Because of the lower demand caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, many shops and outlets have generated less income. With people staying at home, it's no surprise that these businesses, even if they were previously thriving, are struggling.  While online shopping is booming in the midst of all of this, physical stores and shopping malls are feeling the brunt of the pandemic's effects. Nonetheless, a number of shopping malls were already struggling prior to the outbreak, and the pandemic did not help their situation.  Here are eight struggling shopping malls in Klang Valley: 1. Viva Home, Kuala Lumpur SOURCE: MALAYSIA MALL Except for the fact that it had a cinema and a nightclub, Viva Home was supposed to be the perfect alternative to IKEA.

Anthony Colin Bruce Chapman CBE Anthony Colin Bruce Chapman CBE (19 May 1928 – 16 December 1982) was the creator of Lotus Cars and an influential English design engineer, inventor, and builder in the automobile industry. Lotus Cars, a sports automobile business, was founded by him in 1952. Lotus was founded by Chapman in his free time, with the help of a handful of fans. His understanding of the most up-to-date aeronautical engineering procedures would be critical in attaining the significant automotive technological breakthroughs for which he is best known. His design philosophy, which he famously summarised as "low weight and good handling above horsepower and spring rates," centred on vehicles with light weight and excellent handling rather than bulking out on horsepower and spring rates "On the straights, adding power gets you quicker. You will be speedier everywhere if you lose weight." Between 1962 and 1978, he led Team Lotus to seven Formula One Constructors&
