LALAPORT BBCC (Food Court/Shared Workspaces)

LaLaport BUKIT BINTANG CITY CENTRE - is a genuinely pleasant place to spend time, it’s spacious, comfortable, and has a welcoming ambience.

Over the years, during my many visits, I’ve noticed that the top floor food court, particularly the shared workspaces, has attracted a very diverse mix of visitors, including travellers, casual visitors, and individuals who may simply be looking for a place to rest or recharge.

There used to be two workstation areas (near Mixue and Tealive), and I appreciate that one of them has since been repurposed. I also want to be clear that I hold no negative views toward anyone, regardless of their background or circumstances. In fact, I strongly believe in and support community and CSR efforts that assist those in need.

However, the current situation around the remaining shared workspace has become somewhat challenging. The high demand for limited seating and facilities sometimes makes it difficult for students, office workers, and paying customers to use the space comfortably for its intended purpose. Previously, it felt safe and convenient to briefly leave personal belongings while ordering food, but now it requires extra caution.

Additionally, there are occasional issues with cleanliness and prolonged use of the space without turnover, which affects the overall experience for others.

Perhaps it would be helpful for management to review how these shared workspaces are managed for example, by ensuring fair access, maintaining cleanliness, and balancing the needs of all visitors. A thoughtful approach could help preserve the welcoming atmosphere while also ensuring that customers can continue to enjoy and use the facilities comfortably.
