But we desperately needed a high-er end shopping mall and recently, this place called Wangsa Walk provided something Wangsa Maju folk can be proud of - in the likes of CineLeisure or Ikano in Damansara and Kota Damansara areas.
We recently checked out the two-floor Wangsa Walk and found it to be quite impressive, although we were wondering why the floor had to be made slanting and mirror-like in finishing. If it was to give class, we hope the management would ensure safety of shoppers there, especially where a pool of water, which cannot be detected on the mirror finish tiles, could result in a bad fall.
Although all the shops are yet to open, entrepreneurs are not wasting time to book their piece of the economic pie. And interestingly, the management had given a fair mix of shops, too, led by anchor tenant Cold Storage where you could get some quality food within a supermarket.
We are interested in seeing how this place develops. And for your interest, here are some pictures:
Some shops have yet to open. Lucky are those who have booked trading space. Looks like a boom is coming for those who had a space.
Look at the sloping mirror-finish floor. Can you spot a pool of water if there was one?
Mak Datins and such, here is some place to hang out if you are tired of shopping.
Fine architecture but better if made functional as well.

When the TGV will be open? What do you think about the IT section? Can be a Wangsa Maju low yat? Replace the bored pc shop at SS 2?
I have a strong feeling Wangsa Walk is the "ultimate" shopping experience in the vicinity. Very interesting place indeed! If the IT shop can maintain the affordable pricing + more customer buying from them = WM low yat will surely emerge..
It's strategically placed just before the entrance to the future cineplexes. Wangsa Walk will definitely bloom compared to the boring and hot Carre-Four!
Please not to forget there Platinum Walk area...looks dull now, but there's up and coming with Parkson and Tesco.
Looks like it's catered more for the softer gender cos there ain't any shops selling men's clothes! And what about home furnishing and electrical appliances?
However I look I still sees a complex Pertama in the making. Too small a complex with very few shops or outlet. The choice of tenants currently is less than desirable.
Need more establihed brand to be brought in. The ground level are supposed to be F&B only but look what happen?
I can be sure Wangsa Walk will be popular but will not attained the upper class level. Too bad.
Indeed, Anon, you could be right. On weekends, you see many villagers crowd around the lobbies, not shopping but enjoying the air conditioning. On weekdays, it is empty save for the sales personnels and some sparse crowd at the Popular. One just hopes that this is no Pertama or Campbell shopping complexes in the making. Look at how Sogo suffered from the dilution of its prestige and you may cry for what will happen to Wangsa Walk if the management is not careful in its running. A suburban shopping mall is always at the expense of the kampung mentality and let's hope the management company running it has foresight not to let it become another 3-rate mall.
I was there yesterday, but did not see the cineplexes. I find its a beautiful mall, great design, spacious and with a great tenant mix. Actually some of the tenants are having good business as I went to a salon and have to wait about 20 mins for my manicure session. Some of the cafe place to eat are busy too.
Good place to hang out with friends.

敬爱的佛教伩徒,
有关马來西亜，吉隆坡，甲洞帝沙再也 (暹寺) 三宝寺 Samnak Sambodhi Buddhist Association No.19-21 Jalan 38 Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong 52100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 所发生的纠纷, 经过阅读了，Venerable Phra Piya Thammo 和尚及叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook) 的双方书信之后, 再经实地旁听了觧，做为中间人，我要客观实事的说：
1.当一个和尚、初出道 (小学生)，在修行, 若有缺点, 那是难免.他马华公会鹅唛區会主地席叶金福律师(Yip Kum Fook)，却心眼看不顺，就电招警万到耒佛教之圣地要扣畄和尚耒耻唇出家人, 这是绝对不许可, 除非是殺人放火之大罪悪.
2.他身为马华公会鹅唛區会主席叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook)，却反其道而行, 在佛寺不依佛法而軽视佛教的精神, 以傲慢的手段，帶领一般黑社会的人耒挑衅和尚打架, 这也是不该有、更不是佛教修行者的行为.
3.佛教的圣地, 其主要的目地, 是让眾生修佛道, 不是政治争執的地方. 他马华公会鹅唛区会主席叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook), 却利用佛教之圣地当政治活动的场所。如此果敢冒犯佛陀的教誨，更是大大的罪悪。
囯有囯章，彿有佛法，家有家规. 如果出家人有何不对之处, 他叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook), 为何不向主持和尚投？让出家人自依和尚的條规处理、却强权一味要显示他是马华公会鹅唛区会及三宝寺理事会主席, 无法无天的应用霸道手段践踏佛教之圣地.为什么。。。。。为什么.
至今, 他叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook)，不当不歉愧，还要狡辩, 这又证明了他说一套, 做的又是另一套, 囗是心非, 所谓的两舌, 相当阴险. 身为律师, 受高深教育, 却应用如此悪毒, 横蛮无礼的作风污辱和尚, 相等于是耻辱佛教伩仰者。他叶金福律师(Yip Kum Fook)不向主持和尚投诉, 却自承英雄,电招外耒者.请问,身为將近20年的三宝寺主持和尚兼顾问,也是第一位 自筹建寺的大功臣,在大马南傳泒中，是闻名遐邇的高僧.其脸要放在那裡？同样的,要是台湾星雲大师的佛寺沙彌犯錯, 理事会没有礼貌自作主张,电招警方要扣畄其沙彌.我敢请问！星雲大师的自尊是怎样的感受？他叶金福律师(Yip Kum Fook)是后耒者,担任理会主席也不久, 竟敢应用如此,目无尊長的方式对待住持,间接的就是告大家,强迫住持和尚必远離,雀巢鸠要佔。这种用心不良, 有老千之谋, 的确令人不敢恭维。
縱观以上几项重点，我不是盲目的護持三宝, 而是要坦白的说；他叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook) 身受高深教育, 为律师者，本应通情达理才是，但遗憾的是, 却令人惊觉, 他厡耒就是彿书裡所讲的狡猾且残忍的此颣人。他叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook)，利用他的专业知識, 懂得包裝自己的道德守則，以宗教为幌子手，到处募款，商业经营, 政治活动为重, 并没依循佛教宗教守则行事, 也没对人道作出任何貢献, 只不过借宗教之名捞取权和私利而己。
在此, 我奉劝, 他马华公会鹅唛区会主席叶金福律师 (Yip Kum Fook), 好自为之, 免因果報应.
