Summary

Location is a plus point for East Parc Bandar Menjalara, apart from its affordability and ample facilities, as well as a concept that focuses on personal space and comfort. It is a low density building nestled at the heart of high density Kepong comprising of fully matured neighbourhoods. As of 2012, Kepong’s pre-dominantly Chinese population stands at 360,000. Give East Parc a thought if these are the factors you are looking for.

Most of you already know that Kepong is a high-traffic area. Therefore, for a developer to think of giving future residents a sense of space in the shape and form of a 100,000 sq ft park is really worth the wait, but don’t wait too long because most of the 2-bedroom units at East Parc is already fully booked.
