The most interesting project is Asiatique the Riverfrontby TCC group located on the bank of the Chao Praya River, with a total land area of around 72 rai. It had its official grand opening on 27 April 2012, although they opened their doors in February. This shopping area has become one of the most fashionable for people in Bangkok over the past few months, due to the very attractive design and location. Another interesting centre is The Promenade on Ramindra Road by Siam Retail Development Co.ltd. This centre is the new shopping mall from the developer of Fashion Island, and it shares the community mall concept.
In addition, many community malls were added to the market in the previous quarter, especially outside the City area, including Vue lifestyle by The River, Ton Soong Avenue Phase 1, Int. Intersect and Park Village Rama 2. Many community malls were opened in the large residential areas of Suburban Bangkok to attract local shoppers.

Shopping malls represent 60%ofthe market with more than 3.4 million sq m of space; 29% of shopping mall space is in the City area, and approximately 23% is in the outer City area. Hypermarkets form the second largest share with nearly 665,000 sq m, but nearly63% of them is in Suburban Bangkok.
Many community malls have been added to the Bangkok retail market during the past few years, and their total area is now around 625,000 sq m, only 40,000 sq m less than the total area taken up by hypermarkets.

The community mall is becoming ubiquitous in Bangkok and it is forecast that by the end of 2012 their total area will match that of hypermarkets. The extensions of mass transit lines and the development of small clustered residential areas in the suburbs necessitate the need for some
form of shopping complex that can serve the needs of the local community. This is also an advantage for the city as a whole in that people do not need to travel long distances to do their regular shopping, which helps to reduce traffic, fuel consumption and pollution levels.

The future supply scheduled to be completed in the second half of 2012 amounts to more than 298,000 sq m, with approximately 206,000 sq m in shopping malls, while the rest is in community malls. Approximately
172,000 sq m is scheduled to be completed in the last six months of 2012 in the outer City area.
The majority of the future supply will be in the outer City area, with approximately 226,000sq m, or half of the total future supply, scheduled to be completed in 2013. This is primarily from the introduction of a
number of large-scale shopping malls including gateway ekamai, Water Pavilion and In Square.

The take-up rate in all areas in Q2 2012 made slight gains from Q1. The first half of the year presents many excuses for spending, such as the January New Year holiday, Chinese New Year, Songkran Festival and
Back to School events and this is a strong period for the retail industry which is often reflected in higher take-up rates.
The average occupancy rate of all categories, except supporting retail, is more than 95%, while the take-up rate of supporting retail was nearly
87%, with not much movement during the past few years.

Retail sales in 2Q 2012 were similar to the previous quarter, although still higher than the past few years. Christmas, New Year and Chinese New Year as well as Valentines Day in the first quarter as well as the
Songkran Festival and Back to School events in the second quarter of 2012 encouraged spending at retail centres.

The average rental rates in every area in the second quarter were similar to the first quarter. The City area has the highest rental rate, with most
retail developments in the CBD area and located along mass transit lines as well as in office buildings, which are more convenient for shoppers.
