Merdeka 118 precinct will open to the public gradually this year.
PNB Merdeka Ventures Sdn Bhd (PNBMV), owner and builder of Merdeka 118 Tower, appreciates the overwhelming support and enthusiasm received from Malaysians for the recent inauguration of the tower by the 16th Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah.
While the inauguration signified the culmination of Merdeka 118 Tower’s construction, public access to the building will only start towards the end of this year.
PNBMV chief executive officer Tengku Datuk Ab Aziz Tengku Mahmud said the timeline allowed for the finalisation of essential elements within the tower and Merdeka 118 precinct, to ensure a complete visitor experience.
“We understand the public’s eagerness to explore this landmark and we are committed to delivering a memorable experience.
“But this requires preparation,” he said.
