Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon perfectly complements Selangor’s existing array of attractions and will also be a boon to the nation’s growing tourism industry.”

Tan Sri Datuk Seri Razman M. Hashim, deputy chairman of Sunway Group, noted: “We are pleased to have worked with Viacom International Media Networks in bringing the first ever Nickelodeon-themed attraction to Malaysia.
