Star Mega Mall is a shopping mall located in Sibu, Sarawak, Malaysia. The mall houses the first hypermarket in Sibu, Daesco Hypermarket and Departmental Store as well as the largest all-in-one shopping mall in Sarawak's Central Region.

Overview

The plan to develop Star Mega Mall started in 1998. Construction works began only in August 2007 on a 4-hectare (9.9-acre) land in Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, about 6 km (3.7 mi) from the Sibu town centre. The mall was constructed at a total cost of over RM40 million.
