Goodbye, Funan: A peek into the iconic mall's last day of operations

It will re-open in 2019.

The 31-year old Funan DigitaLife Mall will be closed for three years of renovations starting tomorrow, July 1.

During its last day of operations, the shopping centre will hold a thank you party for some 400 invited guests, including tenants, shoppers and mall staff.

Graffiti artist Ceno2 will be presenting his graffiti art to party attendees. The artwork will be used to adorn the hoarding of the new integrated development on the Funan site.

Funan will be redeveloped into an integrated development measuring 870,000 square feet (sq ft), almost double its current size of 482,000 sq ft.

The mall will be open to the public from 7am to 11am.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
