The Exchange 106 is a nice looking building, and with the planned buildings with a similar style surrounding it will give the district a really nice distinctive look. Similarly, KL Metropolis has some decent designs. I particularly appreciate sizeable green areas being designed in, and not just some overly optimistic trees on balconies.

I'm from Germany and visited Kuala Lumpur in August 2022. It is such a beautiful, modern and impressive city! I love how old and traditional buildings are directly next to skyscrapers, how multicultural it is with many cultures and religions living next to each other, and I like how a lot of nature and trees are incorporated directly into the city architecture, you have jungles right next to skyscrapers.

As someone who has been living in Kuala Lumpur for 30 years (my entire life), I am really excited to see B1M make another video about KL. However, I want to stress that the traffic in Kuala Lumpur is getting worse from year to year. This is one of main reasons why I would never buy a car in KL. Even travelling in the suburbs is scary. There are too many high density, 40 story condominiums. For example, within 1 kilometer of my home in Wangsa Maju, there are 10 condominium projects currently being developed. On average, each of these projects consists of 2,000 units. So, in 5 years, population density here will increase by three or four folds. The only LRT line in Wangsa Maju here already at maximum capacity several years ago. I was a bit relieved a few months ago when the government approved the MRT circle line project that will connect all rail lines in KL to reduce the traffic issue. I really hope that this will not be cancelled again if there is government change in the future.

Lovedddd this !!

[@Khun_Tim]

I'll visit when complete! The gardens look promising. Used to live in Langkawi for a year with frequent trips to KL for real shopping.

[@penukulbesi4006]

Never stop with new projects not only in KL but other cities in Malaysia also have very expensive mega projects.

kalau kelantan pas pegang lagi mmg tkkan maju la. aku yg ddk kota bharu ni pon nmpak tkde pembangunan. Jalan penuh dgn pothole hahaha

Very interesting thank you

I love how you change a the title if the information about title is missing This title feels better than the last.

[@pembelakebenaran]

It is a brave move if I may say, with office occupancy rate in KL city is only around plus minus 70%.

[@dariusz501]

It is almost no risk for a place where it has excellent project development with plenty of grade A office, good transportation system and located within strategic location. It will definitely attract outside company to reside a hub there.

[@pembelakebenaran]

@@dariusz501 you should note that every year the occupancy rate in KL continues to decrease. Thus you can predict as the new office space continues to be offfered to market, the occupancy downtrend will further continue also, and until some extent, it will be an alert to property business.

[@namazlur78]

Because almost all the gov administration moved to Putrajaya.It was not only for offices but also hotels, malls & various fine dining restaurants . In every building they will put GLC’s office and balance it with private commercial .

[@danielng7795]

In the end, new buildings will be appreciated while old buildings will be left. Many offices at old, dilapitated towers will relocate to fancy new buildings and the cycle continues.

Klang Valley area is expected to become a megacity of 10mil people with expected economy of US$300bn alone by 2025.

[@Templeboyviii]

This is very cool, it reminds me of “one Bangkok” development a massive city within a city idea in Bangkok Thailand

[@dariusz501]

TRX project construction was started on 2015 while One Bangkok was in 2018. Yeah, both project building plan are quite similar. But TRX is to cater as a financial hub where One Bangkok is a mixed-use development.

[@cleanenergyinside1921]

Yes, true. However the goals for each city are different. Bangkok aims to be a tourist magnet, KL is already positioning itself as a financial center, with the support of both China and Japan.

[@thanasitleuangsupornpong7111]

Awesome video as always! But any chance for a video explaining about the ‘One Bangkok’ project? It’s also another ambitious project reshaping Bangkok as well.

[@JorgeGlobalYOR]

Hi! I love your channel! I thought you might find a good case study in Monterrey, Mexico: Recently it became the 2nd biggest city in the country, and as of now it houses the 2 tallest buildings in the country (Torre Obispado Top, 305m, and Torre Koi, 280m), and it’s constructing the soon-to-be the 3rd or 4th tallest in ALL the AMERICAS (Torre Rise, 456m). The funny thing is that the city has now a HUGE HUGE water supply problem.

[@kasimabdullah3874]

[@vitammsdnbhd2402]

When you look at what is below ground level, Malaysia is an immensely wealthy country. This wealth is calculated in volume, not in dollars, as dollars only provides valuation at market prices today. It is far more wealthy than it' neighbours, including Singapore.

[@kenstaroz1536]

KL is certainly not lacking in green space as claimed. It is greener than most major cities in the world

[@wjj7488]

For sure you never read any report of World greenest cities.

[@leealex24]

KL is always blue sky too.

[@Fractus]

I have to say I think these new buildings look better than the unique designs in Beijing.

[@juniormasbac6649]

you´r the best chanel on yt

[@darshy927]

I love how they're presumably building several tall buildings because land is scarce and they want to maximise returns per sq ft, but there's a massive golf course across the street about 4x the size of the entire development😆

[@ghrbaa6727]

The golf course is a gazetted park, eventhough it’s just next to KL CBD, it was technically not part of KL, but was a part of Selangor state which surrounded KL. Only later when the border of KL expanded the park became part of KL.

[@danielng7795]

Here is the video about the golf course land size. Unfortunately, Malaysia devoted some huge plots of lands to golf courses in prime areas. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2qsZIald9drqdU

Would love to see you make a video about Bangkok! It’d be interesting to see what you have to say about this chaotic city 😆

[@OkThisllbeMyName]

seems like this project's more likely to see success than those other projects in egypt / saudi arabia / sri lanka etc
