(MENAFN- Gulf Times) West End Park, the entertainment and shopping hub close to the Industrial Area, has been renamed Asian Town.
It is the first such facility in the country to be dedicated to expatriate workers, according to a statement.
The sprawling complex attracts a huge number of expatriate labourers, especially during weekends, as well as families. It has a big shopping centre, cinema halls, a cricket stadium, an amphitheatre, auditoriums and eateries.
A spokesman of Ibin Ajayan Projects, which has been running the facility since December last year, said the name change was intended to reflect the actual purpose of the facility. He said Asian Town was the original name suggested by the authorities for the facility, which has been designed as an affordable shopping and entertainment hub for expatriate workers.
With a new name and logo, visitors can also expect more activities, with many new facilities to go operational very soon, the statement adds.
A new shopping centre - Plaza Mall - will become functional this month, with a number shops offering a wide range of products.
