The awards, which pay homage to the premier real estate developers and the developments for challenging the boundaries of innovation, architecture and functionality, will see more categories as well as the return of the coveted All-Stars Awards.

The awards will also give reverence to stakeholders of the tourism sector of which the hospitality industry, and hotels, in particular, are affiliated with.
Among the first of the property developers to participate in next year’s prestigious awards is I-Bhd, the master developer behind the RM10bil i-City Selangor Golden Triangle (SGT) project. The development in Selangor’s capital city has hatched to become one of Malaysia’s latest masterpiece that pushes the boundries in property development.
Vying for the Proximity Award for Best Integrated Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), SA Architects director Tony Mak is confident that i-City SGT’s masterplan design will fulfil all the criteria of the award.

“Located on the Selangor growth corridor along the Port Klang-Shah Alam commercial, industrial and residential zones, it is visioned that i-City SGT shall become an active urban oasis, a new landmark city that contains advanced urban necessity such as office blocks, hospitality, retail and urban habitat,” said Mak.
This award category will go to the transit-oriented development that epitomises the work, play, live and learn concept and is built with a choice selection of amenities within the neighbourhood’s walkability range.
