Auto-city in Juru does not merely play the role as a city of automobiles. Instead, it is also a center of business and entertainment containing world-class restaurants, banks and shops. It has even created a shopping park for ladies and a concept hall for exhibition.

The land was changed from a swamp into a city; from nil to a million of visitors and it has now become a unique landmark in the northern Malaysia that brings great hope to youngsters.

Why young people like the place so much?

It is a business, dining and automobile centre during daytime but it turns into a paradise for gathering, dining and shopping in the evening.

Auto-city used to be a land full of weeds. Sign boards were put on to sell the land but nobody was interested in it during the 1997 economic crisis.

No one could have imagined that it can actually turn into an automobile city. In fact, it has been changing over the past six years into a brand new city.

Today, Auto-city brings youngsters a crucial message: as long as you are courageous enough to accept challenges, keep exploring, creating and innovating, you will be able to make life better.

The uniqueness of the city attracted young people the most. It is indeed a dreamland of creativity as all of their favourite places can be found here.

Auto-City owner Zhang Jianfeng and Director Wang Meili have been studying in the trends and preferences of young people all these years and they introduced their concept to the public within six years.

During an interview with Sin Chew Daily, Zhang said that the most attractive feature of the city is, it is protected by 24-hour security personnel. (By LIM LIY EE/ Sin Chew Daily)
