City of Elmina
City of Elmina spans across 5,000 acres of landbank that includes the townships of Denai Alam, Bukit Subang, Elmina East and Elmina West, North and South. While some townships have already been developed, Elmina East is the latest township under the umbrella.
“City of Elmina further pushes the envelope in the development of sustainable communities, going beyond the usual eco-friendly gestures and embracing wellness in its entirety, to create a well-balanced living environment for a vibrant and healthy growing urban community,” Mohd Salem shared.
One of City of Elmina’s features is the 300-acre Elmina Central Park. The element of wellness in the township will include a 90-kilometer cycling and jogging track, which is one of the longest tracks in the country, and a wellness community complex for the community’s leisure needs.
