Recently, we’ve seen many pickleball venues pop up across the Klang Valley. The sport has also become a favorite weekend activity for many Malaysians, prompting us to wonder whether this is just a passing interest or if it could be a good property investment. Producer Natalie Tan will be speaking with Mark Choo, Founder of Pickle Social Club, to gain more insights into this relatively new sports segment.
