Malaysia, Johor Bahru - R&F Mall | Empty Mall

- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2023
- Day trip to Johor Bahru and thought of exploring R&F mall besides the usual City Square Mall. But it turned out to be a ghost town. Hardly any visitors and only a handful of shops are opened. Left the place after a few minutes of wondering around the empty mall.

The Link Bridge is hot during the day. Bloody Hot! Now people are littering it with bicycles and other things. As for R&F Mall it's not very nice. Ther are far nicer malls nearby like Mid-Valley South-Key, Toppen Mall, Aeon Tebrau and Paradigm Mall. WE JB'ers have no reason to head down to CIQ area. It's very dirty and unkempt down there.
There is side condo Illegal business red light massage and mini casino, gangster that why sold my condo Peace of mind for a dip lost I have b been to naive I don’t listen to locals friends and not safe the drug addict a group gating bigger beside the highway I don’t encourage lady to stay here . The property they don’t maintain Dirty and dusty when tear also Corrosion because near the sea Very hard to maintain everything get rusty If your tenant don’t know how to maintain With a cheap renter I can say good luck to you You have to get someone to fix very expensive Usually no standard Handyman Hit and run .
I already sold my condo vey dip lost but Peace of minds building Everything so run down and not safe and they more drug addict around that area.
Seriously, like to get a unit there.
But always have the anxiety that the law changes anytime making it difficult for foreigner that prevent the keen interest to be fulfil.
It gave foreigner totally no security over owning property in Johor even if it is not for making profit but a weekend house.
No foreigner should invest money in Malaysian property, especially when the rental market is flooded.
The condos above the shopping mall are fully occupied,. But the shops were selling the wrong products for the tenants which comprises mainly day trippers working in Singapore.
Fully occupied? 🤣
Wow that’s peacefully quiet and we can walk without people jumping on us 😂😂
LOL..you will just be walking around looking at empty shops 😹
The cinema closed. I used to go to the emperor cinema, as if i booked the whole theatre. Good quality seat and 18ringgit for a tix if i rem correctly. It very cheap for the tix
Everyone is leaving, and ghost entering
😹
Ha2 ive been there for movie.. Wow only 3 peoples watchin.. em the ticket normal price as all..
My frienda said This places is money laundering in process.. I just give a smiles without comment. Tq friends for the movies.. Atually we saw 2 movies that days in one go.. peace!
Lol 😹
Cinema already closed shop.
Ha3 perhaps we the only 3 last person there But wow the interior it's like royalty treatment..Sorry to heard it instead of experienced it..peace!
Cause the bridge from JB sentral to RF Mall directly have been cut off near the RF Mall side, so those go to RF mall need to climb up and down the stair as compare to last time a straight direct bridge to RF Mall.
Oh I see 😮
The purchasing power are low.
Empty and relaxing is peaceful
😅
I went JB many times, we can see R&F mall on the road, but very difficult to drive there.
No point going there as the mall is empty 😅
@@BattytheCat-1234 I think it's worth going just to witness the horrendous standard of construction.
@@byteme9718 😅😂
@@BattytheCat-1234 Everyone should see how the floor levels don't match the escalators and none are level.
@@byteme9718 I didn’t notice that, only noticed that it is empty 😅
The main problem with this mall is there is not much new store, a lot of shop u see here can easily be found in city square or ksl, walking 10 min is consider very far for sporean and not worth the walk. Condo here mostly bought by china people who dont stay there but just rent out to mostly malaysian who dont really shop here, the most is buy some bread, grocery or makan. Also the occupancy rate is quite low, the only chance for this mall is 2 year later when the mrt start, expect the occupancy rate to shot up and hopefully they can bring in some anchor tenant like Haidilao etc .
Thanks for the insight. I noticed the Princess Cove condo doesn’t look occupied. Wonder if there are units being sold.
whoever bought these for investment are going to make a loss, the low rental is not enough to pay for the home loan interest. those tenants are surely going to ruin your house when they are about to move out. nobody pays maintenance fee in malaysia so those beautiful condos and strata-titled landed properties they are marketing now will be in a destitute state 5 years down the road.
The R&F Mall bridge linking to CIQ no longer can be used because it needs to make way for the RTS !
