Capital World launches Malaysia’s biggest indoor theme park

PETALING JAYA (Jan 15): Malaysian developer Capital World Ltd — a group listed on Singapore’s Catalist board — has launched the country’s biggest indoor theme park concept at its Capital City development in Johor, reported the Business Times.

The group has signed leases with international and local brands of F&B and consumer products, among others, such as Starbucks, KFC, Pizza Hut, Old Town White Coffee, The Teh Tarik Place, Moonlight Cake House, Guardian Pharmacy, Caring Pharmacy, F.O.S and Owndays.

"We believe the indoor theme park will be able to draw greater footfall to our mall as Capital City will be transformed into a one-stop entertainment hub and shopping haven in the heart of Johor Bahru," said Capital World executive director and CEO Siow Chien Fu.

"With this, Capital City is poised to be one of the key tourist attractions in Johor with its offering of the 315-room Hilton Garden Inn, 630 units of hotel-style serviced suites and 690 units of serviced apartments."
