As the crowd returns to the mall during this festive season, Selena commented “Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru put more attention on the SOP compliance as we have seen photos of crowded street bazaars and the long queue that could risk ourselves to be exposed to the virus, therefore, we strongly suggest shoppers can skip the hassle and can bring their families here for Raya preparation.”

The pineapple Raya theme 'Raya di Desa' brings the memorable kampung scenery of Pekan Nanas and showcase some of the local farmer's pineapple-based products for visitors to enjoy.

Mr. Muhammad Amirul Ardy, Senior Assistant Director Tourism Johor said “The initiative with Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru is not only to drive traffic to the mall but also to use this opportunity while there is a crowd during this Raya to educate the public about agro-tourism attraction here in Johor while complying to the SOP.”
