Poised to transform town
MBI International’s two integrated township developments of Desa Ku and MBI Soraya are all set to change the face of Kulim, Kedah.
Located at Padang Meha, the mega projects will also stand tall as unique tourist attractions with their distinct lifestyle concepts.
Designed to amaze the senses with their creativity, the townships are distinguished by charming residences and commercial lots, comprehensive facilities, lush greenery with ample open spaces, and stunning landscaping.
MBI International founder Tedy Teow said the developments would provide more than just homes for residents but also create job opportunities and new recreational spots for the locals besides drawing in tourists from nearby states.
"This is our way of helping to stimulate Kedah's economic growth. We have created infinite possibilities for the community.”
Desa Ku
Sprawled across 248 acres of freehold land, this mixed undertaking will be a vibrant township with 2,000 residences and shop offices.
There will also be a 12-acre Agro Park and a 47,000 sq ft convention centre. The former strives to reduce the carbon footprint on the environment while the latter is set to be the biggest convention centre in the northern region.
Categorised into five phases, Desa Ku offers single, double and three-storey bungalows, semidetached and terraced homes, all featuring aesthetic architecture and generous living spaces.
Meanwhile, the double-storey shop offices come with lavish builtups, an open layout and ample parking spaces. Fronting the Butterworth-Kulim Expressway (BKE), excellent visibility is assured.
Desa Ku is easily accessible via the BKE leading to the Kulim Hi-Tech Park and is well-connected to established townships like Sungai Petani, Lunas, Seberang Jaya and Butterworth, where a myriad of lifestyle facilities and key infrastructure await.
Within close proximity are also the 300-acre SME Kulim Industrial Area and Inokom Corporation Sdn Bhd, one of the largest light commercial vehicle assembly plants in the northern region.
The proposed Kulim International Airport and highway connecting Kulim to Bukit Mertajam in Penang, when completed, will further enhance the value of Desa Ku.
While residents are on cloud nine with their dream homes, Desa Ku has also been hogging the limelight with its impressive landscaping.
Enter a world of fairy tales, cartoons, lanterns and sculptures that are spectacular by day and dazzling by night set aglow with LED lights.
Adding to the charm are a Japanese garden, English garden, cactus corner and organic vegetable plots, among others.
Coming soon is a Food Street, handicraft market, entertainment hub, Arowana Museum, Rainforest Museum and Exotic Street.
Exotic Street will focus on the cultures of Malaysia, China, Vietnam, Singapore, South Korea, Japan and Thailand.
