Aeon Seberang Prai City to get makeover and new name

Aeon Seberang Prai City, the largest mall in Bandar Perda, Penang, will be renamed Perda City Mall (PCM) after undergoing asset enhancement works.
Work has started on the mall and is expected to finish before Christmas this year. Its owner Northern Mall Sdn Bhd said in a press statement that the temporary closure is necessary to further strengthen the mall’s commitment and continuous efforts in enhancing its retail environment and shopping experience for today’s discerning customers.
The renaming of the mall is aimed at giving it a new identity to portray its close association with the new township as the main provider for most of the needs of the residents in the surrounding areas. The mall was opened in 2008 and has a net lettable area of 79,000 sq ft.
“The major work would involve asset enhancement initiatives on the second floor to convert underutilised areas into additional retail areas, thus offering more space for retailers,” said Adzman Shah Mohd Ariffin of ExaStrata Solutions Sdn Bhd, the property manager of the mall.
PCM is retaining a majority of its tenants including Sen-Q, McDonald’s and the Apple Store. Parkson and Econsave will be the new anchor tenants.
“Our goal is to wrap up the upgrading project just in time for the year-end holiday shopping season, and it is going to be an exciting time for PCM and all our shoppers,” said Adzman.
“We are really excited about the changes to the mall as these will bring some interesting updates to our shopping mall. We are sure that our customers will love these improvements,” he said.
The upgrading of the mall will be in tune with the current trend so that it will have a more refreshing air, added Adzman.
“We believe as a regional mall, we will be the price-setter in terms of rental and valuation of properties.
“Our aim is to enable shoppers to get all their needs under one roof, besides enjoying the facilities and modern cum soothing ambience offered by the mall.”

lai..lai..lai..sapu sapu..sapu the property around this new mall !
last time this same building called Aeon seberang prai city launched, people sapu property at that area. Now Aeon sudah cabut and the same building rebranded, people are asked to sapu again. very smart.
are u retard or what ?
@BMInvestor I like your comment 😉
lai lai lai..sapu sapu sapu bagi dia..new mall new hope.
Good news to Mah Sing!
Wow… good news for BM CITY Condo.
@Sunhill
Good new because Econsave coming???
@Chocolate
Mah sing bought the building?
Mah Sing has a big land bank near the area which link with a direct access in future.
bro…looks like u got nice market survey…lets meet up when free bro…..wana 偷师from you…haha
upgrade for Econsave????
Will this boost up the surrounding value? Maybe Mahsing should do something to boost up the surrounding
@Chocolate
Is Sunway or Mah Sing? Nvr heard Mah Sing got any landbank there.
why suddenly say my name?
Ohh yah Sunway not Mah Sing..nyunyak tua liao.
I prefer to have Cold Storage rather than EconSave la..haha.
GSC will be much better!
BM city mall. The progress is so slllooooowww la..
@Taman selamat
To be honest, mainland people still not that standard yet. Yes, a lot of them are rich, but they are not high class. Rich but with low class attitude.
I agree with you. But Alma Jusco can see a lot of High Class shop because got Jesselton Hill.
wow..define high class pls
Fully agree. Great observation
Cold storage is too high class la. Gurney area ok la. Econsave is perfect for mainland low buying power
Not low buying power, it is more towards reluctant to spend on high price stuff even though it is good or branded
Actually whole Penang is like that. Kiamsiap. Only Gurney can work because got Gwailo.
wow..so many young high class ppl in this forum lor..wear iwc, drive bmw, stay in gurney area high end residential…
Hi guys, actually Kiamsiap doesn’t mean “no class”, whereas being a spendthrift doesn’t mean “got class”.
It is true that “good taste” needs 1 generation to acquire, while money can easily be made within a decade. In fact, I made a few million just by flipping properties in the last 5 years.
But Batu Kawan should be in your investment portfolio, as Ikano/Ikea will provide fundamental “class” education for the mainlanders, as well as the hill-billies from Sg Ara too….:)
This is how idiot talks.
they should do something to boost up the value around this area… this area look like fallen city after AEON move to alma…
Even last time when the seberang prai city mall is here, does the value around this area increase?
Rich doesnt mean high class. People like that conman Zhang Jian rich or not? But the way he carry himself is high class or low class? People still cant differentiate between high class and rich
@yoyo
hi yoyo…nice to meet u…I am yoyo…hahahaha….
@yoyo
Yes, you can see that the apartment all sold out… and the terrace house also fully occupied…
U are not familiar with Perda at all if u comment this. Go to round the area near balai station.
my fren is staying at perda and he told me parkson wil b moving in. I c parkson is doing well in Pg Island and even in Sunway Carnival mall. Once more is new railway station and new flyover link to juru nearby bandar perda.
second chance for perda after previous failure. Can they pull it off this time with this rebranding?
@him I think cannot, Econsave just can bring in more bagla & indonesian customer.
Saw the banner “kini dibuka” and went to round just now..WTF! Nothing has been upgraded and the mall looks really lousy! Not understand what the mall owner thinking, if can not then dont rush and put up the banner la..
This mall is Dog mouth won’t growth elephant tusks.
Econsave! Jaẏa!!!!
hooray! কাছে আয় তুই অনেক আশার খেলাঘর চল না পথ ভেঙে পায়ে পায়ে hooray! কারার ঐ লৌহ-কপাট কিছু লোক কিছু কথা বলবেই
I thought Parkson ? Why become Econsave ? Aiyoh, i m outdated kah ?
@bull_shit
Mainland plenty of bangla, thats why its only wise to open business like econsave. You want a high end mall? Wait long long.
hooray! hooray! কাছে আয় তুই অনেক আশার খেলাঘর চল না পথ ভেঙে পায়ে পায়ে ! I want to rent and stay in BM City Mall ! hooray! hooray! কারার ঐ লৌহ-কপাট কিছু লোক কিছু কথা বলবেই !
@Spiderman
Econsave is for grocery
Parkson is for department store.
Both are tenants la.
Went there yesterday. Less than 10 shops are open. Official opening will be in December.
@Mafig
island also got a lot of bangla la, ok. y ppls like to categorize mainlander & islander. In fact we are penangites. live in island doesn’t mean u r rich n high class & live in mainland doen’t mean u r poor n low class. pls la.
island kia, if you dare, don’t drop by mainland forever. eat n bangsai in island for ur whole life!
childish.
