Singapore's Oldest Shopping Malls

Many of Singapore's oldest Shopping malls or shopping centres are opened in the late 1970s.
Many of these shopping centres are now tucked away with poor mix of shops. Many of the older ones are popular with renovation contractors and maid agencies.
These shops are not a popular draw of crowds in Singapore who wants to relax and `window shop'.
Many of these shops were developed under Period 6. And when Period 7 started, the fortunes at these shops begin to wane.
In period 8, or after year 2003 (giving it a further 1 year) before Period 8's influence start to increase while Period 7's go into obscurity.
It is interesting to note this phenomenon as we will see many business started and that prospered under Period 7, will go down or have their fortunes dwindle in Period 8.
