Covered Walkways<br />
Apart from integrated events, major physical improvements were<br />
also made to provide seamless connectivity between shopping<br />
malls, offices and hotels in the area. Elevated and air-conditioned<br />
walkways totaling 537 metres were erected between Suria KLCC<br />
and Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, linking directly to buildings and major<br />
road intersections.<br />
The section linking Berjaya Times Square to Lot 10 was<br />
commissioned by DBKL and completed in December 2011. The<br />
underground tunnel between farenheit88 and Hotel Grand<br />
Millennium was also refurbished by DBKL allowing for foot traffic<br />
to cross Jalan Bukit Bintang safely. In total, 1,350 metres of covered<br />
walkways were completed in 2011.<br />
Moving Forward<br />
Throughout 2012, the BB-KLCC Tourism Association will<br />
continue to organise more cohesive events in the precinct.<br />
One of the initiatives being considered is to further enhance<br />
the precinct via festive decorative street lighting. The building<br />
owners will also continue efforts to link up remaining sections<br />
of the covered walkways.<br />

EPP 3 Establishing Premium Outlets in Malaysia<br />
To complement the current multiple<br />
retail offerings in Malaysia and make us a<br />
top shopping destination, outlet centres<br />
offering discounted luxury items will<br />
be established. Premium outlet centres<br />
are also known to drive higher tourist<br />
volume, increase retail spend and food<br />
and beverage sales, and higher hotel<br />
occupancy rates.<br />
Johor Premium Outlets is the first outlet centre in SEA<br />
Achievements<br />
The first outlet centre in Malaysia, the<br />
Johor Premium Outlets, was officiated by<br />
the Prime Minister on 11 December 2011.<br />
The outlet centre, located in Kulaijaya, also<br />
has the distinction of being the first outlet<br />
centre in South East Asia. The project is<br />
a joint venture between Genting Group<br />
and Simon Property Group. The project,<br />
located on 44 acres of land, involved total<br />
investment of about RM150 million with a<br />

For 2012, Genting Simon Sdn Bhd will<br />
embark on the design and feasibility<br />
development of the second phase of Johor<br />
