GATEWAY TO NILAI WHOLESALE  MARKET

he Success of Nilai 3 wholesale centre, MalaysiaNilai 3 wholesale centre is undoubtedly a one-stop destination of wholesale, tourist and shopping paradise that offers a wide variety of goods and items at very attractive and competitive prices. Especially its located in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia where very rare having this kind of concept.



 

"Quick Jump to - Latest Nilai-3 news - Malaysia"

In judging from its sheer size — 165ha — It is currently still holds the record as the country’s largest wholesale centre even though there are some areas try to establish same concept. It is not easy to emerge as such and success like Nilai-3, Malaysia. Apparently, hard work from the management and state government linkage is crucial. They have done a great job on this.

 
When we visited this place last year, 2007 it still have some free lands to be developed in future. Recently, the developer just completed some rows of shop named Istanabul near the first entrance junction. Roughly about 40 newly built shops there. This is an additional good news for tourist. After completed these shops, size of the unoccupied land is reduced by some portion. We do believe in the near future there will be some more shops to be build by developer. This is to cope with the people coming to this place especially weekends and public holidays.

Short history of this famous place in Negeri Sembilan :

The centre was initially set up in December 2001 to promote goods from China. At that time, China market just opened to the world. It then, evolved to what it is now; aimed at drawing visitors particularly city and town folks of KL and Seremban to come and experience shopping in the outskirts. Not forgetting, during weekends and public holiday this place is crowded with people who are coming by bus from all states. It is a fast gaining popular warehouse shopping centre.

The majority of shops comprise textile dealers selling merchandise at wholesale prices. Among the goods include furniture, car accessories, carpets, garden equipment, bags, luggage, sexy dressing, ladies accessories and others. Lately, NGV installer also set up there. Undeniably, it will give visitor convenience to do some NGV servicing or Installing works while family members can shop around. Fantastic concept!

If you drive to the place, look out for signages. They are a lot of sign boards displayed at the main road when you are closed to this area. You should check out this area and you might end up with a good bargain!

Kellie's Castle Night Tour

 Latest on Kellie's Castle - Batu Gajah,Perak, Malaysia





Batu Gajah -Kellie’s Castle — known as one of the top few most haunted buildings in Malaysia — has announced it is set to launch night tours for those eager to experience supernatural activities at the unfinished Moorish-styled mansion from the end of January.

General manager for Le Shuttle, the management company running the castle, Zamari Muhyi, said the tour would be the first of its kind in the country.

“Kellie’s Castle is known as a haunted mansion, therefore having such tours will attract many international and local paranormal research groups,” he said.

Zamari said he had experienced the supernatural when he listened, through ultrasound equipment, to the sound of a woman crying somewhere in the castle and it gave him the shivers.

“The paranormal tour will add to the mansion’s tourism potential, which is well known for its colonial-era history and architecture.

“Safety will be a top priority and each tour will be accompanied by our guides, including an ustaz (Muslim scholars trained in Islam and Islamic law), in case of something ‛unexpected’,” he said.

Each tour will have a maximum of eight persons, and will only be conducted on four nights in a month.

He added that visitors would also have the chance to use special equipment used by paranormal researchers.

The mansion was built — at the cost of many workers’ lives — in the 1900s on the bank of the Kinta River here by William Kellie Smith, a wealthy Scottish planter who prospered after coming to Malaya.
