"At Paramount Property, we want to be a people's developer and we always offer total solutions for our customers.

Right from the start of our master planning, we consider and give importance to the different aspects of sustainability such as the environment, community, social impacts and financial viability of the development. We are glad our efforts have been recognised.

He also added that “wherever S P Setia sets its footprint, it is in our foremost objective to connect with our communities; not just creating ecological features but creating sustainable living environments that enrich their lives. For example, good infrastructure such as accessibility is a key feature in all our developments.”
