Pre-war shophouses are a crucial part of Kuala Lumpur’s landscape, both in their cultural influence as part of the city’s fabric, as well as their commercial influence, then and now, in a more modern environment. Their continuous existence in this day and age is interesting, as there are concerted efforts by all the stakeholders involved to keep these buildings as they are, to preserve their value, both financially, and esoterically, to the city. I Love KL has always been focused on the intangible value of heritage buildings and their cultural significance and value to the city, so in this episode, we ask heritage conservation expert, Elizabeth Cardosa, whether they talk about the financial value of these pre-war shophouses, and how they balance it with what they do and their focus. This episode is inspired by this article from The Edge Malaysia. Photo credit: Unsplash

We start our monthly episode on iconic landmarks and monuments in the Klang Valley in 2025 by visiting the oldest secondary school in Kuala Lumpur, Victoria Institution. VI, as it’s more affectionately known by the public, is one of the more elite and prestigious schools in the city and has produced a long list of luminaries in various industries and fields. In this episode, heritage conservation expert Elizabeth Cardosa charts the journey of the school from its old location to its current one, the architectural style of the school and one interesting story about the school that’s not as well-known, but is now embraced by its alumni.

While there are other ways to write these days, the pen remains one of the most unique and powerful writing instruments. And the admiration for the instrument, specifically fountain pens, have led Lai Kim Hoong to set up PenGallery, a retail store that’s meant to supply these pens, and other materials, to enthusiasts. He joins us on the show to share the story of how he started PenGallery more than twenty years ago, how they pioneered e-commerce back when it was not as fashionable and mainstream, and how they reinvented themselves to remain relevant, despite challenges and threats to their existence.
