EXCLUSIVE: Singapore property players have had a strong showing with 56 shortlisted firms for the prestigious 2014 Asia Pacific Property Awards.
The city-state had the fourth highest number of contenders in the region. Other countries on the list include China with a whopping 99 nominees, followed by Malaysia with 79 and India (64).
In total, more than 490 developers, real estate agencies and architects made the cut in the 47 categories.
Stuart Shield, President of the International Property Awards, said: “It never ceases to amaze me how competing companies from the Asia Pacific region continue to raise the bar even higher every year. The commitment to excellence they demonstrate in every aspect of their profession represents the very essence of these awards.”
Later this year, the winners will compete against other winning companies from different regions for the ultimate honour of ‘World’s Best’ in the respective categories.
Interestingly, developers from the APAC region bagged an unrivalled 18 World’s Best Awards in 2013.
The awards will be presented on May 9 at a gala dinner at Shangri-La Hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
