Directions: From Kuala Lumpur using Jalan Semantan. Keep left to exit into Bangsar. As you go up the ramp, there is a right turn (Jalan Damansari) into Damansara Town Center.

Info / Insights: Damanasara Town Center (DTC) was built during the good old days in Malaysia when centre was spelled as CENTER. It was one the earliest 'business park' designs that is currently the fad in the Klang Valley. In fact, give it a fresh coat of paint and slap an ubiquitous Old Town White Coffee franchise on it and nobody would have believe that someone already thought of the idea in the 70's.

What used to be Jalan Damansara is now part of the SPRINT highway to Kerinchi Link, Bukit Kiara and Petaling Jaya. The return journey for motorists coming from PJ is re-routed through a sloping Jalan Johar to work around the now seemingly obtrusive Damansara Town Center.

While there are several prominent private and government establishments located within it, Pusat Bandar Damansara's claim to fame ought to be the Immigration Office. The office is ever busy and a cottage industry of photostat, passport photo and form-filling services prospered around it. A night, you can sometimes see a long row of trucks, buses and vans lined up in preparation for an immigration raid on illegal workers. Now, that sure makes the work of the spying tontos a lot easier, does it not?

Update: As of 17th October 2011, the Immigration Office has moved to new premises at the new Kompleks Kementerian Dalam Negeri at Jalan Duta. New Map available here.
