Retail space oversupply in Penang to worsen?


SINCE the mid-1990s, Penang has experienced a mushrooming of shopping centres on the island and the mainland. 

The One-Stop Midlands Park Centre (Jalan Burma), Prangin Mall (in Jalan Dr Lim Chwee Leong), Megamall Pinang (in Bandar Perai Jaya), Kompleks Bukit Jambul (in Bayan Baru), and Island Plaza (in Tanjung Tokong) were some of the shopping complexes that emerged in the second half of the 90s.
