FUN FOR ALL THE FAMILY: MALAYSIA                                                             19
WELCOMES NICKELODEON THEME LAND

                          Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon, the first Nickelodeon-themed
                          land in Asia, is now open. Set amidst ten acres of lush
                          tropical rainforest and resembling a “lost” hidden world
                          in a jungle, the attraction is part of 35.6-hectare Sunway
                          Lagoon Theme Park in Selangor Province, Malaysia.
                          The Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon attraction includes a Rain
                          Fortress – an interactive water play area using reactive
                          technology, a Water Spray Area, Giant Aqua Tube Rides,
                          a daily signature slime deluge and a variety of other
                          waterslide attractions.
                          It promises to be a young explorer’s dream. Climbing
                          “ancient temple” steps, explorers pass pineapple
                          columns and intricate carvings leading all the way up
                          to a magnificent SpongeBob SquarePants structure.
                          The adventure continues with geysers, sprouting water
                          cannons, walks along cascading falls and gooey moments
                          with the signature green slime. Running deeper into the
                          forest are suspended bridges over rivers, more thrilling
                          wet and wild activities as well as gravity-defying rides
                          that twist around trees and hills.
                          Completing the Lost Lagoon attraction are retail shops
                          and food outlets themed with Nickelodeon’s hit stars,
                          including SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora the Explorer and
                          Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
                          Sunway Lagoon Theme Park includes five other
                          entertainment attractions: the Water Park, Amusement
                          Park, Extreme Park, Interactive Wildlife Park and Scream
                          Park.
