More Snapshots of AEON Klebang Opening

Food & beverage is an important part of a shopping mall to attract crowd. Aeon Klebang houses several new restaurants to serve Ipoh citizens more varieties of delicious food. Meanwhile at the mall's second floor, a large food court which provides multiple choices of simple, economic but tasty food.

Aeon Klebang is expected to continue servin large number of visitors in the coming weeks. Despite the excitement of bringing many new brands to the city, there are still plenty of improvements which the mall management shall concern on, such as cleanliness, signage at car park, etc. Moreover, there are still many vacant units which provide great opportunity to bring in more fresh brands and new merchandises to Ipoh.

Opening of AEON Klebang

This is a hazy day. However, people from all over Ipoh and its suburb are flooding the Aeon Mall Klebang regardless of the bad atmosphere. Even during noon, it still looked cloudy when I reach Aeon's car park. Well, to be precise, I did not park my car in the car park because it was real congested. I have no choice to park near petrol station across Kuala Kangsar Road and let my feet brought me here.

There are many balloon arts in the mall, but different from the opening of Aeon Station 18 in Mar 2012. A simple stage is at the center court with a huge decorative chandelier hanging from the ceiling. It is more like a Christmas decoration. Chinese lion dance was performed in the afternoon. The mall manager received pomelo, pineapple, orange and candies from the mascots as a symbol of prosperity and wealth.

Despite the expected crowd on the mall's first day, several well-known brands choose to commence business on a separate day. Among those, H&M and UNIQLO, which are the most awaited shops, will be opened on 29 October and 30 October respectively.

Aeon Klebang - Counting Down to its Grand Opening

After long wait of almost 2 years, Aeon Mall Ipoh Klebang is now 5 days from its official grand opening. 21st October is expected to be a busy and crowded day for this new shopping mall as there are some new brands which will appear for the first time in Ipoh. This is now a popular topic among Ipoh citizens.

There are many workers in the premise struggling for the last few days to get well-prepared for the mall opening. As I could see from the car park, the mall exterior alone does have many works yet to be completed, such as tenant signboards, lamp post wiring, trunk road widening touch up, traffic lights system, etc. Well, let's expect the cheerful Wednesday next week and this shall be a development milestone of Klebang neighborhood.

Poor Shophouse at Hume Street

Despite poor maintenance, these shop houses at Hume Street had been further destroy by fire. As I thought it may at least survived as a billboard carrier even without any occupant, it seems luck isn't on its side. Demolition is the most unwanted thing should happened on this century-old building, but I am not optimistic of its survival.

Haze Gets Worse Again

Everybody hates the haze from Indonesia, but it keeps haunting us in the past few days. And situation is getting worse today, where we could simply judge by naked eyes. This is really annoying........speechless......
