Many Malaysian Apple fans have been looking forward to the official Apple Store in Malaysia as we have seen neighbouring countries like Singapore and Thailand already have their official Apple store for quite some time.
Apple Store picture surfaces online
For now, those who’d like to purchase Apple products can only do so via the Apple website or through Apple-authorised resellers.
However, things might change soon after a photo of the first Apple store surfaces online following rumours of an Apple Store opening in the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) at Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur.
In a now-deleted picture shared by a user from Skyscraper City Forum, we can see that the construction workers are putting up a photo of the signature Apple logo!
