Experts and property seekers distinguish the finest real estate at the 12th PropertyGuru Asia Awards Malaysia in partnership with iProperty

The 12th PropertyGuru Asia Awards Malaysia in partnership with iProperty, presented by Lim Soh & Goonting Advocates & Solicitors, today unveiled the nation’s finest real estate companies and developments during a black-tie gala held at The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur.

Welcome speech by Mr. Jules Kay, General Manager of PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards and Events

Celebrating success across the full spectrum of the property sector, this year’s programme combined the insights of an independent judging panel, comprehensive market data, and public opinion. A total of 73 categories honoured outstanding achievements in Malaysian real estate: from luxury residences to affordable housing, as well as innovative commercial developments nationwide.

JLand Group receives Best Developer (Malaysia)

JLand Group emerged as the year’s most decorated winner, gaining the prestigious Best Developer title for the first time, alongside Best Developer (Southern Malaysia) and Best Industrial Developer. Its flagship township Bandar Dato’ Onn garnered three awards, including Best Township Development (Malaysia), while the company also won for the industrial project Ibrahim Technopolis (IBTEC) – STEPEAST.

Named Best Developer (Central Malaysia), CPI Land triumphed alongside its project Tuan Heritag3 Residency. Interhill Group was awarded Best Developer (East Malaysia) while its subsidiary Interhill Hospitality won Best Hospitality Developer. Interhill Property won for the high-rise Urban Residences.

Berinda Group was awarded Best Sustainable Developer, alongside wins for the projects Ponderosa Vista and City Square Office Tower. Recognised as Best Breakthrough Developer, Faire Development also received awards for the project known as baé.

Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Selangor (PKNS) received the Sustainable Design Champion and Low Carbon Champion titles

Garnering a total of seven awards this year, Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Selangor (PKNS) received the Sustainable Design Champion and Low Carbon Champion titles for imbuing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards into its core strategies. PKNS also collected trophies for Aludra Residensi, Linkar 52, and Galeria SA Sentral.

Other developers with winning projects include Armani Group; Astaka Padu Sdn Bhd; Axteria Group Berhad; BCB Development Sdn Bhd.; City Motors Group; Coronade Properties Sdn Bhd; Country View Berhad; Exal

A milestone at this year’s gala was the presentation of the Consumer Demand Awards, a new set of honours based not on jury deliberation but on preferences of Malaysians actively searching for property on the country’s leading marketplaces: PropertyGuru.com.my and iProperty.com.my. These data-driven awards celebrated the developments most in demand among property seekers nationwide and overseas.

The inaugural Consumer Demand Award winners are City Square Office Tower by Berinda Group; Leisure Farm by Mulpha International; Mutiara Central Cheras by Mutiara Johan Group; R&F Princess Cove by R&F Development Sdn Bhd; and The Exchange 106 by Mulia Property Development Sdn Bhd.  

In another consumer-driven segment, the People’s Choice Awards returned this year, recognising 10 developers in Malaysia as the most trusted and preferred by residents. The winners are Berinda Group; CPI Land; Gunung Impian Development Sdn Bhd; Mah Sing Group Berhad; Malton Berhad; Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Selangor (PKNS); Platinum Victory; Tiland Group; Tropicana Corporation Berhad; and TRX City Sdn Bhd. The winners were voted for by the public from a shortlist of 30 leading developers.

Datuk Sr Mohd Salem Kailany, group chief executive officer of KLCC (Holdings) Sdn Bhd, accepted the Real Estate Personality of the Year title from the editorial team of Property Report by PropertyGuru for leading one of Malaysia’s largest REIT and overseeing landmark assets such as the Petronas Twin Towers. Dato’ Sri Jerry Kwan Aik Khai, founder and managing director of JRK Holdings Berhad, received this year’s Rising Star award from PropertyGuru.com.my and iProperty.com.my for inspiring Malaysia’s next generation of developers: transforming his construction firm into a renowned developer specialising in high-rise structures and more.

Jules Kay, general manager of PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards and Events, said: “Our awards in Malaysia have diversified over the years to not only celebrate real estate excellence, but also capture the pulse of the market. These accolades reflect developers’ willingness to innovate and harness the power of data to give consumers a say in the selection process, with the support of Malaysia’s two leading property marketplaces. The awards match the real needs of property seekers, with winners exemplifying a broad spectrum of value, from the highest tiers of luxury to the most affordable spaces. The awardees also offer a snapshot of Malaysia’s diverse real estate segments, which continue to serve those who visit, work, or seek a place to call home. Malaysia’s award-winning developers offer lifestyle and investment propositions that even extend beyond its borders, adding an international element to the winners’ lineup.”

