Kuala Lumpur International Financial District


A lot of people have been asking about the new Kuala Lumpur International Financial District.  As far as we have been informed were showed in the following pictures for now.


The new Kuala Lumpur, or rather KLIFD (sometimes called 1Malaysia Financial Centre) is a RM26 billion project that will be built from the middle of next year (2011), as reported in the media recently.  Secondly, this project is often mistaken with the proposed development of Sg. Besi Airport, which was also envisioned to become another Financial Centre, or rather an Islamic Financial Centre.

The fact is KLIFD is not Sg. Besi as Sg. Besi site has been launched in a Master Plan Competition for Bandar Malaysia.


This project is situated on a 34.4 hectares of land near Jalan Tun Razak and Bulatan Pandan (SMART Tunnel).  This project is being developed by 1Malaysia Development Board.

The development was previously known as "Dataran Perdana" which is synonymous with the development of Pudu's Pasarakyat Bus Terminal.  It was been told that two lines of the proposed MRT for Greater KL will inter-changed at this new urban area.
