Papar is also the hometown of Susan’s mother, Datin Seri Chen Si Mui, which is why she has vowed to develop the district with its latest development, Parklane City, that will provide a cinema for the residents here.
“The cinema is expected to open its doors to the public in March next year, with 180 car parks for the convenience of moviegoers. On the other hand, Servay Hypermarket will set up another outlet at Parklane City that spans 38,000 square feet (sq ft).
“Construction of Servay Hypermarket will commence in December this year, and McDonald’s drive-thru will be completed in December 2023,” she said.
Susan said this during a visit of Sabah China Chamber of Commerce (SCCC) Women Entrepreneur director Tan Siew Ling who led her committee to visit Parklane City developed by WSG Group here on Wednesday. Once completed, she said business operators and residents nearby will enjoy the convenience of shopping and dining within walking distance.
