Delighted.These malls should give impetus to the development of the local manufacturing sector rather than focus on imports.
The sad news is that the mall will be filled with China-made products whilst our manufacturing industry suffers. Where is the electricity to produce the goods?
I bet everything from mangoes, Tomatoes, Oranges, tooth and ear Picks, Tilapia, shirts, Blade, needles, Nails, ceramic tiles, panties(Supporter for holding scrots in place kekeh) will be imported from Obroni-Krom. No tilapia ...

Let us not be fooled into ignoring the true motives and intentions of JJ's so called uprisings as the truth is evident upon reflection with wisdom and a just heart. It was nothing but a dubious plan and insidious agenda motiv ...

Please think and stop your madness. May be you jumped onto the wrong thread.
What about kotoko stadium with an adjacent hotel, restaurants......
People are already buying and selling in Kumasi. Is the mall going to sell made in Ghana goods? We need factories to process all the Akomadan tomatoes, Obuasi oranges, Kwabre coco yaw, Ayease ginger, etc. As for this I beg th ...

We need the factories you are talking about so is the shopping malls.
Thanks Kofi, I am looking at a situation where we can sell about 50% of Ghana made goods at the mall.

What is stopping you from setting up a manufacturing company to produce local products? Do it and see how easy it is so you can teach others
Ghanaweb should seriously step up its game.This story was reported on yesterday so why repeat?
OTUMFUO WELL DONE BUT WHY ARE YOU ACTING LIKE THE PRESIDENT. YOU ARE YET TO START THAT OF RACE COURSE PROJECT BUT NOW JUMPED TO THAT OF ASOKWA SHOPPING MALL
ADAMU LET'S PRAY FOR OUR KINGS MORE THAN THE POLITICIANS. IF POWER ARE BEIGN GIVEN TO OUR KINGS ON DEVELOPMENT, GHANA WILL NOT BE LIKE HOW IT IS.
You have done well Nana
Whats special about malls. They are just glorified supermarkets. Remember UTC and Kingsway? Nkrumah came in and organized GNTC to make sure we added value here in ghana and retained the money in Ghana. If these malls do not h ...

HE SHOULD TELL HIS NDC COMRADES THAT KUMASI NEEDS AN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. WHO GIVES A FU*K ABOUT A MALL?
Why didn't Kufuor build the International airport. He had a chance of building the International airport and the inland port and failed us and you think the Ashanti hating ndc will build you an international airport?

we need factories and industries to process our raw matrials to move our country forward and get our youth train in factories and industral processing procedures and not engaging our fecture youth in buy and sale business.
Excellent job Otumfuo, Kumasi has been ignore for modern developments and this shows the new beginning.
In Ghana, a "Mall" is a cluster of stores that sell overpriced foreign goods; a place where the nouveau-rich go show off, the idlers go get some air condition and pretenders to cover up their poverty.
Recently a "Husband Shopping Center" opened in Ghana, where women could go to choose a husband from among many men. It was laid out in five floors, with the men increasing in positive attributes as you ascended. The only rule ...

Leaders without brains - please rid the city of filth first before thinking about mall.

Thi project has been going on for over ten years. The asantehene had to fight the kuffour and mills government to allow this to happen. To me even if people don't agree, Mahamma is a good man. He allowed the project to happen ...

Nana what happened to the project at race course?
Ghanaians want housing and not market . Bring social life to the people.
so sad a case yet we are happy of the prospect of a shopping mall when in fact all the products which are going to be sold or most come from outside Ghana. We are collapsing our industries lands to providing shopping centres ...

BUILD MODERN CAR LOT FOR THE CONVINENCE OF 5000 FOR THE NEXT 15 TO 20 YEARS . 1,250 CAR PARKING WILL BE INCONVENIENCE IN THE NEXT 2 TO 3 YEARS AND THAT WOULD BE BAD BUSINESS FOR THE MALL .
WELL WELL DONE NANA. GOD RAISE YOU TO DO GREATER THINGS FOR HUMANITY
Stool money diversion in the name of private project
I will love to Advocate for An international Airport name after Yaa Asantewaa or Nananoom. Thanks Otumfou
Otumfuo stayed with the step father before he becomes a stupid chief
THIS IS INVESTMENT AND DEVELOPMENT SO LET US SUPPORT OTUMFUO OK?
A King with vision,God bless you.
Please make sure the buildings are strong and well structured.
