S P Setia Bhd announced that its two projects, Setia Eco Templer and Setia V Residences, were recognised once again at the FIABCI World Prix d'Excellence Awards 2023 on June 8.
Setia Eco Templer in Rawang won first place in the Master Plan category, while Setia V Residences in Penang won first place in the Residential High Rise category at the award ceremony in Miami, Florida.
Datuk Choong Kai Wai, president and chief executive officer of S P Setia, said being awarded again this year is a testament to the company's ongoing efforts to shape a better future for communities and future generations through the houses and places it builds.
"With our focus on creating a greener future, we commit to being the drivers of change by transforming the way we live, integrating sustainable practises through our developments and operations, and crafting spaces that inspire, while being guided by our recently launched Sustainability Roadmap, where we aim to achieve Net Zero by 2050," he said.
Setia Eco Templer and Setia V Residences were also named winners of the FIABCI Malaysia Property Award 2022 in the Master Plan and Residential High Rise categories in March of this year.
The 194-acre Setia Eco Templer in Rawang's east is surrounded by the spectacular Bukit Takun, Templer Park, and Waterfall Forest Park Kanching.
More than 30 per cent of the total area in the township is dedicated to green space, which includes nine clean natural creeks, three lush gardens, peaceful lakes, and verdant green spaces.
Choong said that the 'Legend of Nine Creeks' theme was created for Setia Eco Templer because nine naturally existing creeks were maintained on the property during development.
Setia V Residences is Penang's tallest residential development, standing on 1.82 acres of land along Gurney Drive.
It comprises two luxury condominium towers built over a protected heritage structure that currently functions as the residence management office. Tower A has 48 stories and 106 units, while Tower B has 31 stories and 72 units.
The apartment matches residents' modern lifestyles with one acre of six-star facilities distributed across 11 levels.
