GOHTONG JAYA: LBS Bina Group Bhd (LBS), a developer guided by people-first values, has officially launched Rimbawan Township, a premier 315-acre development nestled in the scenic Genting Highlands, Pahang. This eco-conscious sanctuary is projected to generate a Gross Development Value (GDV) of over RM9.5bil.

Located at an elevation of 2,693.6 ft, Rimbawan Township is designed to integrate the community with its natural surroundings. The river and waterfalls form the backbone of the township, with the development conceptualised around these natural features. To safeguard the local ecosystem’s biodiversity, green corridors are incorporated throughout, creating a natural aviary skyway that allows birds and wildlife to move freely between protected green reserves.

This project exemplifies LBS’s commitment to progress and environmental preservation. Rimbawan also implements the Miyawaki Method to promote effective reforestation, enhancing biodiversity and encouraging natural succession. The township is further equipped with sponge city features, which include dense plantings of native trees to strengthen root systems, improve soil structure and significantly boost water absorption capacity. A network of permeable pathways complements these efforts by facilitating rainwater infiltration, transforming Rimbawan into a living sponge city that effectively mitigates flood risks.

To further harmonise living with nature, the development is divided into four distinct zones:

• EcoCommunity: Featuring diverse housing options, from bungalow lots to landed properties and high-rise residential units, set amidst over 9km of jungle paths, and more than 6km of cycling and jogging tracks.
• EcoCommercial: A social hub centered around a flowing river, offering amenities and commercial spaces designed to foster community connections in a natural setting.
• EcoDiscovery: A preserved 50-acre eco haven where residents can engage with nature and enjoy immersive experiences.
• EcoPlay: Naturalistic playgrounds designed to help children connect with nature, nurturing a generation that values sustainability and environmental care.

LBS group executive chairman Tan Sri Lim Hock San said: “True progress goes beyond meeting today’s needs. It’s about making decisions that ensure the well-being of future generations. As we face global environmental challenges, we must rethink how we build, live, and coexist with nature.”

Strategically positioned near key amenities and attractions, Rimbawan provides residents with seamless access to vibrant lifestyle options while offering a tranquil environment. This development sets a new benchmark in highland living, blending the beauty of natural landscapes with sophisticated modern features to promote a sustainable, balanced, and enriched lifestyle.

Bayu Hills is a development comprising 642 residential units.

Coinciding with the launch of Rimbawan, LBS unveiled its first high-rise residential project, Bayu Hills serviced apartments. As part of the Rimbawan eco-conscious township, Bayu Hills offers residents access to exclusive facilities and the serene beauty of the surrounding environment.

Additional facilities such as a kindergarten, prayer room, games room, swimming pool, and BBQ area ensure that every aspect of daily life is catered for. With a meticulous focus on detail, Bayu Hills offers a peaceful sanctuary that transforms everyday moments into pure enjoyment.

Comprising 642 residential units, Bayu Hills is set to generate a GDV of RM453mil. With a starting price of RM501,900, this low-density development offers a variety of layouts, ranging from 500 to 1,067 sq ft, ideal for homeowners seeking a harmonious blend of modern living and nature’s tranquillity.

“Sustainability is at the core of LBS’s development strategy,” added Lim. “Rimbawan Township encapsulates our commitment to building responsibly for the future. As developers, we are entrusted with more than just creating buildings—we shape the communities and environments where future generations will live.”

He further emphasised LBS’s dedication to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles, which have earned the group recognition as a Best Managed Company by Deloitte for three consecutive years.
