Infra Segi Sdn Bhd, a renowned builder company, will be launching 168 Park Selayang, a white knight development project located along Jalan Kuching in Selayang. Previously known as Selayang Star City, the prominently located project was abandoned by the initial developer in 2016. This revival puts light at the end of the tunnel for buyers of the abandoned development who have been waiting for 6 years.
The rebranded 168 Park Selayang is set to be a landmark development, injecting modernity to the area with its 3 residential tower blocks and a 2-level commercial mall. Infra Segi Sdn Bhd is the approved white knight by the High Court to undertake and revive the Selayang Star City project. The founders of Infra Segi established 168 Park Selayang Sdn Bhd in 2021 with the intention of bringing the project back to life.
Infra Segi is a renowned master builder with a proven 27-year track record. It has built a few iconic and notable projects including Avani Sepang Goldcoast, Menara Surian in Mutiara Damansara, Nadi Bangsar, Scott Garden in Jalan Klang Lama, and Royal Bintang Villa Resort in Cherating, Kuantan.
Edward Lum, Chief Executive Officer of 168 Park Selayang Sdn Bhd said, “We are not new to the Selayang Star City issue as we were the main contractor appointed by the previous developer. We were as equally frustrated as the 680 buyers when the project was abandoned. However, seeing the potential of the location due to its close proximity to Kuala Lumpur, high accessibility and the rapid development of the area, Infra Segi, the parent company decided to become the white knight developer of the entire project.”

Edward added, “On resuming the construction works and reconceptualising the entire project, our main aim is to bring the perfect balance between an urban lifestyle, business and leisure to the neighbourhood. The first phase of 168 Park Selayang will consist of the construction of Block C and mall podium followed by the second phase construction of Block A starting in Q4 2022 and the final phase will be the construction of Block B which is estimated to start in Q2 2023.”
The development is set to appeal to first-time house buyers eyeing affordable properties closer to Kuala Lumpur city centre. The property is accessible via Jalan Ipoh, Jalan Kuching, Middle Ring Road 2, DUKE, and Kepong-Selayang highway.
The upcoming modern design community mall has a net lettable area of 235,000 sqft with 850 parking bays. The community mall has attracted the attention of international brands seeking retail space along the bustling Jalan Kuching.
Meant to promote community growth with a thoughtful mix of tenants and a range of amenities, the design of the mall will embody elements of nature and light to give a cosy relaxing ambience. With a target opening in Q1 2024, the community mall will be a highly-anticipated landmark for the Selayang community to shop, eat, and enjoy their leisure time.
