PETALING JAYA, June 22 — Malaysia’s first-ever Apple Store has officially opened its doors to the public. Located at The Exchange TRX, tech enthusiasts and fans of Apple were excited and queued patiently to wait to step inside the store. Designer Chen Jia, 37, from Xi’an, China, was the first person to arrive to queue.
“I’m very happy that many Malaysians can now come to the Malaysian Apple Store and explore many Apple devices. “I have visited all the Apple Stores in China, but Malaysia is the first one I’ve visited abroad.” Chen mentioned that the interiors of the Apple Stores in China and Malaysia were both stunning, though he noted that Kuala Lumpur’s was the most impressive one he had seen so far.
“I planned on getting a souvenir from the Apple Store to take back home to China,” he said. Chen was the first to queue up, but Muhammad Irfan, 25, a student, followed closely behind and was the first Malaysian to do so. “I wanted to come here to get a limited-edition gift and also to test new products.
” He arrived around 10pm with his friend and started queuing at midnight, explaining that he wanted to come early because he was worried there would be a large crowd. “When I entered, it felt really amazing. “I had never had this experience before.
“In my opinion, it is one of the best launch events ever,” he said. His friend Muhammad Shauqi, 25, also a student, he said he was happy that Malaysia can join Thailand and Singapore as a South-east Asi.
