Why, oh why , good things have to come to an end.This Manaweblife video sadly records and pays tribute to an iconic place in Kuala Lumpur : the Ampang Park Shopping Complex. Situated at the crossroads of Jalan Ampang this is in fact Malaysia's first shopping mall . Opened in 1973, 44 years ago, Ampang Park had to succumb to modern development as the authorities wanted it to make way for an underpass between the city's LRT and MRT stations. The video captures some nostalgic aspects of this unique mall that have had an impact to many people's life , including some traders who have been here for decades. Baju kurung, antiques, music records and CDs, clock repair and lots of fine food outlets have been regular pit stops for many.. Indeed, on its last day many frequent ,regular customers and city folks ,some spanning three generations, have gathered to bid farewell to this mall which uniquely features an escalator with a single lane and a parking system that allows double parking. By January 1, 2018 Ampang Park might be gone but you can view and view again this nostalgic video. Manaweblife salutes Ampang Park adieu!
