A video posted by TikTok user @joshconsultancy has gone viral on social media. In his post, the TikToker shared with his followers the heartbreaking state of Puteri Harbour in Nusajaya, Johor Bahru.
In the 59-second clip, Josh recorded the surroundings of a shopping mall inside the Puteri Harbour commercial region. Much to his (and probably everyone’s) surprise, the mall can now only be seen with one Starbucks outlet open.
“You won’t believe what has happened. The last time I came here, which was about five years ago, things were still bustling,” the Singaporean man said in the clip. He also showed a residential apartment situated inside the commercial region, which he claimed no one is living in anymore.
The man later showed the interiors of Thomas Town, a children’s park based on the popular animated television show, “Thomas & Friends”. Thomas Town was located next to an equally kid-friendly theme park, Hello Kitty Town. As seen in the man’s TikTok, both of the entertainment parks are now empty. That said, it was later confirmed that both theme parks were closed back in December 2019.
Josh’s video was reposted on Twitter and has received over 1.1k retweets at the time of writing. Many took to the comments to share their fond memories about the time when the place was booming with visitors back then. “I have no idea that (Puteri Harbour) is so depressing now. The last time I went there was in 2015, and it was still lively,” Twitter user @JulesJulietta remarked.
