KL CITY HALL: No empire state tower
From The Starits Times
This, however, has not stopped Empire Property Venture from
supposedly marketing this development, as well as Empire Theme Park
Service Suites and Empire Marina Villas, which are part of the
Malacca Empire Marine Theme Park.
According to Empire Property Venture's website, the construction of
the theme park and the Sunshine Villa project in Malacca was
expected to begin about two months after the ground-breaking event
on 9 Sep.
Each project has its own link to its price list and booking
status.
That's not all - the company has also put up the Sunshine Villa
project's blueprint on its website, indicating that 317 of the
project's 510 units have even been sold.
The price of these units ranges from RM100,000 ($43,000) to
RM300,000.
When contacted, a receptionist at the Sunshine Empire office in Toa
Payoh Hub said the properties were available to the public.
However a receptionist who answered a call made to the Malaysian
office of the Empire Property Venture International said the units
of all the properties were only available to Sunshine merchants or
members.
She said interested buyers had to go to the Sunshine Empire office
in Singapore to sign up as a member before getting access to their
merchant website to make the purchase of the properties
online.
She also said that more than 300units of Sunshine Villa have been
sold, with the seaview units fully booked.
When asked if there were any showflats available for viewing, the
woman said there were none, but brochures were available
online.
She also said there were units available for a higher-end project
in Kuala Lumpur called the Empire State Tower.
The brochure on the company's website describes this development to
be 'the most prestigious residential address right in the heart of
the Golden Triangle Business District of Kuala Lumpur'.
This project which is supposed to be built on Jalan Tun Razak,
purportedly has 290 units available for sale, with 147 units shown
as 'sold' on the online price list.
However, a check with the City Hall of Kuala Lumpur revealed that
no such project is in the works at present.
A spokesman said: 'City Hall Kuala Lumpur has not received any
application for a property to be developed at Jalan Tun Razak
called the Empire State Tower.'
