    [KUALA LUMPUR] The second-tallest building in Malaysia – the Exchange 106 skyscraper in the heart of the new Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) financial and business hub – is seeing some sky-high rents these days.

    The asking rent at this 453.6-metre tall skyscraper has gone up to as much as RM13 (S$3.70) per square foot (psf), making it the highest in Kuala Lumpur.

    Exchange 106 – the second-tallest building in the country after the newly opened Merdeka 118 skyscraper – has 92 column-free office floors, with each averaging 34,000 square feet (sq ft).
