The retail market has started well this year, with an increase in passenger traffic and a notable rise in local consumption in January, David Tang, Managing Director - Property and International Business at MTR CORPORATION (00066.HK), said. Last year, the mall occupancy rate was approx. 100%. Tang hoped that these momentum can be sustained this year.

Last year, new rents for MTR CORPORATION's malls fell by 9.5%, due to rental assistance provided to tenants. Excluding this, the overall leasing performance was close to the market.
