Additionally, Gamuda Berhad clinched the Most Outstanding Company in Malaysia for the Construction and Engineering sector for the fourth consecutive year, solidifying its strong position and reliability as the country's leading engineering and construction company.

"Vietnam is obviously a market with great growth potentiality for real estate developers. To leap even further in this market, we plan to rapidly expand to a larger portfolio in this country and diversify more products such as with high-rise complex projects and commercial housing. With a strong financial basis and firm expertise, the group is ready to invest more capital in acquiring new developments, including mergers and acquisitions, transfers, and bidding,” said Angus Liew, chairman of Gamuda Land Vietnam.

Angus Liew, company chairman, said that Gamuda Land Vietnam’s latest addition would be the newly acquired 2.8ha development project in Thu Duc City, which offers high growth potential.

“As a town-maker, our biggest intention in the future is still to attain a large land bank to implement the innovative master-planning concept that brings our vision of sustainable living to the communities,” he added.

Over 900 fund managers, analysts, bankers and rating agencies participated in the voting to recognise public listed companies as being the most outstanding for their sectors and markets. The Asiamoney awards affirm Gamuda’s commitment to strong financial performance, management team excellence, proactive investor relations outreach and sustainability initiatives.
