Residents and business owners are already reaping the benefits of i-City Selangor Golden Triangle (SGT) as an integrated development. As a development that incorporates live, work, play and study into the masterplan, it is already meeting the expectation of its citizens despite having more phases to go.
For Korean Jay Jang, he was more than pleased to be about to enjoy the convenience of living and working in the same development. “Previously, it takes me one-and-a-half hours to reach home from work. By the time I reach home, I feel exhausted,” he said.
“Now it takes me less than 10 minutes to walk to work. And after work, I can go to the gym next door,” he said, adding that he has a healthier lifestyle now due to the proximity to his new office. Jang is the finance assistant manager for Pantos Logistics, a multinational corporation, which relocate to Sumurwang Tower in i-City SGT to take advantage of the information and communication technology (ICT) connectivity.
Due to the elevated interconnecting bridges that connect his home, work and the shopping centre, Jang laughed that he hasn’t even walked once on street paths since it is safer and more convenient to use the elevated link bridges. Dr Geetha Sanmuganathan, who runs a clinic with her husband, and also resides in i-City SGT also sees the advantage of the proximity of home and the clinic.
“We have a young daughter, so it is very important that we able to reach home within minutes of work, in case of urgent needs. One of the main reasons why we chose i-City SGT for our first clinic is for this reason.
“And most importantly, the location and its surrounding are very safe. For women, this is important,” she added, pointing out that the security within i-City was good. For business owner Foo Cher Ming, who runs the famous Chong Kok Kopi Tiam, he is very confident with the vibe of i-City SGT.
“When I first step into i-City, I can feel the good chi within and surrounding it. I have seen i-City SGT grow over the years and is proud that we have such a hotspot here,” he said, pointing out the original shop is nearby the development.
With the opening of the branch within Central i-City Mall, Foo said it had a modern look but retained that old-charm feel to the outlet. “I see a lot of young people coming to the outlet. And when they come, I just want them to enjoy and build up that ambience of Muhibbah that the next generation can build good memories of,” he said.
