Shopping malls still packing in the crowd

It’s an annual occurrence each Chinese New Year when city folks leave the city en
masse to spend the long break in their hometowns or at holiday resorts.
APART from places like the Puduraya bus station and shopping malls, Kuala
Lumpur and Petaling Jaya were relatively quiet on Chinese New Year.
Traffic was sparse on the usually-congested major roads in KL such as Jalan Tun
Razak, Jalan Ampang, Jalan Sultan Ismail, Jalan Raja Chulan, Jalan Kuching and
Lebuhraya Mahameru.
Over in Jalan Pudu, however, there was still a long line of buses waiting to enter
the Puduraya bus station to fetch city folks of all races who could only return to
their hometowns for the long Chinese New Year holidays at the last minute.
Although most Klang Valley residents had taken advantage of the long break by
heading out of the city on Saturday, many had also remained behind.
Not a single vehicle: A deserted road in the Pudu area.
The entrance to parking lots of many shopping malls in Kuala Lumpur and Petaling
Jaya blinked ‘car park full’ on Sunday - the first day of the Lunar New Year.
In Petaling Jaya, 1 Utama Shopping Centre, The Curve, Ikano Power Centre, Ikea
and Sunway Pyramid were packed with people intent on enjoying the holidays with
families and friends.
Jasmine Peter from Sungai Buloh had a surprise when she thought she could
spend a leisurely Sunday out at a nearby mall.
“I thought most people had returned to their hometowns for the holidays but I was
wrong. The mall I went to was packed with people,” said Peter.
It was the same at shopping centres in Kuala Lumpur. Only here, there were also a
lot of foreigners in the crowd.
