Bali Sanur Icon Bali New Shopping Mall Open in Sanur Today 2024 

You're so welcome🙂

This is Bali now

Indonesia punya kebijakan melindungi pengusaha kecil menengah dan tidak terlalu kapitalis seperti Amerika. Dan Mall2 di Indonesia mungkin 40% wajib mengisi Mall2nya dengan barang2 lokal.

For the local population it's a bad development..too expensive..for the local shops it's not positive.

@@fransvangoolen2972 that's your own personal opinion based on what?

@@balibygary9718 This "content creator" is beyond saving. Baca jurnal, Indomaret dan Alfamart minimarket mendominasi dan mulai menggeser keberadaan warung tradisional (Septa, 2020) dan memperburuk keadaan ekonomi masyarakat kelas bawah (Wardana, Sudaryanto, dan Indrayani, 2013). Furthermore, baca juga how Wallmart destroyed local economy.

Time will tell with the traffic🙂

Oh no you should of seen the traffic later on it was terrible I was also later on eating at one of the restaurants on the other side of the road all you could hear was whistling and cars honking.

@@Violet-Elizabeth yes i have recorded the street tonight down to sindhu the traffic has increased

Some will love it some will loath it but this is the new Bali now and a sign of future plans for the island.

Yes it's a beautiful mall but so far off completion, i wish they would have waited before opening such a beautiful building.

young locals look with envy, longing and dreaming to have what tourists have, knowing they cannot and live in poverty being paid $1-2 per day. This is not Bali, this is commercialism aimed at tourists using locals to make profits. Its sad really sad to see.

and its not architecture, its a big cold concrete box building with shiny tiles, built with slave labour, nothing to be proud of.

You're welcome🙂

I'm with you 100%. This is not Bali.

@@LarsAndersen-ig9yt in Singaragah is a department store but for local Balinese & it is fabulous

@@janettemitchell6864 Anyar Singaraja Market?

I cannot speak here and say what is really going on In Bali. But Bali is moving forward to try and attract a different kind of tourist domestic & international.

@@balibygary9718it looks like locals mostly I don’t think it’s aimed at tourism more Denpasar, Sunday’s will be very busy

Yes indonesian love shopping😃

There are many modern malls in Bali, most have a wider choice than Icon Bali and at least three are bigger with Living World Mall for example, which only opened a few months ago, being more than double the floor size despite Icon Bali's nonsensical claim to be the biggest mall in South East Asia.

Excep that the location is a nonsense

Yes it's a beautiful design mall but still a long way from completion

Many thanks for your kind words, i just enjoy what I do and love sharing Bali with everyone who watches my videos. No drama and click bait titles on this channel, i do what I do for love not money🙂

This is the new Bali now, love it or hate it this is the direction Bali is moving in

@@balibygary9718 such a shame.

Yes it's a beautiful mall🙂

It's a beautiful mall but it does not feel quite so special due to all the on-going work.

@@balibygary9718 yeah it's spoilt the opening, it's screaming we need to generate income

I think you are wrong on this, i see many indonesian at all the malls (many more than tourists), they love to shop and also have the money to do so.

Anda terlalu meremehkan orang Indonesia.. Setiap kota besar di Indonesia mempunyai Mall yang sangat besar dan setiap hari selalu penuh dan itu tidak hanya satu mall bahkan Jakarta sendiri memiliki 200 mall. Ntah apa yang ada didalam otakmu sehingga berpikiran Mall di Bali itu bakal sepi dan hanya dipenuhi turis mancanegara dan ekspatriat. Lihat video itu baik2..!! Bukankah itu semua orang Indonesia dan turis mancanegara cuma 10%..?? Mungkin media dinegaramu terlalu sering memberitakan hal buruk tentang Indonesia maindsetmu jadi terpengaruh.

@@WarzoneOfficial22789Siapa meremehkan Ndul...!!! Dia komen turis tidak menyukai mall karena di negaranya juga punya banyak Mall, banyak yg lebih bagus dan bikin bosan. Dia menekankan ICON Bali di penuhi orang Indonesia bukan dipenuh turis mancanegara. Turis sadar mereka gk suka Mall, gk suka belanja . Sedangkan orang Indonesia suka semua itu😅. Jadi Mall ini untuk orang Indonesia saja😂🤣

@@balibygary9718and above all they like the air conditioning 🤷‍♂️

Bali kalau punya segede itu pengunjungnya akan kurang dibanding besarnya mall, secara provinsi Jawa timur 10x jumlah penduduk Bali

Around 12-16km depending on which area of seminyak you are staying

45 minutes - 1 hour because of traffic

@@medicay3340could he even more in a near future

@@franciscouderq1100 LRT in the future

@@francisthegreat4064 i don't think it is i am pretty sure living world mall in Denpasar is bigger than Icon

Using Sanur as a location for such large Mall is idiotic at best due to the already suffocating infrastructure.

Really????

This is the new bali

@@balibygary9718yup in the middle of and already saturated place.

🤣😂

Unless nature makes you go on the way as traffic stuck you

Many thanks, the mall is far from finished, i personally do not think it should be open, i hope it is finished when you return in september🙂

Great update Gary. Thanks. Hopefully traffic is more settled by i arrive in Sanur in Aug

Yes it will be interesting to see how icon progresses in the next few months.

It will be interesting to see🙂

Icon is a different kind of shopping experience to the art markets it's full of shops many people will be familiar with in their own countries🙂.

Mall ini sebenarnya diperuntukkan untuk orang lokal. Karena orang lokal suka berbelanja sambil jalan2 didalam mall yang adem karena dipenuhi AC. Dimanapun tempatnya di Indonesia mall akan selalu ramai karena orang Indonesia suka berbelanja.

Many thanks for your kind words🙂

Yes will be fabulous when they complete the work

Where are you sourcing your information from to make the statements that you are making?

@@balibygary9718 as a financial supporter of a few balinese families, I am in touch with their earnings and lifestyle since 1993. wages are extremely poor and what we pay for a cup of coffee is more than many of the earnings of these youngsters and older local people

@@silviofontana5144 $6 the lowest

Not long to go😃

What the fuck are you on about Bali isn't part of Australia !
