Lim's grand design for Shah Alam


Lim Kim Hong with a model of iCity

IN 1993, Tan Sri Lim Kim Hong, the prolific entrepreneur better known as the Mattress King, bought 70 acres of plantation land in Shah Alam for RM4 per sq ft.

For 15 long years, that land remained dense, undeveloped and unmonetised. Lim bought the land just because he had money, but with no solid plan to develop it.
