KLANG, August 30 — GM Klang is illuminating the city’s nightlife with Terang Kentara, a large-scale projection mapping performance that merges digital art, visual technology, and local identity on the exterior of Block B. Complementing this innovative display, the shopping mall has introduced Port Seni at Pavilion 5, Block C, a creative hub uniting art, culture, entrepreneurial spirit, and the local community.

GM Klang's managing director, Datuk Lim Seng Kok, stated that these initiatives are part of the mall’s strategy to transform its commercial areas into platforms for highlighting local creativity while enriching the visitor experience. Lim emphasized that Terang Kentara’s true value lies in how technology enhances the showcase of local creativity, as demonstrated by the projection of 40 children's artworks from the Terang Junior program onto the mall’s facade.

The event, themed "Surprising Selangor," features digital visuals created from paper drawings and will be open to the public free of charge until September 13. Activities also include food trucks, creative workshops, interactive experiences, cultural performances, and community stalls. As a tourism ambassador for Klang, Lim aims to elevate the city’s allure by combining heritage and modern experiences like Terang Kentara, thereby enticing visitors and bolstering local economic growth.

Port Seni, created to bridge creativity, heritage, and trade, will feature art exhibitions, interactive workshops, creative demonstrations, and weekly bazaars. This space offers local artisans and entrepreneurs opportunities to unveil their brands, gauge market response, and forge new collaborations. Tourism Selangor’s chief executive officer, Chua Yee Ling, highlighted that the GM Klang initiatives will enhance Selangor’s tourism portfolio by integrating technology-driven creative experiences.

Furthermore, art can define a destination’s identity, while the tourism sector provides a vital platform for artists to showcase their work to a broader audience, fostering deeper connections between the tourism and creative sectors that benefit the local community.
