaranteed of the return. casino no guarantee wor hahaha
hihihihi
JJPTR is the best! Go go go!!!
I just wonder since those so-called investors of 老鼠会 are “fully” aware of the risk and thus, they must have some sort of selfish, scammer-alike mindset 同属感 right ？ Someone must die for their greed too ?
this is call challenge the economy. touch wood

MBI is better than JJPTR, today so many buses park around SPICE.
Maybe The Light City can be more attractive when it is linked to MBI?
