Triumphant @ Asia Pacific Property Awards
Malaysian developers are making giant strides at the prestigious award, a testimony of the fine craftsmanship of some of our property projects
SIX Malaysian developers made the country proud when they took home awards at the prestigious Asia Pacific Property Awards for various regional categories recently. The winners were Mah Sing Group Bhd which clinched 4 awards; and Naza TTDI with 2 awards. The other three were Sunrise Bhd, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur and Dijaya Corp Bhd.
Also sharing the podium were a real estate agency, Zerin Properties which clinched three awards and a Singapore-based architecture firm which won for its design of the stunning G Hotel in Penang.
A first for a Malaysian company
Among the winners, Mah Sing Group came up tops with 4 awards including the much sought-after Best Residential Property Asia Pacific award for its One Legenda bungalows in Cheras, Selangor. It is a rare accolade indeed with Mah Sing being the first Malaysian company to be internationally nominated for the Best Property category. Its Legenda@Southbay in Penang fared no less, having clinched the Best Architecture Malaysia award.
Not to be outdone, its wave-shaped office building The Icon Jalan Tun Razak was highly commended in the Best Office Development category. The awards have reaffirmed Mah Sing’s status as a premier lifestyle developer committed to delivering innovative concepts, high quality and exceptional service, its group managing director and group chief executive officer, Tan Sri Leong Hoy Kum said.
Runaway winner
Another runaway winner was Naza TTDI which garnered 2 awards. The two awards were for Laman Seri Business Park as the Best Office Development under the Commercial category and The Valley TTDI Ampang as the Best Architecture (Multiple Residences) under the Residential category. Last year, in its maiden participation in Singapore, Naza TTDI won for Best Residential Apartment and Best Development Website.
Its senior general manager (Marketing & Sales and Quality Assurance), Myrzela Sabtu said that the awards received for two consecutive years further reinforce the TTDI brand internationally after making its mark in the property sector for over 35 years.
Beating regional competitors
Meanwhile, Sunrise Bhd's 28 Mont’Kiara project beat other regional competitors to come out tops as the "Best Residential High-Rise Development Asia Pacific". Not surprisingly, the hugely popular Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, which was named the best retail development in Malaysia, also won the architecture award for the retail category in the Asia Pacific. The best golf development in the Asia Pacific went to Dijaya Corp Bhd's Tropicana Golf & Country Resort.
The sole real estate agency winner, Zerin Properties took home three awards after it was named the best commercial property marketing consultancy in Malaysia and the Asia Pacific, besides being the best residential real estate agency in Malaysia.
For the Best Mixed Use Development Malaysia, both Titijaya Group and Ivory Properties Group won for their innovative Subang SoHo and Penang Times Square projects respectively.
The Asia Pacific Property Awards is held in association with Bloomberg Television and is part of the International Property Awards to identify the best real estate professionals across the globe. Hundreds of property-related firms from over 56 countries are evaluated by a panel of experienced real estate and Internet experts.
Later this year, winners from Asia Pacific will compete against other regional winners to take the crown for the World’s best in each of the 21 categories.