Datuk Ar. Ezumi Harzani Ismail, chairperson of the independent panel of judges, said: “As our selection process expands beyond the perspectives of fellow judges to include the voices of consumers and property seekers with genuine market aspirations, the accomplishments of this year’s winners stand out as truly well-rounded. We remain impressed not only by the advancements in development and design but also by the dedication of developers to exceed sustainability expectations, addressing market demands while being mindful of environmental responsibilities. It is also encouraging to see projects seamlessly integrated into their wider communities, from transit-oriented developments to townships and spaces that support remote work and mixed-use living. With these outstanding achievers, we are confident that the future of Malaysian real estate is in excellent hands.”

The independent panel of judges consists of Datuk Ar. Ezumi Harzani Ismail, president, Malaysian Institute of Architects (PAM) 2020-2022; Ir. Ashwin Thurairajah, executive director, GreenRe Sdn Bhd; Janice Chin, director, Capital Markets, JLL Appraisal and Property Services Sdn. Bhd.; Ir.

In July, shortlisted developers presented their projects to these expert judges during a three-day selection process, also known as the Live Judging Days, in Kuala Lumpur. Scores were tabulated and verified under the supervision of HLB Ler Lum Chew managing partner Kelvin Chew, upholding transparency and integrity throughout the process.

Marking its 20th edition in 2025, the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards series culminates in the Grand Final in Bangkok on 12 December 2025. From Malaysia, 23 winners will advance to compete for the Best in Asia titles against entries from 14 other markets on this international platform.

The premier gathering comes as luxury real estate markets like Dubai and Abu Dhabi continue to attract high-net-worth individuals from around the world, according to research by Property Report by PropertyGuru, the official magazine of the Awards. Strategic government initiatives and investor-friendly policies have bolstered property markets and attracted sustained foreign investment into the region.

He said: “We are happy to introduce the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards to the Middle East to showcase one of the world’s most dynamic property markets to discerning investors and property seekers across Asia. With its appealing economic profile, attractive lifestyle choices, and developers’ commitment to considering the environment, Middle Eastern property offers far more than pure investment. This year, we aim to raise the standard of real estate in a region already defined by excellence, with its ambitious skylines, megaprojects, and sustainability goals. Through the Awards, we encourage the innovators, pioneers, and leaders of this aspirational property market to showcase their towering achievements to the rest of Asia.”

The Deputy Lord Mayor’s attendance underscored the role of the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards in driving innovation, urban revitalisation, and cross-border investment in Australia’s real estate sector.

During her special address at the Asia Connect: Melbourne event, Deputy Lord Mayor Campbell shared the vision for the city’s path forward and strategic focus on long-term development and opportunities for its multicultural communities. She also highlighted the city’s important trade relationship with Asia, as well as the impact of international events such as the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards that promote Melbourne as a great place to invest, study or live, calling it the “destination of choice.”

Exceptional liveability

Deputy Lord Mayor Campbell said: “Melbourne’s exceptional liveability is a drawcard for both domestic and international investors—with world-class sporting, cultural, and dining experiences, lush parks and gardens, and leading education opportunities, it’s no surprise we’re Australia’s fastest-growing city.”

She added: “The City of Melbourne is backing quality development like never before—and we welcome bold, visionary minds to help shape the future of our city. Melbourne is built on smart design that reflects our unique identity. But great design is more than good looks. Every building can lift our quality of life, attract investment, and deliver better housing. Our Design Excellence Program and Design Review Panel help make that happen.”

Breaking ground: Power Women lay the foundation for the real estate industry’s future

Honouring the trailblazing women who are shaping, innovating, and leading the future of real estate this Women’s Month

– The invite-only event celebrated five trailblazing women whose innovative leadership is shaping the future of real estate across Asia
– The honourees represented diverse markets, from Thailand to Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore, highlighting their unique contributions to the property sector
– The evening spotlighted women breaking barriers, pioneering sustainability, and driving transformative change in the real estate sector

This Women’s Month, PropertyGuru, Southeast Asia’s leading PropTech company, recognises women driving meaningful change in real estate. Female leaders are actively reshaping skylines and redefining possibilities in the industry.

On December 12, 2024, the “Celebrating Power Women in Real Estate” event, which followed the annual PropertyGuru Asia Real Estate Summit (ARES), paid tribute to these influential leaders. This exclusive gathering served as a testament to the resilience, vision, and impact of women in real estate.

Held at the luxurious Kandhavas Place at The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok, the VIP Cocktail Party honoured five extraordinary women whose achievements have laid the foundation for a more inclusive industry. As we mark Women’s Month, their contributions remind us that smart, innovative women are the future of real estate.

