Developer marks completion of fifth affordable housing project in KL

CITY developer SkyWorld Development Bhd celebrated the completion of its latest project, SkyAwani V Residence@Sentul in Kuala Lumpur.

The project received an 84% QLASSIC score and a five-star SHASSIC rating from the Construction Industry Develop-ment Board (CIDB), reaffirming the developer’s dedication to delivering product quality, safety and health.

The Quality Assessment System in Construction (QLASSIC) as well as Safety and Health Assessment System in Construction (SHASSIC) both serve as benchmarks for evaluating quality, safety and health aspects in construction projects.

Each 800sq ft unit is priced at RM300,000 and all have been sold.

SkyWorld Development chief executive officer Lee Chee Seng said the company’s commitment to quality is evident in its consistent pursuit of QLASSIC and SHASSIC assessments.

“Through stringent processes and thorough inspections, we deliver homes that meet or surpass industry standards regardless of the price.

“This is a testament of our commitment to delivering high-quality homes to Malaysians.”

SkyAwani V Residence@Sentul is the fifth instalment in SkyWorld’s affordable series of properties under the government’s Residensi Wilayah programme which is designed to provide affordable housing for first-time buyers in Kuala Lumpur.

To celebrate these achievements, SkyWorld hosted a tour of the project, which also included cultural performances and other fun activities.

The event gave guests a first-hand look at the quality workmanship of the development.

Construction Research Institute of Malaysia chief executive officer M. Ramuseren, who was at the event, commended SkyWorld.

He noted its QLASSIC score was the highest for an affordable home project since the assessment initiative began in 2006.
