YTL Corp’s new headquarters, along Jalan Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur, spans 41 storeys.

SINGAPORE (Dec 4): Since the start of the year, some 1,000 staff working for Malaysia-listed YTL Corp Bhd have been operating out of YTL Tower, along Jalan Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur. Soaring 41 storeys high in a glass-clad structure, the headquarters of the Malaysian developer brought together all of its employees, which used to operate out of over 25 separate sites across the Klang Valley.

Before Covid-19 wreaked havoc globally, the office was seen merely as a location to report for duty and less as a meeting place to foster ideas and creative collaboration. Only after a spate of work-from-home (WFH) orders were issued worldwide did pundits attach a new meaning to the role of the workplace — one where the focus on collegial relationships is key, and conversations around the water cooler applauded.