A showcase of women who lead the way

L-R: Hari Krishnan, CEO & Managing Director, PropertyGuru Group; Jessica Bianca Sy (Philippines); Ixora Ang (Malaysia); Dora Chng (Singapore); Vivin Harsanto (Indonesia); Asst. Prof. Dr. Kessara Thanyalakpark (Thailand); Jules Kay, GM, PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards and Events

Dora Chng (Singapore)

As the Residential Director at GuocoLand, Ms. Chng has redefined the development of luxury living spaces in Singapore, shaping some of the city’s most prestigious properties. With nearly two decades of experience, she has driven the success of award-winning projects like Wallich Residence and Martin Modern, creating towering achievements in the region’s real estate landscape.

“As a leader in the real estate industry, I hope to create more opportunities for everyone across the entire spectrum,” she shared. She encourages women to seize opportunities as they come, advising, “Work hard to earn respect, enjoy the opportunities, and when they come before you, you must know when to grab them.” Beyond her own success, Ms. Chng is also passionate about mentorship, striving to foster a culture of learning, sharing, and continuous improvement within her company and across the industry.

Ixora Ang (Malaysia)

A leading lady of Malaysian real estate, Ms. Ang serves as the Managing Director for Marketing & Sales and Business Development at Tropicana Corporation. With over a decade of experience, she has brought innovation to property markets from Klang Valley to Langkawi.

“At Tropicana Corporation Berhad, one of our key mantras has always been to redefine the art of living, and this award, as well as this event, is a testament to how Tropicana feels,” she said. “A huge part of that is to redefine how we work—and that means creating space for women to take up leadership roles in the workplace.”

Her next-generation strategies serve as a blueprint for the future of real estate in Malaysia, and she champions leadership that is rooted in authenticity, bravery, and collaboration. “I live by the ABCs: Authenticity—bringing our true selves to the table and accepting others for who they are; Bravery—having the courage to take up space in a corporate environment and groom female talent; and Celebration via Collaboration—recognising that success is built together,” she emphasised.

Jessica Bianca “Jica” T. Sy (Philippines)

Ms. Sy, VP & Head of Design, Innovation, and Strategy at SMDC, has been building resilience into real estate development in the Philippines. Her work in integrating disaster risk reduction into property development has weathered storms and inspired progress.

A key voice for the Philippines at the United Nations Leaders’ Roundtables on Resilient Infrastructure Systems, she has demonstrated that her designs for change go beyond aesthetics—they are about impact and inclusion. “Allowing women to take part and take lead in projects is a huge factor in making sure that women feel empowered and can feel powerful in an industry that is typically male-dominated,” she shared. “We have seen large strides with more designers, real estate developers, and people around the industry truly supporting and being female-centric.”

Asst. Prof. Dr. Kessara Thanyalakpark (Thailand)

Dr. Kessara, Managing Director of Sena Development Public Company Limited, has been a leader in sustainable innovation, pioneering solar-powered real estate solutions in Thailand. With her unwavering focus on renewable energy, she has powered up sustainable real estate development in the kingdom while maintaining a commitment to high-quality housing. She received the 2022 Thailand Real Estate Personality of the Year award.

“It is important for all of us to try and help each other, to raise the bar for all women to see that there is no limitation on what women can do or achieve, even in an industry like ours,” she said, highlighting the importance of supporting and uplifting women in real estate.

Vivin Harsanto (Indonesia)

As Senior Director and Head of Advisory of JLL Indonesia, Ms. Harsanto has been a cornerstone of expertise for over 23 years. Her leadership in consulting has positioned her as a reliable advisor on Indonesian real estate. She also serves as the Chairperson of the independent panel of judges for the PropertyGuru Indonesia Property Awards, where she helps raise the bar for industry excellence.

“At JLL, we focus on creating equitable opportunities and fostering an inclusive environment,” she explained. “By empowering women, fostering collaboration, and providing mentorship, we not only raise the roof—we change the structure altogether.”

Celebrating women who build the future

Throughout the evening, attendees toasted to the accomplishments of these extraordinary women. The event showcased how empowerment, diversity, and inclusion work together to improve the industry.

Guests left the event with a clear takeaway: Women lead the way in shaping tomorrow’s cities.

The 2024 PropertyGuru ARES VIP Cocktail Party recognised the efforts women made in creating liveable communities, providing actionable insights, mitigating disasters and climate change, and developing sustainable, eco-friendly properties.

The expanding diversity of the Indian property market is equally exciting, offering consumers a wide range of options, from eco-friendly designs to luxury homes with world-class amenities and breathtaking views. Congratulations to all our awardees in India.”

Dr. Nirmal De Silva, chairperson of the Awards in Sri Lanka, said: “Sri Lanka has experienced remarkable transformations in recent years, complemented by a real estate market that continues to attract international property seekers. The return of the Awards this year highlights this progress, showcasing luxurious villas and homes across the island, from Colombo to emerging cities, fuelled by significant infrastructure developments, including ports and airports. Congratulations to all the winners of this year’s awards.”
