Like many other big cities in Klang Valley, Shah Alam has a huge potential as a tourist destination. We’re planning to expand ZEN Homes and grow by another 250 units in 2019. We are delighted to be working with I-Place management, which has grown from managing a modest 5 homestay units to now more than 100 units in I City.”
