About MABA Suitez

MABA Suitez (sometimes searched as "MABA Suites") is EXSIM's Merdeka 118 development — a joint-venture redevelopment between EXSIM and the Malaysian Basketball Association (MABA), rising on the former 1.328-acre Wisma Maba site along Jalan Hang Jebat, Kuala Lumpur — directly opposite the Merdeka 118 precinct. The RM800 million development comprises 60-storey twin towers with roughly 1,000 to 1,300 units reported across different sources, mixing serviced apartments (484–657 sq ft) with office suites from 323 sq ft.

Groundbreaking was held on 30 November 2025, with EXSIM targeting completion in 2031. As part of the joint venture, MABA is relocating into a new 3,000 sq ft headquarters within the development, complete with a dedicated three-on-three basketball court. Proceeds from the project are earmarked to fund at least RM170 million in long-term financial assets for Malaysian basketball, including RM120 million set aside to repurchase units for rental income.
