With two giants of retailing landed in Station 18, this area is now a golden triangle of southern Ipoh. A brand new AEON Jusco is going to open early next year, which is just few yards away from the currently operating Tesco. Commercial units that surrounding these two malls are now of the best valued properties in town. With expected increase of traffic along Pasir Puteh Road, two LED advertising screens are being setup at two major entrances to the Station 18 commercial park.
