Gurney Paragon Grand Opening Ceremony 10.10.13

USPA NEWS - After its soft opening in 23 July, Gurney Paragon Mall was officially opened by YAB Lim Guan Eng, the Chief Minister of Penang today. More then 600 invited guests ''went back to 1920's'' and enjoyed the great Gatsby-theme fashion show in conjunction with the mall's grand opening.

With its address @ Penang's hottest tourist destination, Gurney Drive, this new 700,000 square foot shopping, dining and entertainment attraction features local and international stores and restaurant and bold architecture. St.Jo's is the centrepiece of the shopping mall, fronting an open Festive Square which houses al-fresco dining area and lively water feature, a one of a kind shopping experience. Hunza Properties Berhad's Group Executive Chairman, Dato Khor Teng Tong said, ''we are extremely proud of this milestone in Hunza Properties. This mall reaffirms the group direction into real estate investment in addition to our existing property development business.

''We have gone on record to state that we will restore St.Jo's its glory, and open it for the rakyat to enjoy, and that we will bring established name that have yet to have a presence in Penang. We believe we have fulfilled these promise,'' he further added. The state government has a vision for our beloved Penang to be an international city. We trust that Gurney Paragon Mall and the office tower will play a part in assisting the quest come true. He went on to say. Other than the grand opening ceremony, Penang Chief Minister YAB Lim Guan Eng and Hunza Properties Berhad Group Executive Dato Khor Teng Tong also launched the amll's mobile app which feature the mall latest promotions, events and tenants updates.
