Malaysia’s Sime Darby Property took home its first regional Best Developer title last Thursday (24 November) at the sixth annual South East Asia Property Awards 2016, presented by Hansgrohe and organised by PropertyGuru.
The developer, which beat out other national winners from six countries, was honoured for its long-term commitment to the Malaysian real estate industry.
“Sime Darby Property is a prominent developer with a 40-year track record of developing sustainable communities, and with expertise in property development, property investment and asset management,” said the judges in a statement.
Meanwhile, Thailand collected the most number of regional titles, followed by the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and Singapore.
“2016 has been a momentous year for the Asia Property Awards. Since starting 11 years ago, the Awards have always endeavoured to reward the best in local real estate and produce credible winners with a transparent entry and judging system. We have achieved this goal by developing the most detailed and comprehensive entry system of any property awards in the world,” said Terry Blackburn, Founder and Managing Director of the Asia Property Awards.
He added: “Southeast Asia’s property sector has come a long way in the last decade, and we are proud to have been a part of that growth.”
Around 400 VIPs and senior industry figures attended the glitzy event, which followed immediately after the South East Asia Property Awards (Singapore) 2016 ceremony.
