Many foreign businesses are interested in the Xang Square Tourist Complex and some of them are already booking floor space in the centre. "Some of our units were already booked last year by foreigners and local businessmen," said Jessica Lim, Senior Sales Executive of Xang Square Tourist Complex.
Xang Square is located on Don Chanh next to the Don Chanh Palace Hotel, the first five star hotel currently being built in Laos. The complex is a Don Chanh development project being undertaken by Sun Holdings Company, a Malaysian investor.
Jessica explained that the foreign businessmen who booked the complex are from Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, China, Thailand, the US, Canada and Australia. "Many people called us for information," said another sales executive. "Many foreigners are interested in the complex because it is the first big shopping complex to be built in Laos," said Jessica.
A two-day lecture to launch the sale of space in the complex started yesterday for interested people to get more details. "People have visited our office to get more details on the booking of units in the complex," said Grace Chong, another sales executive.
Xang Square is expected to be completed within two years. Jessica said that the people of Vientiane would be able to go on shopping sprees at the nation's biggest shopping centre in 2006.
Units are available for the public to book at different prices depending on their size and location. The land lease is for a 50 year concession period. There is also a discount promotion for the space. The initial rental fee is payable within 2 years depending on the progress of the construction. The customers would put down a US$ 200 deposit before then.
"I am glad the price is calculated year by year because it is quite a lot of money for me to pay all at once," said Ms Vat, a local businesswoman interested in the complex. She said that a 4 x 4m piece of floor space cost US$ 30,000 for 50 years. So it is only US$600 per year or US$ 50 per month. "I am interested in it, but it is quite a lot of money so I will discuss it with my boyfriend first," said Vat. "It is good for businessmen who have a lot of money," she added.
The two-storey shopping complex will be built on 96,876 square metres and consists of 1,500 different units.
The complex will not only have the basics of any modern building, such as a centralised air-conditioning system, escalators, elevators, restrooms and public phones, it will also consist of a food court, restaurants, an exhibition space, an information counter and board, a medical room and foreign exchange counters. The complex also will provide a large area for parking cars and motorbikes.
Exhibitions, game shows, artistic performances and other entertainment will also be held at the complex to make it the centre of attraction of Vientiane. It will be more than just a place for shopping. "It will be a place for a new entertainment experience for Lao people," said Jessica.
Future developments on Don Chanh include hospitals, colleges, gas stations, commercial areas, apartments and office buildings.
