      You have malls and shopping centres? I thought they were the same thing. Whats the difference?

        There’s no functional difference, we just use both terms. It’s a bit arbitrary, but generally once a mall is a mall we stick with that and vice versa. E.g. “Westfield St Lukes” is known as “St Lukes mall” colloquially by pretty much everyone.
