Best of 2018 - Tradition and Preservation

In this final episode of I Love KL for 2018, we look back at two episodes that celebrate the value of tradition and preservation in this modern city. First, we revisit our piece on the Wah Sang Brothers, a 90-year-old watch and clock shop tucked in the quaint town of Klang, and hear how they managed to still keep the business running all this while. Later, we pay another visit to the now iconic Zhongshan Building, and trace back its history and evolution from an under-utilised, old building, to a modern cultural hub that houses the who’s who in the scene.

Produced by: Haniff Baharudin
