At a ceremony held on August 7, a vision of what the new Funan IT mall will look like after its renovations in 3 years time was unveiled.

This is the concept art posted on Funan's Facebook page.

The new Funan mall will host a wide range of sports themed stores and activities, including indoor cycling lanes.

1 floor will be dedicated to IT, but even that floor will have "workshops and other interactive elements" within it.

This has caused a wide range of emotions among netizens.

Reactions to the redesign

Some quickly zoomed in on the 1 floor IT product space.