Oh I See, thanks for the info 😸
Such a shame ! The mall looks very pretty and reminds me of one of the malls I went in Turkey . It can be potentially very classy and nice for Singaporeans to go.
I feel it’s quite a shame too 😔
Pretty? Really seriously? It was built to look so dull n outdated!
Singaporeans are bored of shopping already. This isn't 1990s when shopping was the favourite past time of Singaporeans.
I can't believe you've actually seen it. Its terrible and the poor standard of construction is evident everywhere.
Ghost shopping mall and ghost town.
😅
Is it real footages? Really awesome. I went to JB cbd and KSL about one month ago. So I can't imagine so terrible at R&F really.
Yes it is real and taken on 23 Aug 2023. I thought the mall was closed on the Wednesday. 😹
Hoping they will get better and better in the near future.
It was already bad before covid.
Lousy mall selling expensive food.
good location but with sleeping management
That explains why it’s empty
@@BattytheCat-1234lousy tenants. Food very expensive. Local people avoid the place.
The only way all the malls in JB will BOOM is for JB to leave the Federation and merge with Singapore and form a new nation. All Johoreans will be able to earn Singapore dollars and be rich and the property market will explode. Impossible?. Who knows. Stranger things have been known to happen.
Johorean is a bit passive about the JB development. However, the mall still have rooms to grow, looking at it location. The management need to do more promotions and activities to encourage visitors and to boost the mall image. The selection of quality retailers is important to bring up the image.
Lama tak pi. Cantik betul. Mana hilangnya towkey dan pelangan.
Tq for the latest info.
Kita doa keadaan kembali sihat.
Dulu sya ada kerja projec kat sana
This is similar to Forest City, which was also built by Chinese developers! There are drainage problems in some of the units and cracks in the walls.
Yes!
Why empty because products sold not that attractive to consumers. To make the mall attractive starts having government offices at the mall. As time goes by more shopping complex should open. Invite shops like Mydin and Jakel at the Mall. Discounts should be given for few months.
Waiting for you Singaporean will
Most Malaysians want the Tebrau Strait to be free of all dams. The Johor causeway needs to be demolished and replaced with a high bridge and the RTS route needs to use an undersea tunnel. The Tebrau Strait needs to be made into a canal like the Panama Canal and the Suez Canal, which will allow free ships to pass through the Tebrau Strait, which will simultaneously plan economic growth and generate the opinion of Johor in general and Malaysia in general for the long term to come.
if your father want to invest,should be ok
Fantasy dreams do not need money. Keep dreaming. It may happen 10-20 generations down the road. Cheers
If the leaders of MY start doing preliminary planning today, then it’ll probably be realised 30 years later. SG gardens by the bay was thought of possibly 30 years ago. The problem is the leadership of MY doesn’t last that long. They change people and forget what they wanted to do and throws away everything the previous people had done. There is no one person to oversee the vision and the plan over long term.
What tebrau strait?
The Strait of Johor
One of the worst China Developers in JB. All units got Toilet water leaking issues.Toilet water leaking tru ceiling below units
That’s horrible 🙀
That's why cannot trust China products. Always look grand in the beginning but problems start surfacing very soon.
Is this video only confined there??? Other malls are quite vibrant after COVID 19 like malls in the Klang Valley & Penang... There must be concrete reasons for the crowd to shun away from these malls...
This mall doesn’t have a lot of shops opened. Most are already closed.
Apart from the fact there's nothing there, it's in the wrong place and difficult to get to. Whether your driving from Singapore, or Malaysia there are better malls you pass before you get near this disaster.
A few shopping malls in Johor not occupied/abandoned. Wasting precious land.
It’s a pity
When was the video taken? If so empty i dont want to go le.
This was taken in Aug 2023
除非你赚新加坡元，否则非常昂贵。当地人买不起。商场里冷冷清清，没有生意。
不忘初心，再造鬼城
I used to go that mall daily but it keeps getting worse even post pandemic times. First my bank’s atm was removed then cinema was closed down even jaya grocer is the worse Jaya Grocer branch I ever visited. Final draw was they started to charge parking fee which is 3 rm for first 3 hours even midvalley mall is first 3 hours is 2rm during weekdays. First improve your mall then charge parking fee. I heard they asking rental prices overpriced that’s why tenants running away. Parking fee only can prove their greed😅
Wow, this mall cannot make it. I wonder what it’s like now since this video was taken back in August 2023 😆
The mall is open at 1200 p noon
I think it was past 12 pm when I went
How is the Air Quality there ?
