CAPITAL WORLD: Mega mall project obtains approval cert, targets to open in 3Q

Johor's largest retail mall, Capital 21 Mall, is on track to open in 3Q this year as it has just received the all-important Certificate of Completion and Compliance from the authorities. Capital City: Comes with an indoor theme park, a hotel, a retail mall, and serviced suites & apartments. Artist's impression This comes about four years after construction started in 2014 -- and a year after Capital World became listed on SGX via a reverse takeover.  With the certificate, Capital World can collect the final 10% of the sale proceeds from the buyers (most of whom have bank financing). The cashflow from this, based on sales of units to date, is estimated to be RM50 million.
