The festive spirit is alive and well at the malls CNY Mini Bazaar which features great deals from a variety of retailers. Shoppers who make a minimum donation of RM5 will receive gold coins to make a wish at the Wishing Well, where proceeds will go towards aiding B40 communities in partnership with the Subang Jaya ADUN.
Although the festive season this year looked slightly different due to the second nationwide Movement Control Order put in place, shoppers can still enjoy a Chinese New Year atmosphere and shop for their necessary items safely at Sunway Pyramid.
In order to adhere to government mandated Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), reunion dinners were limited to those within the same household, restaurant dine-ins were not allowed and any travelling for essential purchases were limited to 10km – this all made for a quieter Chinese New Year, a stark difference from the usually bustling cities and towns alight with cheer and merrymaking.
Now, with the conditions of the MCO being relaxed, Sunway Pyramid would like to welcome all shoppers to experience the celebratory cheer of Chinese New Year at the mall with various activities and initiatives put in place.
Sunway Pyramid General Manager Jason Chin says, “Celebrations this year, albeit a slightly quieter one has given us time to reflect on what is important and what matters. At Sunway Pyramid, we want to provide our shoppers the opportunity to experience some Chinese New Year cheer, and at the same time share our blessings with those who need it most. While we are still in the midst of uncertain times, all of us at Sunway Pyramid will continue our efforts to make it a safe, secure place for those who choose us as their preferred lifestyle destination. Your safety is our priority, and your safe space is our safe space too – that is our promise to all our customers.”
For those who intend to continue their festive shopping, Sunway Pyramid is extending its CNY Mini Bazaar from 25 February to 7 March at both concourses. At the Blue Concourse, shoppers can take their pick from traditional attire retailer Oriental Noble, snap up comfortable sandals at Havaianas, get the coolest sneakers from Showcase, or get a trendy outfit from New Era.
The Orange Concourse will host other trendy fashion outlets such as MPSY and 3Bulbs, as well as skincare specialist Dr Ko. Whether they would like to stock up on their CNY snacks, buy decorative items or simply purchase gifts to be shared with loved ones, there is something for everybody at Sunway Pyramid.
Giving with heart
In the spirit of celebration and togetherness this ‘Niu’ year, Sunway Pyramid is doing their part in helping the B40 communities’ wishes come true.
From 26 February to 7 March, Sunway Pyramid is collecting donations from the public to help other families with their daily necessities, particularly those who have had their incomes and livelihoods impacted by the MCO.
In collaboration with the ADUN of Subang Jaya, YB Michelle Ng, Sunway Pyramid is targeting to collect and donate RM20,000 to B40 communities of the ADUN’s choosing. The beneficiaries include single mothers who will receive RM50 vouchers to be spent on essential items according to their needs.
Generous Malaysians who intend to participate can do so by making a donation of RM5 or RM10 to get gold coins that they can use to make wishes at the Wishing Well in the Sunway Pyramid Orange Concourse on LG2. For every RM5 donation, shoppers will get one gold coin, whereas they can get three gold coins with RM10.
In conjunction with Chap Goh Mei, which marks the very end of the Chinese New Year festivities, shoppers who make a donation at the wishing well from 26 to 28 February will be given an extra gift of a mandarin orange in return. Signifying blessings, the orange can also be used for the shoppers to make a wish for themselves.
