The office market in Malaysia’s capital city could face further pressure with the incoming supply of nearly 6 million sq ft of new space, a property report warned.

The under-construction space comprises eight buildings, the majority of which are located in the city centre, according to Rahim & Co’s Property Market Review 2025/2026.

Nationwide office occupancy rates fell to 77.8% at end-June 2025 before slightly improving to 78% by September, the report said.
