KUALA LUMPUR, July 6 2023 – UEM Sunrise Berhad (UEM Sunrise or the Company) has taken home multiple accolades for the Company’s latest offerings, The MINH Mont'Kiara and The Connaught One, at the esteemed Asia Pacific Property Awards 2023-2024 (APPA) held in Bangkok last month, putting them in the global spotlight.
Up against various property developers around the Asia Pacific region, UEM Sunrise's The MINH Mont'Kiara has won two five-star awards for the Best Landscape Architecture and Best Residential High Rise Architecture, as well as being the winner for the Residential High-Rise Development under the Malaysian category.
Meanwhile, The Connaught One in Cheras, UEM Sunrise's first transit-oriented development (TOD), has bagged two five-star awards under the Malaysian category for the Best Apartment/Condominium Development and Best Commercial High Rise Architecture.
It was also nominated for the Best Commercial High Rise Architecture in the Asia Pacific category, earning the residence an award presentation in London.
UEM Sunrise Chief Development Officer Mardiana Rahayu Tukiran, who was present at the APPA Gala Dinner and Awards Presentations in Bangkok last month, said: "We are incredibly proud that both our latest developments, The MINH Mont’Kiara and The Connaught One, brought home more prestigious awards as well as, this time, being recognised in the Asia Pacific for their designs and offerings.”
“The respective teams worked hard to ensure that we design homes that are not only value-driven and future-proof but also accompanied by exceptional design concepts and practicalities to cater to our homebuyers' varying lifestyles. Us bringing home these honours is a testament to that.”
She added that APPA’s panel of judges consists of professionals of diverse backgrounds and expertise from all over the world, as well as their selection process and criteria that emphasise the developments’ unique and innovative designs, location, surrounding points of interest and target market, to name a few further strengthen the Company’s standing of being one of the renowned property developers in Malaysia.