Heavy Vehicular Traffic,... Clogged waters at the side of the Causeway,....
Are these Health Hazards ?
Hmm..I didn’t really notice cos I was there for less than half an hour 🤔
😂😂😂 u should film the disastrous exterior of the raja zarith performance hall.....its so decrepit over the queen's name.....i donch know how the royal family is not embarrass over this....i mean, would u like to see your name falling to pieces over decrepit building???
😅

Yes it is, so disappointing 😬
Ppl all working in Singappre lah. Weekend only spend money. Opposite old shop housebbah kut teh always full house ler.
Hmm..not sure if weekend is also empty like this 🤔

Prostitution at Geylang
Wow so terrible how to consider buying a unit there?
Thanks for watching
Kalau negeri PAS, pasti netizen komen hanya tau bab agama, ekonomi out…mujur bukan negeri PAS, so apa plak komen dari netizen ya.
Lousy mall. Even the cinema also closed down. The supermarket sell at high price, cannot attract shoppers.
I didn’t know there was a supermarket. Place was too empty to explore further.
@@BattytheCat-1234Jaya Grocer
Ah..I see 👌🏻
Used to go there once or twice then never go anywhere. Boring
Lay Out Mall ini tak bagus, semi outdoor, kalau hujan angin, dingin dan basah dan licin. Di Mall ini tak ada balcony untuk drop visitors, kalau hujan visitors akan basah. Parkir juga tak nyaman, yang design mall ini tak baik dan tak cocok untuk Malaysia.
I see, that’s why it’s not popular 😬
Another white elephant?
Maybe 🤔
Precisely forest city danga bay and RF
Without MTR transport System........
JB Malaysia
cannot modernize
😬
Likely a mismanaged mall. The country's universities churn out thousands of business graduates and many dozens of PhDs. Yet business management is so lacking! LOL
😅
Malaysian universities are useless, nothing they award is taken seriously.
This “ phenomena “ may need a RCI …
Hmm..what’s a RCI? 🤔
Actually what happen to this mall? It started off very good. So close to CIQ. Then after covid it dies off and never come back?? Location good what......
It seems like during covid it became like this and never came back 😔
@@BattytheCat-1234 ya my question is why anybody knows?politics? landlord issue or what? it is a good location.
@@neymarzd9706 I do not know, it could be management issues.
Overpriced, poorly built, unsafe location, too much crammed into one tiny area like Hong Kong, almost no alcohol, no fun, not easy to get to CIQ, poor CIQ and so much more. The entire mall is out of square with uneven floors so who would invest money in something potentially sinking?
What an embarasing Opera House. JB seriously needs LRT for people from suburbs move around & go to CBD on weekends...nobody wants to face the heavy traffic & limited parking spots for this lousy mall.
Thanks for watching
Economy not in circle..
Take imigrant worker...they send money home...
Now..local bussiness is down...
Many sme closed..
Why..greed ..that towkey do not learn about economy..
The entire RF development is poorly constructed rubbish and should never have been constructed. It's a hideous eyesore where those living on most apartments will never see sun or sky. There were a couple of good shops last time I went but apart from the lack of occupancy, everything just looks old and run down. Lot 1 failed because it was in the wrong place and this will too. Like so much development here the developers, and those they bribe, take all the profit and then walk away.
4 ringgit= 1 sgd still no business from sg tourists...developers losing tons of money.....copy thailand n sell copies
Well, this mall has got nothing much to offer 😬
R&F : Rosak & Fuqqk Mall 😂😂😂
😅
Im singsporean no more staying lucky can get rid of the place singaporean beware forest city danga and RF honestly
Thanks for watching 😺
What a waste of money and manpower labour to build this place.
It might revive one day 😬
"Empty Mall" should be rephrased to "Vacant Mall" ( empty box, vacant room, blank paper!). Wonder Fool .
Means the same thing
Cannot b, saw youtubers there show Q of ppls at mall atrium 🥸
Did the mall revived? This was taken in Aug 2023.
